To my HWA member friends, get a free (Yes, FREE) pdf of an excellent anthology I happen to be part of, with some amazing other authors, for consideration of the Stoker award. Please feel free to share this image to anyone you know who might be interested.

For those who don't want to click a link, here is the cover, designed by Susan H. Roddy.
The title is a middle finger to the repugnant film Birth of a Nation

Finally getting a chance to say, Combat Monsters is officially out today, and it's #1 new release on Audible. Every win is a win!

Friendly reminder for Richmond VA folks or nearby (or up to travel) Wednesday at 6pm I'll be at The Fountain Bookstore talking about the Night Witches for the release of the Combat Monsters anthology

No matter how many times it happens, getting author copies and holding your book in your hands never gets old.
For those who haven't pre-ordered it yet (paperback, audio, audio mp3, and ebook):

With the state of the world, enjoy Minni lounging like a 1920s heiress and Guinness maintaining his cat dignity

Want to read a bunch of cool WWII alternate history stories. And learn about the all women night bombing regiment? I have good news!

If I dare get up and walk around the house, Minni yells at me till I sit back down and she can return to her favorite spot.
This is why me weekends are often unproductive.

This season, never forget what's most important

While putting up my decorations this weekend, I didn't even finish putting up the tree (fake, prelit) before Minni was trying to climb in. So we are a no tree house, again.
I do have a small tree for a side table...which she knocked over at 3am

My WIP is a Sapphic Beauty and the Beast retelling where they are wizard slayers, and the Beast isn't the one who changes. This is the leads (by Diansakhu Banton-Perry).

Yes that is Guinness's name on the mountain.
No, that is not Guinness

Want to see something cool? I commissioned Dovah Designs (www.dovahdesign.com/cosplay/) to male replicas os the spell irons and bounty crystals from Two-Gun Witch. They were so good (they even light up) I had a display case made.

As a break from the world, enjoy a picture of Guinness plotting something and Minnk being terrified to warn me
