I preordered, so should you.
A society of warrior-mages whose creed forbids feelings, family, homeland, and romance in service to the greater good. Is it any wonder they’re betraying each other?

Get in on the new fantasy epic The Tipping World!

This is your last chance to grab my lastest book at it's special preorder price of $2.99.
And what better incentive than this glowing review.

I think I might have been mistakenly added to a triathlete starter pack.
While I'm glad to see all the new people, my "fluffy self" is no athlete, the only thing I know about exercise is run-on sentences.

I have a confession, my typing sucks.
After six novels, I can barely manage 18 words a minute, but that's changing.
At 50 years of age, I'm taking a typing class.
Wish me luck.

I'm pushing aside the plotting of my next novel to focus on a short story within that same universe.
I just think working on a smaller project atm might be better/easier for me.
New words are good words right?

Today is my Monday at my RL job, so it's time to write around the edges of my day on google docs.
This "week" I plan on plotting our a sci-fi short story for a call that's come my way.

New introductory post.

While I've had an account for months, recent world events (we all know what I'm talking about correct?), has meant I'm looking to connect with like-minded humans here.

I'm a SF/F author from Nova Scotia, Canada and write about ordinary people in extrardinary situations.

My author weekend
- Getting ready for SPSFC..
- Prepping my Sept 3rd NL.
- Fixing the book start point for my boxed set.
- Updating the backmatter in my books.
- Getting my ARC reader form for "Reflections of Fractured Dreams" ready.
There's more to writing than banging out words.

My white privilege got another wake-up call last night.
While shopping for Halloween candy, I saw that all the migrant workers were in the staffed checkouts vs. the self-checkouts.
I realized that these workers only have cash and were forced into a lengthy wait to get their groceries.

I suddenly find myself starting the 3rd Act of my latest short story, and I don't hate it.
IDK, might delete it later.

The Hal-con 2023 schedule is live and I have a jammed packed weekend with signings, panels and solo presentations.
This is a huge deal for this blue-collar sci-fi author, I admit the nerves are starting.

Hi.

I run a speculative fiction writers' group on Discord. We've just crossed 200 members!

Feel free to hit me up if you write spec fic (sci-fi, fantasy, horror) and would like a community of friendly fellow spec fic writers!

Ok, that's it, love you, bye. 👋🏾

50 years ago Captain Nina Brooke picked a crew to accompany her on the mission of a lifetime. Today, they wake up to start it.

Featuring found family, friends/colleagues to lovers and a whole heap of queer rep, this cosy sci-fi is perfect to snuggle up with this autumn season!
