The Jaguar on "How to Review Stuff"

I often hear people say they feel weird about reviewing things they like because they don’t know what to say. This came up in the chat channel the other day, and after our discussion Maigen said, â€...

Short Story Download: "Brass Candy Girl"

My exclusivity period for "Brass Candy Girl" is up! Which means I can now share it outside the anthology it was published in. This story is a sequel to the short story "Elements of Freedom," which int...

It's the Little Things (Literally)

One of my favorite things is marketing fluff. I love having branded packages, with address labels and stickers and inserts and what-have-you. And I love giving tiny freebies to my buyers and backers. ...

Princes' Game Series Guide: Some Things Transcend

We continue with the synopsis. This one is for Book 2 (and as you can see, my teaser illustration is... not at all done! But it's at least recognizable. Jahir's the one on the right.)

While this syn...

Fixed Metadata, Yis!

Finally all of the Dreamhealers books are showing up as being part of the same series on Amazon. I'm so glad they fixed this. <3

Business Book Introduction: Priorities, or Knowing What You Really Want

As promised, I'll be serializing the business book as I tidy it up for publication. This intro, though, is entirely new, and I felt like it was a really important topic to address.

Mindiriel with Rabbit

We are slowly putting together a D&D game in the chat server, and this is my character, Mindy the derpy sorcerer. She walks into walls (like, literally, I think she has the lowest DEX score of any...

Princes' Game Series Guide: Even the Wingless

Now we get into super spoiler material. As I promised, this synopsis gives you enough context to understand the characters, setting, and background; since this is the first book, there's a lot of cont...

June Book Sales and Analysis

Once again, back to reporting on numbers! And June was an odd, odd month.

First, things that affected sales: last month I started experimenting with Goodreads ads. Unfortunately I also started exper...

The furries (and I) are done

*drags self to airport*

Awesome Costume

Honestly you can fling a brick at a furry con and hit sixty amazing costumes but I like this one for exploding the myth that they all look like cartoon mascots. :)

View From the Convention Center Balcony

Hiking to my 10 pm to 11:30 panel, Lord help me. I'm usually in bed by 9:30! But Pittsburgh is really lovely at night. I'm not sorry to have seen it.

Fail Versus Chocolate Store

When Tango told me there was a chocolate store in downtown Pittsburgh I HAD to go. >.>

Dreamhearth Teaser

Finished! With marketing fluff.

Dreamhearth Cover

Y'all get to see it full-size before anyone else. :)

That Expansive, In-Between Projects Feeling

So I just realized that I'm done writing Dreamhearth. (No, really. That "I'm still involved with this project" feeling doesn't wear off quickly.)

Done. And it's still June. Barely June, but...

Dreamhearth Cover Incoming

I want Jahir's boots.

Dragon Bros, Con't

Since I liked the dude from the previous page, I decided to explore his relationship with his dragon. As you can see, they're pranksters. ("He's eating my head!" "His head's so tasty, nom nom nom.") 2017-06-26 14:01:00 +0000 UTC View Post
