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…
Last day for your Hugo nominations
Today is the last day for Hugo nominations for Worldcon 75 in Helsinki. If you’re a member of Worldcon 74 (MidAmericon II) or Worldcon 75, and you haven’t yet finalized your ballot, now’s the time. And I won’t engage in self-pimpage for the Frontlines stuff, but if you’re still nominating, I’d urge you to consider…

lines of departure, polish edition.
The Polish edition of LINES OF DEPARTURE is out this month from Fabryka Slow, and they continue their excellent cover illustration streak: For the American covers, I only ever had one specification–no character faces. (That’s because I wanted the readers to picture the characters any way they wanted in their heads. Note that young master…

Oh, hey–it’s February. That means the release of FIELDS OF FIRE is just a few weeks away. Crazy Jeff over at the Electronic Books Emporium has discounted all four books of the Frontlines series so far to a dollar each on the Kindle. If you still need to complete your set, or you want to get…
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…

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…
