That’s right! Genesis Earth, my first epublished novel, is now available on Amazon for $2.99. Check it out, post a review, tell your friends! I decided to price it at $2.99 for a few reasons: First, that’s the lowest price at which Amazon allows a 70% royalty rate. When you buy the book, I get… Continue reading Genesis Earth is now live!

AHHH! It’s uploaded!
That’s right; just a few minutes ago, I uploaded Genesis Earth to the Amazon Kindle store. It’ll take about 24 hours to show up on the site, at which point the entire universe will implode and we’ll all become robots fighting for survival in an artificial reality. So get ready! That beautiful image on the… Continue reading AHHH! It’s uploaded!
Stoked for CONduit and a sneak peek
CONduit starts tomorrow in Salt Lake City, and I am so stoked! This will be my third year in a row, and it looks like all the usuals are going to be there: Dan Wells, Howard Tayler, Dave Farland, L.E. Modesitt, Tracy and Laura Hickman–in other words, a whole bunch of awesome people. It’s gonna… Continue reading Stoked for CONduit and a sneak peek
First review and an announcement
So shortly after I joined the Kindle Boards, Michelle from Red Adept Reviews contacted me for a blog interview to go along with a review she was doing for “From the Ice Incarnate.” The review and interview were posted over the weekend; you can find them here. The review is generally positive, though I think… Continue reading First review and an announcement
Rocking the rewrite
I am well into the third draft of Worlds Away from Home, and oh man–it is so much fun! That might seem a bit counter-intuitive (revising = fun?), so let me explain my process. In a first draft, I have a ton of ideas, but it’s hard for me to keep track of them all… Continue reading Rocking the rewrite
Back in Mass
Mass = Massachusetts = “back east,” for all you unwashed Utahans! My sister’s wedding is this weekend, so I’m back at my parents’ place helping them get everything set up. It’s going to be a busy day tomorrow, but I’ve got my netbook and will probably get a couple good hours of writing in. I… Continue reading Back in Mass
Goals for May
The last two weeks have pretty much decimated my writing routine. Between family stuff and a 40 hour per week temp job, I’ve pretty much fallen behind on everything. However, the good news is that with the money from the temp job, I can afford to take a month off to work exclusively on writing… Continue reading Goals for May
Disappointment and a shift in direction
So the latest round of judging for the 2011 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award came out today…and Genesis Earth didn’t make the cut. Oh well, at least I made it to the quarter finals. Most of the reviews were encouraging, though the one from Publisher’s Weekly made me wonder if the reviewer had something against science… Continue reading Disappointment and a shift in direction
Killing the sacred cows while doing data entry
Sorry for the lack of blog posts; I’ve been working 40 hours a week at this temp job, which doesn’t leave a lot of time for other things outside of writing. I’m still plugging along at about 1k to 2k words per day, but a lot of other stuff is falling behind. Fortunately, the job… Continue reading Killing the sacred cows while doing data entry
Good things are coming
…I can feel it. I got my tax return today, and it was significantly more than I was expecting. Between that and the money I’m getting from my current temp job, I may have enough to last through this month and the next. The last time I took a month off to focus exclusively on… Continue reading Good things are coming
