Award-winning writer. Eight novels, ten short story collections, three nonfiction books. Novels adopted for high school student required reading. Stories selected to multiple Best Of anthologies.
So very proud to introduce ROMANCE FOR ALL SEASONS, a quarterly romance anthology edited by Annie Reed and myself. If you're a fan of romance novels or novels of any genre, give these wonderful romance short stories a try. I am SURE you'll be happy you did!

I’ve always been a slow runner but got a hilarious reminder yesterday. As I was #running, 5 teenagers passed me on their bikes doing wheelies. One smartass with a great sense of humor looked back and said, “Keep walking, sir!”
Walking? The little snot!
Oh well, life is great! Happy Thanksgiving!

You needed something to read, and Auberon is the start of an IMMENSE world of epic space opera, with Warlord of Yaumgan starting in Feb. (That's book 20 in the overall line, counting sidequests and offshoots, with more coming.)

fucking hysterical to hear the 'poor little genAI industry' crying about being bullied with "copyright law" as if it's some novel, untested area of jurisprudence.

If you don't want to be sued by 7 million people don't steal from 7 million people, that's a pretty simple legal concept

I hope that none of you who tuned into yesterday's hot dog eating contest saw there was a competitor named "Heavy D" Hendrickson and assumed it was me.

What does a hero look like to you? Superman? Or that Czech lady hitting Nazis with her handbag? Or both? Or neither? I'm part of the Unusual Heroes Storybundle that might have some answers. Charitable proceeds go to The World Kitchen, also heroes storybundle.com/heroes

halfway through the month. Your chance to get the first three novels in the series a lot cheaper than individually.

And to meet my wife's favorite alien roadrunner.
Every month something new on sale at the store.

This month, the first Shadow of the Dominion Omnibus.

Kudos to @anniereedwriter.bsky.social for the awesome covers + graphics for these collections. Covers are the 1st thing readers see, and these are eye-catching + perfectly capture the stories.
The #Kickstarter success so far is in no small part due to her talents.

Thank you, Michael! You are one in a million!
You definitely should back this.

Full disclosure: one of my hobbies is "throw poop at Dave." If you'd met Dave, you would understand. So do back this, but whatever you do, don't tell him I think he's a great writer. It would trash our relationship.
Fully funded last night! Took only a day + a half! Great to see the enthusiasm for my work and excitement to get early copies!

Onward to see what Stretch Goal rewards for all supporters.

Thank you!
