First off, let me get some business out of the way. I did another post for the Genesis Earth blog tour, this time on my friend Cavan’s blog. The subject: how and why I decided to become an indie published writer. Also, if you live in Europe, it may interest you to know that Genesis… Continue reading Teaser: Starmap from Bringing Stella Home

Deciding on the next project
First, you know how I said I’d raise the price of Genesis Earth as an experiment? Well, after thinking it through a little more, I figured that it’s more important at this point to build a following, and to do that I should probably have at least one novel at the $2.99 price point. Since Genesis… Continue reading Deciding on the next project
Craving another retreat
Last night, I got together with an old friend from last year and went camping down in Sanpete county, in the Manti-Lasal National Forest. Even though I didn’t get a whole lot of writing done, it was a much needed change of scenery. Man, southern Utah is so different from the Salt Lake and Utah… Continue reading Craving another retreat
Civilized internet trolling and things to look out for
The Genesis Earth blog tour rolls on; just recently, I did an interview with Cindy Borgne of Dreamer’s Perch. She’s been showcasing a number of other indie writers on her site, and the interviews are quite interesting, so check it out! Also, Moses Siregar is up to an interesting new project called Indie Author Rockstar. … Continue reading Civilized internet trolling and things to look out for
…WHUT
So this morning when I was getting ready for church, I realized that I couldn’t find my Kindle. Anywhere. Remembering that I’d left it at a Quark event in my apartment’s lobby, I started frantically calling people and knocking doors. Unfortunately, no one had seen it. A few hours later, after combing every place I… Continue reading …WHUT

Also included in this issue is an excellent essay by Brandon Sanderson, in which he introduces his second law of magic systems. It’s an excellent… Continue reading Another publication in Leading Edge!
I need a productivity boost
Yeah…today wasn’t that great. I revised through about 2k words in Desert Stars, but none of it was new material, and I only worked on it for maybe 3 cumulative hours. I’m working full time now, but even so, I can do better than this. My self-imposed deadline for Desert Stars is July 9th. That… Continue reading I need a productivity boost
The blog tour rolls on
I’m writing this post from Leading Edge (the internet is down at my apartment), so I don’t have much time, but I did want to take care of a few items of housekeeping. First, my next guest post in the Genesis Earth blog tour is up, this one at Charles Millhouse’s blog. Charles is a… Continue reading The blog tour rolls on
First Radio interview and other such stuff
Dude, check it out–my first radio interview just went live on the Dungeon Crawler’s Radio website! I met these guys at CONduit last month, where they had a booth and were recording all sorts of authors and artist. They were way cool when I talked with them, and when they found out I was a… Continue reading First Radio interview and other such stuff
Ebook update
As many of you know, I epublished my first novel two weeks ago, and three short stories a few months before that. How has it been going? First, let me point out that I have another guest post out as part of the Genesis Earth blog tour, this one on my friend Gamila’s blog. Gamila… Continue reading Ebook update
