Folks, I just broke down and bought this She-Ra/Swiftwind combo. I can't justify the purchase, but it'd be easier if I sold a few books today. So, if you've been on the fence about picking up The Maxus Cycle, today would be a fine day to give in!

Since I started taking my writing craft seriously, one weird goal I've had is to find my work in a big brick and mortar shop. Today, I found SSOC 2 at Chapters. This somehow makes me feel more legit. Even though my contribution to this particular book is small, I feel it's also mighty.

Anyways ✅️

My second book, Within the Weeping Eye, is now out worldwide. Thanks in advance for support, shares, reviews.

💪 📖 ⚔️

If you send me proof of purchase, I'll DM you a personalized message from (an) Arnold Schwarzenegger (impersonator/me).

Shares appreciated 😉

Thank you! The paperbacks are superior, imo, because they're in the old, smaller paperback format ;)

If you blog, stream, YouTube, or review for your own site or others and want a digital ARC for 'Within the Weeping Eye', message me, and I'll get you a copy. No strings attached, but if you *think* you can promo it via any channels in even a small way, hit me up!

Here's the ultra sexy cover!

My contributor copies for Savage Sword of Conan Vol 2 just arrived. Getting the TPB makes the whole thing feel more real, more immortal.

I got my shot and, by Crom, I took it! I hope you enjoy my award-nominated story, Conan: Madness on the Mound!

Yesterday was Trent Reznor's birthday. Here's a photo of Trent and me. We're totally buddies, and he'll totally remember me. Totally.

This is among my favorite #D&D art pieces ever. Now, whenever I enter nature, I'm expecting to see sh*t like this. Just feels so germane and natural.

They don't make em like they used to. Also, F*CK A.I "art".

I bought a piece of art from @gileadart.bsky.social for my second book, and then he got to doodling and sent these along as well. They won't appear in the book, but if you ever wanted to see me as I see me in my head, here you go!

If you need art for your S&S or fantasy projects, hit him up!

I'm okay with Aliens existing in the Predator continuity, but not okay with Predators existing in the Alien continuity. Know what I'm saying?
