I’m a big fan of crowd-funded fiction anthologies. In fact, my second professional fiction sale ever was to a crowd-funded anthology, Alex Shvartsman’s “Unidentified Funny Objects”. (That was the short story “Cake Whores From Mars”, written on a dare from Chuck Wendig, and a crowd favorite at readings.) The UFO sale was a major motivation…

“angles of attack” has an official cover.
Hey, you! Yes, you! Wanna see the cover for Frontlines #3, “Angles of Attack”? OF COURSE YOU DO. I am biased, of course, but I think it’s a pretty bad-ass cover, and probably my favorite Frontlines cover yet. “Angles of Attack” will be out on April 21st in Kindle, paperback, and audio formats.
audiobook review: “terms of enlistment”.
There’s a pretty sweet review of the audio version of Terms of Enlistment over at Audio Book Reviewer. You should go check it out. The audio version of the third Frontlines book is currently in production, from what I hear. I am really happy with the work of Luke Daniels, who read the first two…
“lines of departure”, the goodreads choice awards, and you.
Last year, TERMS OF ENLISTMENT made the SF shortlist in the 2013 Goodreads Choice Awards. This year, LINES OF DEPARTURE has managed the same trick in the 2014 Goodreads Choice Awards, which is nice. If you read the book and liked it enough (if you in fact LIKED IT BETTER THAN THE OTHERS), then by…
angles of attack release date.
It appears that Frontlines #3, ANGLES OF ATTACK, has an official release date: April 28. Here is the Amazon product page, where you can pre-order the book if you are so inclined. There’s no cover art yet, but I’m sure 47North will update the product page as soon as there’s an official cover. In the…
my birthday, and also the audible deal of the day.
Hey, kids! For my 43rd birthday (which is, incidentally, TODAY AND RIGHT NOW), Audible got me a nice surprise: LINES OF DEPARTURE is the Audible Deal of the Day! So if you like taking in your fiction through the sound-holes in your skull, you may want to head over there and pick up a copy….
new york comic con schedule.
Going to New York Comic Con in October? What a coincidence–me too! I’ll be there doing HIGHLY AUTHORIAL stuff for 47North. I’ll sign copies of TERMS OF ENLISTMENT at the 47North booth on Friday, October 10th, from 4-4:30PM, so if you are going to be there, stop by and say hi so I don’t feel…
scalzi does concord.
Last night, my friend John Scalzi was in Concord as part of a book tour for his new novel “Lock In”, so I went to see him and attend the reading. A few weeks back, we were talking about signings and stuff, and I joked that my first book store signing event would probably be…
the space kablooie saga goes international.
Today’s announcement involves the OUTSTANDING literary tastes of the Polish and German people: The Polish language rights for TERMS OF ENLISTMENT and LINES OF DEPARTURE have been sold to the Polish publishing house Fabryka Slow. I don’t have an ETA for the Polish language version, but my best guess is “sometime next year”. The German…
the novels of chang.
Chang Terhune is a good friend of mine. We met for the first time back at Viable Paradise XII in 2008. He is one of the many talented writers in the VPXII alumni group that are also fine human beings and fabulously fun to hang out with. Because he’s practically a local (Castle Frostbite is…
