Just a guy taking a break from the tech finance world to write The Lurran Chronicles.

Book 6 of The Lurran Chronicles has taken longer than expected, but I'm now almost done, though I still have some polishing left. Jimmy Moreland will again be lending his talents to producing the audiobook, so everything should be published by November.

Earlier today, I was taking a shortcut through a quiet neighborhood to get around some traffic in SoCal, just to see this cute stand. Of course, I had to stop for some fresh strawberry lemonade and a lemon cheesecake puck of tasty goodness.

I think the updated cover art for Book 5 turned out great! Huu Ha, the artist behind this work, really has a talent for interesting perspectives.

I've been pretty quiet on here since I'm deep into writing Book 6, but I've really been hitting my stride lately, with a lot of the loose plot threads from earlier in the series finally coming together. For fun, here's a new sketch my cover artist is working on for The Lurran Chronicles.

I'm in the process of updating the cover art across my series, as the originals were what I put together with my own amateurish efforts. Now, I'm working with a professional artist to take a fresh look at things, and here's the new artwork for Book 1.

Finally, I've been working with a professional to create new artwork for the Lurran Chronicles. Here's one of their rough sketches to give folks an idea of what they might soon be seeing on my website and future covers.

I've just submitted the audiobook of A Gateway To Galdish (The Lurran Chronicles #4) for approval with ACX. Assuming no snags, the title should be released onto Audible by the end of this month for anyone interested in listening to Eli's continuing adventures.

I don't know about other self-published authors on Amazon, but there's always something so satisfying when my manuscript's formatting actually matches KDP's previewer without weird errors. Now, Book 5 really does feel like it's just days away from release.

Harbinger Ascendant (Lurran Chronicles #2) is now live on Audible with over 16 hours of content, narrated by Jimmy Moreland. The next in the series, Fate's Tempest, is already recorded and going through approval, so it should be out in early January. Busy times!

I'm a few weeks out from publishing Book 5 of The Lurran Chronicles, and it feels crazy to think this will put the series at more than 650k words, with at least a couple of books still to go. I always knew I was a bit long-winded, but seriously?

I'm excited to announce that Harbinger Ascendant, Book 2 of The Lurran Chronicles, is awaiting final approval from Audible, so it should be published in the next ten days. Audiobooks 3 and 4 are scheduled for December, though the holidays can be a tad hectic.

I don't know about anyone else, but I love maps in my stories. Does anyone else have a memorable one they enjoyed? For me, the first that came to mind was from Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series, but there have been a lot more since then.

I'm new to Bluesky, but I thought I'd introduce my series, The Lurran Chronicles, to anyone interested in a guy from Earth's near future who is thrown into a magical prison world with other humans who don't know they're inmates.

I'm putting the finishing touches on the fifth book in my series, coming out on January 3rd, 2025. It's been a blast to write, and I'm looking forward to finding out how others like Eli's ongoing adventures in the Greater Infinite.
