Are you looking for a heartbreaking story of reluctant heroes, vengeance, redemption, deep-rooted magic, and a people finding the will to rise up?
Why are there so many scammers? I just tried to hire an artist on fiverr for something quick and easy, and now, I have to deal with trying to get my money back from fiverr.

Three years after No Heart for a Thief was published, the audiobook is wrapping up production. Daniel C-M Ryder lends life and energy to this performance that will help bring new readers to this, if I do say so myself, hauntingly beautiful series.

Release date coming soon.

Only a few more hours left of the sale.

I want to thank everyone who picked up a copy, shared a post, or left a comment.

I may not have made my money back with the bookbub featured deal, but it brought in a bunch of new readers.

Tomorrow a bunch of moderates & conservatives will act like MLK only wanted people to get along. They will forget most of the US hated him and water down his anti-war, wealth-redistribution, racial equity beliefs into the most palatable version. Remember he was assassinated!

I miss old movie trailers.

Author's, pitch your book, starting with "In a world..."

In a world where stolen magic fuels power struggles, Kaylo’s ability to hear the songs of others’ magic puts him in danger from his own people and invaders. When he crosses paths with vengeful Tayen, he must confront his past and help her — before they both end up dead.

What if the worst should happen?

Then there will be art about the worst that could happen.

It's been said before, but it must be said again.

AUTHORS: DO NOT FOLLOW ME THEN DM ME TO READ YOUR BOOK!

I don't even want to read your shitty posts after that.

I see takes in bookish spaces about adjusting the five star rating system for consistency, the unwritten rules about when and how someone should rate, what counts as reading, whether people need to read indie or trad...

Here's my take: we don't need more rules for reading.

With just a couple more backers, ETHOS will reach our first stretch goal: a bundle of short stories. Then comes more art!
October 22, 2025 at 1:13 AM
We're getting close. Soon we can start breaking through stretch goals and adding more bells and whistles!
Have you backed the ETHOS kickstarter featuring @jamesldulin.bsky.social, @bshgarcia.bsky.social, @benjaminaeveryn.bsky.social, EJ Doble, Jonathan Neves & Morgan Shank. This collection will feature morally-nuanced dark fantasy stories.

I’m a backer & you should consider supporting it too

Yesterday, the ETHOS Kickstarter brought in 58 backers and raised $2,100 of the $3,500 we need to produce this amazing anthology!

Let's keep it up. Back it now and help us make this book even better!

You all are amazing! ETHOS is 50% funded! We are on our way to making this anthology a reality and adding more bells and whistles to an already amazing book.
