Author. Web Developer. Nerd.
I usually avoid posting politics, but it needs to be said. Our country is not in a good place. I support #NoKings and all efforts to oppose racism, misogyny, and anti-LGBTQ policy. If any of this offends? That’s fine, you were not my target audience anyway. Farewell.

On the mountain again for the upcoming holiday! I’ll be trying to get some writing done while I am here. I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe 4th of July!

Been quiet here a while now. There’s been a lot in my personal life that has kept me from giving my books much attention. However, I did find out today that Ledding Library in Milwaukie, OR accepted “A Taste of Darkness and Life” into their collection. 😊

Feels good, y’all. Support your libraries!

Cover Reveal!
Fellow Midnight Tide author M.A. Brown is releasing a new book in August!

"The Seventh Sister is an epic dark romantasy set in a lush and immersive world with fairytale like elements, classic romantasy vibes, and an edge of your seat pace."

This looks great, and I can't wait!

What is a Seeker? In the world of Beregoth, the Seeker's are a loosely organized guild of explorers, monster hunters, prospectors, and historians. Adventurers, in other words. In the Seeker's Kitchen, book one "The Fae Ingredient" we follow Amandine, who is working for a grumpy old chef as a scull.

Hey, East Coast readers! Do you like snarky witches? Fae mobsters? Diverse casts of quirky and queer characters? Fellow MTP Author Lou Wilham is going to be at Read the Rainbow in Havre De Grace, MD, this weekend! Go and say hi, and maybe pick up your own signed copy of "An Offer Fae Can't Refuse"!

So it appears that Wizards of the Coast has changed course and put the SRD for the newest Dungeons and Dragons edition into a Creative Commons license. I haven’t had time to dig into it yet, but the possibility of being able to turn the world in my books into a setting for TTRPGs is compelling.

It’s release day for author C. Vonzale Lewis! Her new novel, Lineage, is a contemporary adult fantasy story about forbidden rituals and shady illuminati like organizations. Magick, mystery, evil plots and the possible return of an Old God. Nicole Fontane never wanted power, but now it might save us.
