Look for a new short story from me late next week. This one is a bit of a departure for me as it's a science fiction horror story that is set in the Ephemeris 2.0 RPG universe. This one will be released by Nomadic Delirium Press, so make sure you set aside a dollar, since this one will be 99 cents.

The cover for The Ephemeris Guide to Guilds, a gaming supplement for the Ephemeris 2.0 RPG
The image is a part of the Orion Nebula with two bright stars near the center of the nebula.
There are many powers at work in the Ephemeris 2.0 universe, but one of the most powerful is the guilds, especially the traders’ guilds. These organizations bind the galaxy together with trade, but making credits isn’t always their only goal. Many of these guilds have alternative goals, some benevolent, and some benign.
Now, step inside and explore some of these guilds, learn about who started them, and what their plans might be for the galaxy. But you won’t just find traders’ guilds here. There are some mercenary guilds, and even a couple of pirates’ guilds.
A great source if you’re looking for a guild for your characters to join…or if you don’t want to join a guild, this can be a great source for game masters to create potential enemies or allies for their adventures.

My bestselling title for September 2025 was my newest novel, Slave to the Stars. Check it out: books2read.com/u/3Gg068
Tilmath was born a slave, but she was no ordinary slave. Unlike most humans, she was an Espari, a human capable of sensing the emotions of other beings...

The cover for Slave to the Stars by J Alan Erwine. It features a teenage girl standing in front of a spaceship in a field. Tall pine-like trees stand in the distance.
