What you should listen to while reading The Envoys of War!
This is just a smattering of the songs that fit. I’ve got an entire playlist with 40 something songs! Just sayin’…
Anyway, the next time you want to read and listen to some music, consider picking The Envoys of War!

Writing the sequel? Meh.
Writing the new project? Inject it into my veins.

Writing fantasy is writing "she put a dollop of butter on the porridge", realising your world does not in fact have cattle and changing it to "she put a dollop of antelope butter on the porridge"
Writing fantasy is trying to figure out what to call a French braid when there is no France.
Writing about fantasy cephalopods is typing “She winked” and having to look up whether octopi can wink (they can)

One thing I’d like my books to be remembered for are the platonic friendships between male and female characters. They’re such an important part of my books (and something that doesn’t get enough representation in stories). Romance is great, but so are platonic relationships!

THE RIVER HAS ROOTS by Amal El-Mohtar is *stunning*. I don't want to spoil anything but I need you to listen to this audiobook. Yes, it has to be the audiobook.
THE PAWNS OF HAVOC by @dlawsonauthor.bsky.social was a fun return to this series, it was cool to see Cork before the events of book 1!

The great cover update hasn’t really led to more sales. In fact, I’ve only sold one physical copy with the new cover so far in over a month.
I’ve done well with audiobook sales this month, so all is well, but if you’d like a cool shelf trophy…Envoys is waiting for you!

BOOK REVIEW! I loved @dlawsonauthor.bsky.social's original entry into this series, and THE PAWNS OF HAVOC simply delivers more of it.
If you're looking for a quick and fun fantasy novella, you can't do much better than this.

1,000 copies sold! It’s been a pretty crazy year! I’m so thankful for everyone who’s supported me and I’m looking forward to the future!
Also, over 2,600 free copies “sold” on Amazon, but those don’t really count!

One of my favorite things about getting into more map commissions lately is that I get to listen to more audiobooks while I'm illustrating and designing these authors' maps.
BTW if you need a map for your book, hit me up. Help me listen to even more audiobooks. 💙📚

I’ve been hesitant to call myself a “best-selling author” because in the scheme of things, I’m a very small fish. However, I’ve been in the Amazon top 20 for humorous and action-adventure fantasy 4 times. I also made an Oklahoma best sellers list one week.
Guess I should own it!

One year ago today, The Envoys of War was released! It’s been a crazy year, full of highs, lows, and learning experiences. I’ve met so many amazing people in the book community, so it’s impossible to tag them all, but thank you to everyone who has supported me!

I’m getting excited about my new Fantasy Rom Com WIP tentatively called It Happened One Fortnight! It features a woman who doesn’t need saving, a man who tries to save her…and doesn’t do very well, and an armor-clad cat! Here’s what you can expect once I actually get it written!

Sunday will be one year of Envoys, so in celebration, I’ve made the ebook free for the next five days. You can also pick up the heavily discounted audiobook with the free ebook for only around 5 bucks! So tell your friends! This is the banter book you need!

Let’s overplan and make a writing project timeline that will probably change several times in the next year! Here are the current projects i have in the pipeline! Note: all of these are working titles except for The Mayhem of Scoundrels, which is official!

Hey I have a book out today which makes another completed trilogy!
But I'm super duper stressed at work so I've got no time to make a fun post.
If you enjoy dark sci-fantasy, trauma/healing, found family and weird and wild worlds, check out my Inner Universe series!
