A recent, wonderful review from Julia at BookShelfie that I think acccurately captures some of the strengths and weaknesses of In Sekhmet's Wake. #scifi #writing #superheroes

I know this person doesn't actually believe what they've posted here, but there's something deeply silly about this accusation. Given the saturation of AI stuff, it's galling to be accused of it when Sekhmet is all human (and 40% off!) But this also shows the importance of leaving positive reviews!

IN SEKHMET'S WAKE opens with a poem. Ever since reading Hirshfield's work, I was struck by how well it resonated with Sabra's journey through the second novel: If you must be heartless to bear it, is it still right to give up your heart? Hirshfield generously allowed me to use it. #writing #poetry

Perhaps the coolest thing about writing the Sekhmet series has been working with @tommyarnoldart.com on the covers. Here is the 1st version of Shadow's cover (releasing June 30), which I adore, but got changed to better fit the tone of the series when Tommy did Wake's cover! #booksky #writing #art

The very talented @vetyyr.bsky.social did the following for my 'unmarketable' post-superhero sci-fi thriller, In Sekhmet's Wake, featuring Jack the conflicted mercenary, the pugilistic pacifist Sabra, and her goth robot gf Revenant.
