Quick update on the UNDEAD SHINIGAMI challenge started last Thursday, the 1st draft now sits at 11k words!

Solid start, thanks, in huge part to my wife, who took care of the kids on this Culture Day (national holiday in Japan.)

I truly love it when people call me Wu in their reviews.

That's literally the only part of my pen name that's not mine to begin with 😂

Test your knowledge of Japanese mythology here!

So far, no one has guessed the Kami of the week, and thus, the free ebook copy of BLOOD OF THE KAMI remains up for grabs.

So excited for this book’s release! Shields of the Empire is an epic take on the battle of Bowangpo and an introduction to the fan favorite character of Xu Shu, wrapped in a novella sized book. I loved writing it; you’ll love reading it.

Out October 18 🔥

A video for my Three Kingdoms geeks! This was such a great trip in Hubei, or as it was called back then, Jing Province.

Sorry it took a year and a half to edit it 😂

A bookstore owner told me this month that self-published writers aren’t “real authors.”

Counterpoint: We are. And we rock.

If you’re dreaming of publishing your first book, don’t let snobbish, bitter people tell you otherwise. You’re awesome, and with a bit of work, your novel will be too.

Back to Japan!
I've mostly avoided social media for the past month. What did I miss?

For those who like the cover of BLOOD OF THE KAMI, I'm pleased to let you know that the first sketches for its sequel's just came in, and they are bloody awesome.

Much respect to all my self-published friends in the UK! I've only spent two days here, but everyone I've talked to from the publishing industry made me feel small and worthless. They did so politely, but one even said that I wasn't "really" an author. You keep thinking that...
