View ArticleI have my floor location at Fright Reads!
I have no idea if this is good, or not. It’s in the middle, at least. Check me out (Flying Koala Publishing) at the @frightreads Book Festival on October 2nd! https://t.co/rMYX8zZsG6...
View ArticleNot gonna sugar-coat it: if you want to HAVE gifts to give for Christmas, you...
I’m not actually joking, although I am damn well putting my own stuff first. International shipping times are getting worse and worse. If it’s not in a warehouse in the USA now, the odds of a toy or...
View ArticleWorking on Spreadsheets for TINSEL RAIN.
Short version: I gotta up the budget for having my books edited. As in, it is a matter of personal honor. Alas, that will absolutely push the publishing schedule for TINSEL RAIN back to the end of...
View ArticleNaNoWriMo, 11/01/2021: 2,020 / 17,380.
I started with a novella, you see. I don’t know if I can sustain 2K words a day for NaNoWrimo, but then I don’t have to. Even if I am aiming at 60K words, I’m already 29% of the way there. But it’s...

View ArticleI’m feeling better. Buy my books!
You know, to celebrate. But I’m not feeling completely better, so I’m going back to bed. #commissionearned
View ArticleTen days left to buy my books in October!
Not gonna lie: I’ve had better sales months (even when I take Fright Reads sales in account). But if you’re looking for new and exciting Christmas gifts, my books would be perfect for that. They’re...
View ArticleDecember goal: 45 book sales!
If I manage that, I should be able to say that I’ve made an average of $500/per year from Amazon sales of my books since I started up on this. What does that mean, in the larger scheme of things?...

$35 to go to $500/year on Amazon!
The numbers recede! But we still have a ways to go, so tell your friends to buy my books! They’re good, if that helps. #commissionearned
View ArticleBeen working out projects for the first half of 2023 today.
I mostly concentrated on looking into whether I can put together another chapbook: it turns out, I can. Between the two Kindle Vella stories (which I can publish on KDP, after thirty days*) an older...
View ArticleWhile you’re waiting for MoeLane.com to migrate, buy one of my books!
Found here. Said migration shouldn’t take too long; but then, that’s what they said about the First World War. Something could go pear-shaped. Hopefully it won’t, but it might, so go buy two books!...

The February Patreon stuff is up!
Huzzah! Short Story: Verdict of History. History was deliberately unkind in its verdict, and I fret that I didn’t make it unkind enough. I rarely dislike my own protagonists to the extent that I...
View ArticleLarry Correia discusses the travails of up and coming epic fantasy writers.
A taste: Now here’s the ugly facts of life. Let’s say there’s a new, unestablished author, who really wants to write an epic fantasy. Let’s even say he’s fucking brilliant. This guy is potentially the...
View ArticleGAAAAH this book.
I have to remind myself that hating your manuscript at this stage of the process is a perfectly natural thing, that many writers do. I’ve been here before. I will be, again. I just want it done…
View ArticleSo, I had a root canal this morning. Buy my books!
…I’m going to blame that title on the endorphins. To misquote somebody or other, there is nothing quite so thrilling as finishing up a procedure where they go deep into your tooth to get all the...
View Article11 Chapters reviewed, GHOSTS ON AN ALIEN WIND.
That’s about half the book, thank goodness. If I buckle down on it, I can get the revised text to the readers by Friday or Sunday. If you’ve volunteered for that and haven’t heard from me by now, I...

The June Patreon stuff is up!
Lord, wasn’t that fun. Novella: ALKALI JONES AND THE LOST DEVIL-CITY. Part 1. I fought hard, but: it’s a novella, not a short story, and I’ll finish it next month. RPG Material: Hex Nation....
View ArticleGot more done today, thank God.
Did a chapter, got wordcount on the novella, managed to keep myself from starting a new novella: I need to designate times in the day where writing happens. It’s as simple as that. …It’s not actually...
View ArticleWelp, it was a tough month, sales-wise.
Not gonna lie on that one. Sales went through the floor, in all categories. The good news is that I have four venues in the next few months, starting with the MD Renn Faire in a week. After that, it’s...
View ArticleHrm. Expanded Distribution on Amazon for my books: yea, or nay?
It’s an interesting question. From what I can tell, my options are either to do things like put my books up on Barnes and Noble myself, or let Amazon do it for me. Advantages to the former: more money....

My location at Fright Reads!
Fright Reads in a week! I’m not sure, but this is… a pretty good spot, I think. Pretty close to the door, but not right on it (note where I was last year). Should be good traffic. Looking forward to...
View ArticleBad news: many of my paperbacks are going up in price next year.
I don’t actually want that to happen, obviously. But, thanks to inflation, costs are up, and prices have to go up to compensate. FROZEN DREAMS is going to stay the same price in paperback, but prices...
View ArticleHave you made a New Year’s Resolution to review more books?
Well, go ahead and get on with that, then. Or pretend that you were going to, all along. You can fulfill your obligation by either reviewing my books (after buying them, yes), or else reviewing...
