I’m going to start with the thing that’s not as much fun as everything else. That’d be the little bit of advice. I have a new book out, which is called How Writers Fail: Analysis and Solutions. The topic is dark, but the book is uplifting, especially if you have some of the issues I’m dealing with here. If you know or if you are […]
Free Fiction Monday: Track 61
Kessa possesses only small magic. But her skills allow her to help those who wield bigger magic. Her latest job takes her deep into the bowels of New York City’s subway system, hunting for bits of history long since forgotten.

Free Fiction Monday: Killing the Angel of Death
When Roderigo and Izzy form a group to stop the Angel of Death from taking more innocent lives, they realize they need help. One by one, Roderigo recruits people who see the Angel, who know its evil magic, who suffer from the damage the Angel wreaks.

Release Day! The First Full-Length Fey Novel in Decades!
I’m so excited that you’ll all get to read The Kirilli Matter: The First Book of The Qavnarian Protectorate. What is the Protectorate? Well, it’s in the Fey world, on Dorovich, and I’m not going to tell you much more than that…except to say that yes, this book has Fey in it, and yes, you’ll understand more when you read. If you’ve never read any […]
Recommended Reading List: January 2023
I taught a workshop, and spent a lot of January reading stories in manuscript. (I still have a lot to go because of a stupidly busy February.) I ended up reading a novel that was awful. The writing was good; the situation implausible; the characters all dumber than rocks. But I couldn’t figure out how this traditionally published author got to his ending. So I […]
Free Fiction Monday: Dragon Slayer
Fifteen dragons dead in less than a century. Rumaad, a different kind of dragon, collects information about the killings the way some dragons collect jewels. Perfectly suited to see the differences in the latest crime scene, he investigates the murder of a dragon he knows all too well. What he sees convinces him something changed in his world—and not for the best. “Dragon Slayer,” by […]
First of The Year News
It has been a very busy start to the year. I just finished teaching an in-person workshop, which we held at Resorts World. It’s a lovely venue (unlike the Golden Nugget), and we had a great time. I’m hoping the students enjoyed it as much as I did. I’m teaching two more workshops there this year—one in May and one in July—which you can find […]
Happy New Year!
I’m actually a little excited (and terrified that I’m excited) for 2023. All of us involved with WMG Publishing are starting the year at a full run. We’ve made a lot of changes and progress in December, and we have great plans for this new year. First, let me tell you Diving fans that I’m nearly done with a surprise Diving novel. I decided to […]
