Knaves Over Queens review at Locus
Paula Guran at Locus Magazine reviewed KNAVES OVER QUEENS, our first UK-centered Wild Cards mosaic novel, and had some nice things to say about it. KNAVES OVER QUEENS came out in the UK last year already, and it will be available in the US in August of this year. (That’s due to some release date…
News from Poland
I got word that CHAINS OF COMMAND is nominated for the 2018 Best Book Award in Poland. From what I know, that’s the Polish equivalent of the Goodreads Awards and the largest book award in Poland, so that’s pretty cool. I’m feeling very warmly about Poland. My Polish publisher was the first foreign house to…
One year with the Tactical Off-Road Banana
One year ago, the minivan went to the Great Junkyard in the Sky with less than 40k on the odometer due to circumstances that shall remain vague. I had to source a replacement very quickly because we are most definitely a two-car household by necessity. We had a good experience with the wife’s Jeep Cherokee,…

In 2018, I had two published works that are eligible. First, POINTS OF IMPACT, book 6 in the Frontlines series, came out…
This post brought to you by the Superhero Writers Union.
I love writing for Wild Cards. It’s an amazingly detailed world that has been expanded by thirty-plus writers over thirty years, and it’s a ton of fun to be a part of that. I mean, I get to make up my own super-powered characters and then let them loose in a playground that has been…
A wild blog post appears!
I’ve nuked Facebook again, and this time for good–I deleted my account instead of just deactivating it. I’d love to claim that it was solely because of the privacy and ethics concerns. They certainly played a role, but the truth is that Facebook was sapping too much of my attention and time, and those are…
