Four stories, with original illustrations by Ben Fleuter. This book will stay at the $2.99 price point that I’ve established for the other chapbooks. No art yet, because that’s still in progress (I hope to have this ready in September, too, but no promises). DECISIONS will be mostly fantasy, although there is one straight-up horror story in it. Keep watching the skies! And buying my books!

My new novel MORGAN BAROD will have a September release!
I’m self-publishing, so I am comfortable saying that. September 1st, with any luck: the editing is on-schedule and the book cover art is done (and below). I’m going to be working up a rough estimate of page count this week so that I can get that information to the book cover designer, and while MORGAN BAROD is not yet available for pre-order I encourage everybody to buy my books.
So there you have it! The new novel is indeed coming. Tentative price will be $4.99 in Kindle, $12.99 in paperback. I say tentative because I have to let KDP finish crunching those numbers first.
Quiet day today.
It’s the first of the month, and I’m always drained then. Did do that writeup earlier and worked on chapter edits, so it wasn’t unproductive. But I just didn’t have much to say.

PS: I do gotta be relentless about advertising my stuff now, though, so… buy my books! Or tell other people to buy my books. That works, too.

It’s amazing what you can do when you Don’t Care About Credit. But you already know that, of course. Don’t know why I’m even pointing it out, really.

Book of the Week: Fade.
I picked up Fade: A Wizard Private Investigator Novel by Daniel Humphreys recently. Just what it says on the tin, but it’s written well and I’m enjoying it so far. Check it out!
The July Patreon rewards are up!
Today’s the trifecta: microfiction, gaming material, and a new short story! Sign up today! Only a dollar a month!
- THE RELIEF OF WINDERMERE CASTLE. Kind of gothpunk! Is that a term? It is now!

- THE WAY TO THE DEVIL’S HEART. Microfiction! The Devil! Unexpected social awkwardness!
Not the best month, to be honest.
Nothing really horrible, but lots of external stress and the short story launch frankly flopped. Well, relatively[*]. Between the Kickstarter and what sales there were, I was able to pay for it and some more stuff later in the year, but this has not been a great summer for selling books.
Welp. August in a few days. A new month ahead: Excelsior!

“Finish that story,” I said. “How hard can it be?” I said. “You know how it’s supposed goes,” I said.
