Last Chance (and Good News!)

LAST CHANCE: this Kickstarter closes in less than four hours!

GOOD NEWS: We unlocked the BONUS NOVEL!!! That means everyone who backs at $10 will get two ebooks instead of one. That makes this KS the cheapest way to grab both of the forthcoming ebooks, the Alysha short collection and the new Alysha series novel! Grab 'em if you want 'em!

*bounces excitedly*

Free Alysha Books!

The fairy godbear is giving away entire *sets* of the Alysha series so people who want to participate with the Kickstarter can catch up to the storyline. He also has a couple of leftover coupons for Marda and the business book, if you'd like to grab one of those, at the end of the thread.

Thank you, Petrov!!

The Kickstarter is eyeing the $10K ceiling, which i...

Kickstarter's Trying HARD to Make Me Write Another Book

I promised at $10K I would not only write extra material for the Peltedverse Fleet collection, but finish the partially completed Alysha novel and... we are currently at $7200. o_O

Anyway, the update has a link to the first couple of chapters of that book. Pop on over, Alysha fans, and have fun. :)

Kickstarter is Live!

All those floating Alysha stories, finally collected into one volume... plus a few more stories if we overfund, and you get to pick which! (Cameo opportunities in this KS, as well).

Come join the excitement! We're over half-funded already!

Kickstarter Imminent

And they now give you a nice "notify me on launch" preview page, so I've left it up. Planning on the first week of November at this point, probably Tuesday the 2nd or Wednesday the 3rd.

Doodled Comic: The Fate of Dylan Brushnie

Sometimes I dash off these little 'conversations' (almost always with Alysha and her crew). I found this single-pager with Alysha and Taylitha talking about Dylan Brushnie after the events of Sword of the Alliance.

Book Launch: Marda Quincesinger, Postulant!

When the Adversary shattered the world, the Savior and her Companions kept the remaining pieces from falling into the void. The school they established trains young boys and girls to continue their work, healing the cracks, facing wrongbeasts, and reversing the aims of the Adversary wherever they can.
And all of this is work for heroes, as far as Marda Quincesinger is concerned. She’s more interested in the cake her mother’s baking her for her fourteenth b...

Fun with the Wiki

Did you know you could tell what I'm thinking/working on by looking at the wiki changes? I do now! Oops.

Regardless of my clumsiness (I do not have madamebadger's mad categorization skills), I am continuing to add things because somehow there's always more stuff to add. How have I not pulled everything out of the texts already?? I feel like every time I read I find some new thing I need to remember. And that's with several of you helping. O_O

Here anyway are some of the fun recent...

Book(s!) Launch! Lisinthir's Heirs, 1 and 2!

We interrupt the art posting for the announcement that I have launched two books: the novels about Lisinthir's return to Escutcheon, Dragons' Fealty and Scions' Flight! These books finish off the major plot points of the Fallowtide, freeing us up to move on to the next big things.

This story was going to be a 30K novella. Instead you get a 204K duology. I hope it keeps you busy a while! Here are the buy links!

Paperback Giveaway

This week I'm participating in a science fiction paperback giveaway, where you enter for a chance to win five signed copies of various books. (The raffle organizer refers to it as 'Christmas in summer', and it's hard not to think of anticipating five separate packages in the mail as anything other than a lot of fun, given how often I get actual mail in the mail.) Anyway, my entry is Who is Willing, but if you win and already have that one and would like a different one, let me know. Go check ...

Progress Report, Mid-June

I am finally on the back-end of my sinus infection, so here's where we are!

* Book 2 of "Lisinthir Comes Home and There are Consequences" is half-done. I have decided I'm going to release both books simultaneously, and the goal is beginning-mid August. 

* Yes, I will be requesting first readers for this second book! I am anticipating another 4 weeks or so to finish it, so probably in late July sometime.

* My new studio is done! Or at least, everything is put in its plac...

Looking Back

Still a bit sick, but soldiering on (if very slowly). One of the things I want to do as I organize my new studio is do a better job of cataloging and making available images people have requested... pretty huge task, but I can't keep putting it off.

I'd like to find a better vendor than zazzle though, which has all right quality but a HORRIBLE back-end experience. If anyone has any recs, I'm all for it.

Anyway, here's the first piece from a series of five I did in 2000ish. View Post

Still moving, but I hope to be done by the end of next week, at which point I'll be a lot less stressed/able to find things/do work. *fingers crossed*

Meanwhile, have a doodle.

Some Disruption

Once again I am moving my studio/workspace, which has scattered my furniture, supplies, and projects all over the house. The goal is to be done with the move by the second week of June, but until then posts will be erratic and likely to be from the archives. I also won't be taking orders of autographed books or merchandise until I'm done setting up.

People interested in more updates can find me on Locals, which is whe...
