I needed help conceptualizing Rei's new Breaker-Type, and vinchie was kind enough to hop on with me as the armor was coming together in my head! I think i'm gonna have it look more and more like a hulkbuster over time, but for now this is almost exactly what I had in mind!
ya boi is starting to look like a really BAMF!
2025-10-19 13:09:23 +0000 UTC View PostDef gonna need a v2 for this one given the wrap wasn't as strong as I wanted it to be, so look forward to that next week, and I think a super short-but-important Chapter 46!

2025-10-13 16:12:39 +0000 UTC View PostOnly major change is a consistency error fix in 43 I needed to make. The rest is minor stuff. I wanted to get you guys something, though, because I'm off to NYCC on Wed, so I probably won't be able to post new content till the week of the 20th.
Second to last con of the year, though! Only Dragonsteel in Dec left after this!

Will probably be late tomorrow cause I have to go into the office all afternoon, but it's coming, and it's going to be a little nuts...
Also, enjoy this new sneak peek of some early concept art I'm having vinchie work on ;)
2025-09-28 15:57:44 +0000 UTC View PostEnded up working much better as a v2, but as you can see it's basically a rewrite with a LOT of added content after the first couple pages. It's not as action heavy as I initially wanted, but that's because I needed to address that important sub-plot I left hanging earlier in the book.
What happens next is gonna be... SO f*cking fun 🤩

2025-09-15 16:34:13 +0000 UTC View PostThis is probably coming Monday, but depends on what it ends up looking like when done. I'm not sure if this is a new scene or if we're replacing everything I didn't like about Chapter 42. I wanted to give a bit more attention to an important sub-sub-subplot, while also tying it into a mega development that's happening either this chapter or next, and idk if that means a new chapter or a major revamp of 42.
Either way, it will be a full-chapter ...
2025-09-12 16:19:42 +0000 UTC View PostWoke up this morning to an email from my doctor, letting me know a waitlist appointment was available this afternoon smackdab in the middle of my writing time.
It's nothing concerning, just a dermatology thing, but for various reasons it's important for me to stay on top of my skin, so getting in early is great for me.
So from my North and South American friends, look forward to that this evening! Everyone else, you'll wake up to it tomorrow!
It's not a high octane peek, but its something I and a lot of you have been looking forward too! i have NO idea what's gonna happen, so it'll be fun finding out together!

If Catcher’s mood had been improved that morning, it was nothing compared to the literal glow he had after lunch, where Rei, Aria, and Viv recounted what had happened in Combat Theory to the Saber and Chancery both. Logan himself refrained from participating, letting the others handle the storytelling...

Catcher was all energy until he and Chancery split off for morning classes, at which point Viv did an admirable job of taking over, looping an arm around her boyfriends elbow why she obviously tried to engage and distract him from whatever was going on in his head. It was almost like the old “Grant” was back, though, with Logan only answered with grunts or nods of his head. More than once Rei glanced worriedly a...
2025-08-08 16:48:00 +0000 UTC View PostHey all! Chapter 41 will be dropping this weekend! August is the heaviest part of con season (3 cons in 5 weeks) so it's my busiest time of the year both as an author and publisher.
I'll be at Worldcon in Seattle next week, and then at Dragon Con if anyone is planning to be there! Once that's over, NYCC and DSNX are spread much more evenly through the end of the year, so we'll be a little more on track.
Hope to see some of you in Seattle and Atalanta soon!

Yes "rewrite"... le sigh...
I was about 1.5k in when I was like... "Wait... Logan doing a thing here would be WAY better" and had to scrap everything. TRYING to get it done today, but I'm at Gen Con starting tomorrow through Monday, so probably won't manage it I'm sorryyyyy 😭

DEFINITELY going to have to rework some of 40 because of an important inconsistency (Valera having talked to Kamiya's former combat instructors in Chapter 39), but it's about getting it written, not getting it right!

Hey all! Sorry, I wanted 39 out to you today but The Book of Remembrance has taken up 99% of my spare time this week, my apologies. I'm taking the afternoon of July 4th to write, though, so look forward to that coming tomorrow or Sunday.
And say hello to Ueno Jasper, everyone! RakasaDemon did an incredible job bringing her to life, and some of you will be seeing her sooner than you might think! 😉
