Writers Block Nightmare

I feel so bad for being away.  My writer's block is killing me.  Everything i launch scrivener my fingers freeze up, and i just stare at the blank page.  

If anyone has any advice on writer's block.  Please let me know.  GAH!   I want to get back into things and finish Gun Meister 2.

I don't want to...

March Update

Not much to say, guys. GMO2 is coming along and it's getting good reviews on Royalroad.  I'm happy with my decision because the feedback has been amazing.  There have been several changes to the Friday/Violet drama llama.  At this point we are on schedule to finish the first draft by late July. Then it'll take a month, probably tw...

New Book Cover Commission.

Gun Meister is coming along and my Cover Artist just started the newest commission.  Will probably drop some teaser images as things get further along.

I'm also tempted to release the teaser for the next Star Nova Cover, but i haven't started work on the novel yet.  I don't want to get ahead of myself.

Updates will be comin...

March Update

I had a setback about a week ago.  I guess you could call it that.  Something happened in the book and it really changed the tone of the novel.  I made a backup of the novel and decided to take things in a new direction.  Gosh if things didn't look more interesting, so i spent a few days fleshing out the changes and rearrangi...

Read Gun Meister 2 Early

I realized that the first book wouldn't have come out nearly so well without RoyalRoadL.  It was thanks to their comments and feedback that i discovered the right tone for the book.  In that spirit i am going to be uploading chapters to the site about once a week or so.  

I know some of you want to wait for the full release,...

Monthly Update - Feburary,

The ebook for Star Nova is due to release on the 25th, and the audible version should be up soon.  I wish ACX would give me a time frame for that.  Still, i'm excited to see how people like the space pew pew.

Audible Book

The guys over at Soundbooth Theater let me know that Jeff is uploading the files to ACX.  That means we're getting ready to do a final proof and review.  Time to drop everything and get to work on that cover.  


 YAY!! 


On a side note, wow so much snow.  I had to go outside and knock...

I rather like it, but what do you guys think?  

Going to be working on Chapter 4 for book 1 today, then toy with the ending for book 0.


Have a good one guys.

Monthly Update

Chapter 4 for Star Nova is a little delayed because I'm doing some developmental edits for Book 0, but i really like the new editor.

Cover art the Beta Book is almost done.  Matt has done a great job, and I look forward to showing it off soon.  He just has to do some tweeking to the front page and roll the image onto a back cover.

Patreon Uploads, RRL, and Star Nova

I have the prequel, book zero of Star Nova, posted to RRL and Wattpad.  More than likely i won't be updating those sites after the novel comes back from the editors.   The real question is whether i'll post the next novel to the site.   


I am far enough along with my next novel that i am ready to begin sharing....

June Work Update

The second draft for Star Nova Online - Book 0 is about half finished.  Mostly i'm just rewording the weaker sentences to give them better flow and plot punch. I paused briefly when the audible book released to do a bunch of promo's.  

Also, i'm looking to get another art commission.  I don't want to spoil anything, but i wanted mo...

Soon.... very soon!

 The Audiobook for GMO is coming out as soon as Amazon does the review.I think I might commission some more art for the occasion.  Jeff and I worked on a little commercial spoof.  Once he gets it to me, i'll share that as well.  BTW, I listened to the entire book again because... I can.  Muahahaha.

End of April Update

Things have been progressing well in the novel, but i must admit to buying the latest Battletech game.  I got lost in running a merc company for a week.  Man the nostalgia was close to lethal, i tell you.  I used to spend hours playing the table top when i was younger.

Gun Meister Audiobook

The Audio Book is being done! 

The people over at Soundboothe Theatre sent me this picture along with the first part of the work.  Annie is doing such a great job, and it really brings the novel alive.  

I am super excited.  In the future i may post a sample once we get closer being finished.

Work Update - 2/15/18

I'm not sure if these blurbs are useful, but i like to keep you guys informed.  Things are still going on, and I'm definitely putting in the hours. 

I completed half of chapter 5 for Lilith's Labyrinth.  The sex scene is blocked out, and the rest is just shopping for items.  Its been too long since i worked on this, but I've b...

Gun Meister Mock-up

Gun Meister Mock-up

I spent the last two days knocking this together in Photoshop.  It was pretty obvious the second cover image was going to win, so i went ahead and dropped it in the background.  The only thing i have to add now is the barcode and change the rating to Teen for the clean version.

Editor hired!

God, i did it.  I hired a group of editors and it's as expensive as advertised, but i hope this will polish Gun Meister to a shine.  I worked with them last night on a sample, and it came out reading much better.  If things pan out, I may use them on Nigmus Online and Star Nova.  

On a side note, the second cover commission is...

Cover Commission - Gun Meister

I have decided to commission two different artists to work on my next cover.  I'm eager to see how they both turn out.

The book is coming along nicely.  Tonight i'll probably work on Star Nova while i wait for my editor to get back online.  I think they are having internet troubles.

Xmas Stream Writing Prompt - Werewolf Vs Giantess

The moon was full, and his feral blood sang within his lupine veins. He paused under the bow of an Eldar tree and looked up. The sky was virtually cloudless, and the stars were a carpet of shimmering lights. Tibarn was tall for his pack. Standing just over seven feet with silver fur and golden colored eyes. A simple woven cloth covered his waist an...
