We had quite a big scare this past week. On Monday, we had to rush little Pippin the Pomeranian to the emergency vet. Being not even 11 weeks old at that point, and a smaller breed, he’s very vulnerable to losing fluids fast. Not to mention in his blood sugar levels. The vet was as …
This last weekend, I launched a surprise book. Legends of the Cataclysm is an anthology containing 13 of my Warpmancer and Katverse short stories, plus two miscellaneous stories. But not just that. I’ve included the first eight chapters of Beyond the Blood Veil to the anthology. That means that you eager beavers who’ve read the …

I’ve got a weekend surprise for you! I’ve compiled all my short stories into a single, action-packed and magically charged anthology called Legends of the Cataclysm.

Yaw! I’m bone tired. Drained as, well, a drained battery. Creative, eh? Forgive me for my lack of poeticism. Not that I’ve ever been much of a poet. Let’s just say I’m kaput.

Mango has been temporarily brave, coming …

The oldest of my readers will all know a little bit about my long love-hate relationship with the Warpmancer Series.

Happy New Year! I hope your final days of 2023 were relaxing and fun, and that your 2024 is off to a great start. As you may have noticed, we have a brand new official reading order for the Katverse. This awesome, responsive web page allows readers to check the advised reading order for the …
I’ve been pretty silent on the blog here for – checks website – 80 days! Yeah, that’s not good. But the reasons are good. I’ve been hard at work for these months. If you follow my newsletter or my social media, you will have heard some snippets of what I’ve been up to. First, of …
On the eve of the Cataclysm in 1991, Germany was only a recently reunited nation. The fragility of its recovery from being split in two at the end of WW2 did not bode well for its chances at staying united when rift-surges tore through Earth, bringing monsters and magic into the world. In the late …
