Jezelle: Thief of Forks Book Trailer

Just a quick mid-week post. The weather has been horrendous here in the Boston area, but it gave me a little extra time (two extra work-from-home days while we dig out), so I threw together a book trailer for Jezelle: Thief of Forks. I think it does a good job of capturing the book’s moodContinue reading “Jezelle: Thief of Forks Book Trailer”

New project, The Last Knight of Norn

I’ve been working on a new tale set in Lucardia that isn’t directly connected to my other plotlines. Something completely stand-alone. Below is a rough draft of the first chapter. I’m curious to know if it’s hitting. The chapter reads almost like a short story, so I can go that route with a few tweaksContinue reading “New project, The Last Knight of Norn”

I swam the market until I hit a rock

I’ve decided to stop my query process for Jezelle: Thief of Forks and switch gears to self-publishing the book. On the surface, that may look like defeat—another swing at traditional publishing and missing—but that’s not what this is. This is me looking directly at how this business actually works, looking at how far Jezelle swamContinue reading “I swam the market until I hit a rock”

A return to why I write

I believe in circles—in fact, I’m a bit obsessed. The Oroborus is Emperor Vesper’s heraldry for a reason. I’ve been writing a lot of posts about my quest to define my writing world, and I apologize for bringing you along on this iteration, but perhaps it is helpful. I’ve touched on everything below in theContinue reading “A return to why I write”

Confession of a Milennial writer

As many of you know, I stepped back from blogging to focus on my fiction. It has given me time to rethink and reevaluate. I’ve been doing a lot of soul searching, holding up the mirror and seeing what I see. I’m coming up on the sixth year of this journey. In my last post,Continue reading “Confession of a Milennial writer”

2025, a year in review

It’s that time of the year again to look back and see how far I’ve come. It’s not really what I want to do right now, as I have quite the sinus infection- not the ideal way to bring in the New Year. Really, I want to wrap in a warm blanket and stare atContinue reading “2025, a year in review”

Quick Update

First off, Happy Holidays! I hope you are all safe, warm, and jolly. I apologize for the lag in posts, but all my free time this past month has been devoted to rewriting Jezelle: Thief of Forks. I tried to get to this post on Saturday, but it just didn’t happen. Better late than never,Continue reading “Quick Update”

A visitor at Oakenyard

It took some time to get to this, but below is the fifth in my series of reports to Emperor Vesper Zuilkaarme on the strange happenings that occurred throughout Lucardia around the time of Prince Koen the Gray’s disappearance. You can read more about that disappearance here. To His Radiance, Emperor Vesper, Uniter of theContinue reading “A visitor at Oakenyard”
