12 days. That's how long until Quest of Fire: Resurgence of Dawn releases! I cannot tell you how excited I am to share this book with you. You might be wondering why I’m breaking my usual silence on Thursday instead of the usual Quest of Fire Friday… well, it’s because it felt really appropriate to... Continue Reading →
No Small Miracles
Recently, I had a scare of the health variety. For my whole life I've been blessed with really good health. Every so often though I'll have something new or strange happen health-wise and because of where I work, I know just enough of medical conditions to do armchair diagnostics and freak myself out. These self-diagnoses... Continue Reading →
TOMORROW’S EDGE TUESDAY: RELEASE DAY
Today is a pretty special day! Veiled Sun is re-releasing today and it feels fantastic getting to hold it in my hands again. When the publisher for Tomorrow’s Edge closed earlier this year, I was especially sad because Veiled Sun had only released in January 2020. With how intense work was during the pandemic’s peak,...

TOMORROW’S EDGE TUESDAY: VEILED SUN
I seem to be doing a great job of releasing my posts right on the edge of being past their special day. In this instance I can somewhat blame a cold that has just descended on me for being behind. I almost didn't post, but I have to because I got the fantastic news that... Continue Reading →
QUEST OF FIRE FRIDAY: SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES
It’s been a pretty busy pair of weeks for me. I’ve been working pretty feverishly on final reviews of the interiors for both books I have releasing in September. I plan to talk about one on Tuesday (work requirements pushed back my planned post on that news), but tonight I want to talk about an... Continue Reading →
QUEST OF FIRE FRIDAY: REALM MAKERS
So, it’s been a couple weeks since my last post and it’s with good reason. Two weeks ago, I had my family vacation and attended the Realm Makers writers conference. Since then I’ve had a flurry of things to get done in advance of the four book releases I have later this year (YEAH, FOUR!).... Continue Reading →
QUEST OF FIRE FRIDAY: WHAT’S IN A NAME?
Recently while reading a review of Shadows at Nightfall I saw that that particular reader had caught on to one of the major mysteries of the series and a source of tension for Jason during much of the book: who is Cinaed the Storyteller? When Jason first meets Cinaed he's just an old man telling... Continue Reading →
The Start of Something Good
“…give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” -1 Thessalonians 5:18, ESV There are some days that really stick with us. Five years ago, on April 14th, I had one such day. It was a Monday and I was tired. The drive home from work had... Continue Reading →
Some Lessons Learned From My Little One (Part 6)
If you've been following my posts lately, you've probably noticed there are quite a few, like this one, discussing a lesson I've learned from my son. He's a toddler, so conventional wisdom would say he should be the one doing the learning, but every interaction we have takes on a greater meaning to me.... Continue Reading →
Some Lessons Learned From My Little One (Part 5)
There have been a number of small moments with my little guy that have had a profound impact on me. My intention was to make a post summarizing each simultaneously. I thought I would break from my tendency to be wordy and try to be concise. Obviously I'm still a recovering word-aholic, because that hasn't happened... Continue Reading →
