Well, that was special. I just saw someone on Facebook, who probably thinks of themselves as a perfectly decent and good Christian, dismiss all of Judaism, Islam, and Hinduism, among others, as ‘just tribal laws.’ Honey, it’s ALL just ‘tribal laws.’ You’re just prioritizing your tribe over everyone else’s, and the name for that ain’t […]

For those who asked, and those who were still at the wondering-not-asking stage, my advice on the reading order for the (currently-in-print) books of the Devil’s West: Â Yes, you can read GABRIEL’S ROAD without having read the trilogy. I personally would suggest reading it after, for the nuances and questions-answered, but it’s not essential.Â

Where I am right now is at my desk, trying to convince myself that yes really I DO have to tackle the List of Pending Things That Are Not New-Book-Related. More coffee may be required. But TONIGHT! I will be at the University Bookstore in Seattle, reading and signing and generally talking about SILVER ON

Today’s WiP darling: “She had grown up in proximity to the devil; power had been as present in the air she breathed as the sulphured smoke from the blacksmith’s forge.” I may kill it later. But for now, we’re in love. :-) 2000 new words and I’m finally starting to feel, nearly 25,000 words in,

CatofSize isn’t sure if he’s having a bad morning or is just in a Grumpy Old Man stage. Sometimes it’s hard to tell the difference… Â And I probably should stop referring to having to shoot the cat. New people (and some older ones) keep reading it all wrong. ;-) But hey, being up at 6am

Novels/novellas: SILVER ON THE ROAD is copyeditor-bound. I hope to have ARCs soon, to maybe scatter among the deserving and talkative… (if you’re a blogger or otherwise loudmouthed in the industry and want one, email me!) WORK OF HUNTERS (Sylvan Investigations #3) is with the proofreader and from there into backer-edition production, huzzah! CLAWED (Gin

So on Friday, I finally saw the almost-finished cover for SILVER ON THE ROAD. And I had some nitpicks, because, well, ARTISTS, she said in mock disgust. But overall? I kind of fucking love it. But it’s not Officially Finished Yet. Â So I can’t show it to anyone. *flails and dies a little*
1.  Reminder if you missed the earlier announcements: the #‎willwrite2feedothers story for 2015 went live! (but will only remain live for a limited time, so read now!) 2. A sporting thing happened here in town.  There was much swearing and sweating and triumphant heart attack honking and cheering.  If I’d had an actual emotional attachment to this

Got a new ereader? Got an old ereader? Time to load that sucker up… And my epic fantasy novella (with sea serpents! And wine!) “From Whence You Came” is 50% off! “A thoughtful examination of the consequences of magic; stands alone and away from its progenitor series well. Getting to see a legendary hero as

A week ago, I arrived in Seattle for the long stay. Â Woke up this morning to a cat’s nose in my face. Life is back to what passes for normal…. (except they let me sleep until 6:30! A West Coast Miracle!). Â The apartment’s still a work in progress, but we’re getting there. Â It feels like
