It has been too long since I delved into the deliciously, intense and political melee that is Roman politics. Far too long.

Carthago delenda est.

Hey #JordonCon... Does anyone have a 'He/she/they who rises with the dawn' ribbon? Because some of us are insane and can't sleep past 0530.

But yeah. Short hair ftw. It's the only guaranteed way of beating the heat.

N. L. Mann 💙📚 Epic Military Fantasy @epicmilitaryfantasy.com · Apr 20

Because this happens under a mask/helm? (This is also why I cut mine when I initially enlisted, though...)

Not exactly cute main character energy. 😂

BIG NEWS!!

I've been granted a table in the Author's Alley at #JordonCon!!!

I can finally have any semblance of a launch for my first book. A year ago I was supposed to go to Jordan Kahn for my debut novel and ended up deploying instead. 🙃

Come say hi if you're there!! I have goodies!

Because you're going to need to read it about a million times during the editing process, and it better bring you joy. 😂

And also:

"Think: epic stakes, slow-burn character arcs, found family vibes, and big military-fantasy energy."

I mean.... IT'S NOT EVEN WRONG! 😂💀

So I was playing around with ChatGTP and asked it how I should pitch my own novel to a fantasy convention audience...

I can't stop laughing. 😂

This is hilariously appropriate and descriptive mess of my life. All of my writings and Army life mixed and taking over my dining room.

But I *am* taking my novel to #JordonCon this year, darn it!
