A few years ago, I went to Gen-Con for the first time. It was an incredible experience on many levels, but what really stuck with me was this feeling of “rightness.” There was a real feeling wandering around Indianapolis that the Geek truly did inherit the Earth. We OWNED that town, at least around the

October is now my official favorite month. Ok, not like that’s changed much. I’ve always been an autumn kind of guy. I love the sounds, smells, and temperatures of September-November, (back-to-school to Christmas, actually). I even got married in October once. That didn’t stick, but my love of the season did. But now, I have

It’s that time again — shameless self-promotion time. I will be taking part of the Wayward Coffeehouse Evening of Authors this coming Saturday. Scheduled to run for 2 hours, there is an impressive list of authors taking the mike, including myself, Jennifer Brozek, Cat Rambo, Alma Alexander, Jeremy Zimmerman, R. Schuyler Devin, Leah Cutter, and

Times, they are a changin’ — especially in Cobalt City, home of the heroes. With a tradition of capes and cowls that dates back to before the town’s founding, any time is a good time for adventure!

All submissions for Cobalt City Timeslip anthology are now in hand. Editor’s notes for revisions are already on their way out. I will have a full Table of Contents, complete with the order of appearance, in the next 24 hours, but for now it’s a nice, tight little line-up. A good mix of proven talents,

Technically, Cobalt City Timeslip closed for submissions this weekend. I say technically because I have a pair of stories straggling through the gate in the next day or two. Yeah, I could be a hard-ass and say “A missed deadline is a missed deadline,” but who does that benefit? Answer: no one. Anyway, one is

Year of the anthology for me? I think so! It’s now official. My little honkey-tonk zombie love story will be published in the Rigor Amortis anthology coming out later this year. My part went from amused Twitter conversation to story over the course of a weekend. In that time the little zombie-erotica-anthology-that-could managed to land

It has been a good week for anthologies. Submissions for Cobalt City Timeslip continue to come in, including the excellent piece I read last night, set between Chanson Noir and Cobalt City Blues. I’ve touched base with most of the other authors, and look forward to having the last few stories in this weekend. There

Here is an advance look at the interior art for the upcoming Cobalt City Timeslip anthology. Here you see Midnight Thunder in action from my story, “The War at Home.” Set in 1975, it involves the newly-minted avatar of Thor fighting to protect his neighborhood from Loki and the poisonous influences of the Bifrost Roller
