John Pirhalla will be starting recording on Flameborn shortly, and I CAN'T WAIT to get started on hearing & reviewing the chapters! This is the point at which it becomes truly real for me since most of my personal "reading" is done via audio on my commute.

So far, I've received four 4&5-star ratings on Amazon, but I also received a lone 1-star rating. Perhaps it was someone who didn't care for the sex scenes - I hope that's the case - but it's pulled down my average rating. I do have warnings at the beginning, though. shorturl.at/EqJRA

Book 2, titled The Infernal Age: Flameborn, is coming along nicely, but it's not going to be ready for October 28th. I've changed the release date to November 25th. Sorry, everyone! I'm very excited to release it as soon as I can - I just needed a little more time.

I hit 50 reviews on Amazon (and still with 4.5 rating so far)! Which goes to show primarily that I have a lot of generous friends, but also at least a handful or two of strangers who liked my book enough to rate it.

Well, it's a different list than the best seller list, but being number one in any category on Amazon is fun!

Another accolade! Not as prestigious as being told to "F**k off" by John Scalzi himself (and giving me permission to use that as a blurb!), but still good.

I'm nearly done going through the editing changes for Book 2. It's... more. More action, more party members, more demons, more survivors, more distrust, more banter and pop culture, more magic, and more... adult things. And this is not the cover, of course. Sep or Oct for that

The Infernal Age has been named a 2025 Pacific Book Award Finalist for Apocalyptic & Post-Apocalyptic Fiction!
This extends my run in awards beginning with the letter P, and adds a much-needed west coast flair to my award shelf.

The Audiobook version released last night! I am very excited, even though somehow the title got misrepresented somehow. shorturl.at/jbg44

Book Life (Publisher's Weekly's Indy serving arm) has made my book an Editor's Pick! I don't know if that's actually good or not, but it seems good, and I'll just appreciate it. Here's the link to my page there, which has the review at the bottom. booklife.com/project/the-...

In my book, one of the main characters arms himself with a Vengeance Lord Apocalypse Axe, which I only barely made up - there really are similarly named axes out there. Should I get one made for real and take it with me to book signings?
