Thank you to everyone who came out for @patchoulijoes.bsky.social Independent Author Festival. It was great meeting you!

I don't think War of the Hounds (based on Henry V) would be a good nominee for this year's Ursula K. Le Guin prize. But perhaps YOUR book would be a good fit? www.ursulakleguin.com/prize25

Starting next Thursday, March 6th, the Dryad's Crown ebook will be 99 cents for a limited time (US/UK only). I'd appreciate it, if you spread the word. Feel free to grab your favorite promo image and share it. Art by the incredible Daniel Irving Decena

My daughter works at a bookstore. She put together their Black History Month display, and she specifically included some of my favorite sci-fi/fantasy authors, e.g., Butler, James, El-Arifi, @clclark.bsky.social, and @pdjeliclark.bsky.social. Proof: She's paying attention to my rants!

War of the Hounds has been received! @locusmag.bsky.social says so. It's always a point of pride to be mentioned by **the** SFF industry magazine. I love Locus. It's mandatory monthly reading, cover to cover.
