Hello everybody. Here’s a little about me:

✍️I write Shinto mythology fantasy books.
I love ☕️
I read a lot of manga, danmei, yoai
Favorite anime of all time is Ranma 1/2
I have a 🐩 and a 🐈
I tutor Japanese on the side
My favorite food is pho 🍜
I think I am obsessed. I love how these turned out.

New mass market covers. I had to make a small correction on The Last Son cover, but all is good now. I think they came out pretty well for colored pencil. Trust me, they look stellar in person. I think I might have these at NDK this year.

Happy Valentine’s Day 💕

Anyone care for an audiobook with enemies to lovers, chronic illness rep, and a kick ass female lead?

AI writing and art is soulless. It takes from genuine artists in a parasitical matter, leaving the depth of creativity behind. If not using AI leaves me behind, then so be it. I rather engage with art and artists who have soul and feed my own creativity than starve it to meet a publishing quota.

Due to lack of direct sales and the cost of website hosting, I have decided to no longer offer direct book sales and my website will now be my Substack page. This isn’t a decision I have made lightly, but one I have put off for far too long.

Not only is there a child writing a diary about ICE, but someday it will be taught in schools.

I agree with many authors that promoting right now doesn’t feel right. I want to make money, but I care more about what is happening right now. I also just had a death in the family and things are up in the air for the moment.

With that said,

I started the day by getting a call about a death in the family and then I saw those horrific videos of the murder in Minnesota.

I don’t know how to thinking or feel anymore.

Ignoring the demons of this world will only get them to knock on your door.

I don’t want to just quote words by MLK Jr., I want to live them. As I saw someone else say, today should be a mirror check. Not just for our nation, but of ourselves.

Manchuria
Spilled pickled herring
Guards along the tracks
Don’t look back

Siberia
Only Borscht soup
Prisoners heading back
Don’t look back

Poland
Too many jarred fruits
Hold breath for attack
Don’t look back

New mass-market covers of the Iron Blood series are coming soon. Probably as early as the end of this week. These versions will be sold by Draft2Digital who can supply to brick and mortar stores. These books will be a little bit smaller than the Amazon versions.

Just put this phrase in my copyright page: “100% of this work, from cover to every em dash, was created by the author and not AI.”
