So there’s this new Wild Cards novel called KNAVES OVER QUEENS, and it has a cover and a release date for the UK edition: It’ll be out on June 28 from Harper Collins Voyager UK, and it’s the first time a Wild Cards novel sees publication in the UK before the US. There’ll be a…

Evernight
There’s a new Wild Cards story up at tor.com, “Evernight” by Victor Milán. This is a bitter-sweet thing because Victor Milán passed away yesterday. I understand that Victor was practically the father of Wild Cards (he’s the one who gave George R.R. Martin the RPG Superworld for his birthday, which inspired George to start Wild…
Low Chicago
So I have something pretty wicked to show you today. Remember how I mentioned that my first Wild Cards novella in the U.S. will be out in June as part of a novel called LOW CHICAGO? Well, the final cover of LOW CHICAGO is in, and it’s freaking glorious. Not just because it’s cool by…
It was the night before the night before Christmas
Those are my author copies of POINTS OF IMPACT. They just arrived on the Big Brown Truck of Happiness yesterday. This is the culmination of my productive output in 2017, which has been a super difficult year for getting creative work done. POINTS OF IMPACT, the sixth book in the Frontlines series, will be out…
Emerging from the word mines
I turned in the final edits of POINTS OF IMPACT today, so now it’s full steam ahead toward publication. (I don’t have a date for you yet, but you’ll know as soon as I do.) That makes six novels in the last five years, which isn’t bad for a slacker like me. That reckoning is…
Novels and conventions and such
I finished Frontlines #6, POINTS OF IMPACT, and sent it to my publisher. Now we do some editorial ping-pong, and then I’ll be able to share the publication date with you so you can preorder the book in VERY LARGE QUANTITIES. I had to cancel plans for attending ConFusion in Detroit in January because I…
wild cards I-V, now as ebooks.
The Wild Cards world is an alternate history universe created and edited by George R. R. Martin. It’s a gritty and grungy take on the superhero genre. I don’t usually play in other peoples’ creative playgrounds, but I absolutely could not refuse to be part of this one, because it’s SO MUCH FUN. If you are…
door, ass, way out, etc.
Everybody is slagging on 2016 in social media, myself included. But the truth is that while 2016 was a dumpster fire of a year when it came to politics and celebrity deaths, it wasn’t a bad year at all for me personally or professionally. On the work front, I wrote a novel (FIELDS OF FIRE,…

Speaking of WILD CARDS–if you’re at all interested in this shared-universe series, you should check out the new Wild Cards World, which has information on all the characters, writers, and books of the Wild Cards universe. I feel incredibly privileged to be a part of this project. There are a lot of awesome writers in…
low chicago.
George R.R.Martin announced on his Not A Blog that LOW CHICAGO, the 25th Wild Cards volume, has been sent off to the publisher, Tor. As I may have mentioned, oh, a hundred times or so, I have a novella in that volume. It’s called “Stripes”, and it features my character Khan, who is a very…
