New covers are great. Getting a proof copy is stellar, but for me, this is where the magic begins. Having hard work rendered into the real in the rawest sense possible reminds me of the first stories I ever imagined.

Time flies. Today is the 3rd anniversary of my first published work. In celebration, I have officially added 'Children of the Black' to Kindle Unlimited and given it a permanent price drop to just .99 cents.
It is time to take a journey into the Black...maybe even with a friend.

June has turned out to be a big month. Two big sales, a book signing with other local authors (my first) and a decent amount of new readers have begun their journey into the Black.

The Black is timeless, cold and unforgiving. Those within its eternal embrace know this well. Still, adventure, discovery and danger await those brave enough to cast off the shackles of their world's gravity & seek the unknown among its silver-lined stars.

Hi, if you check out the review from whataimeereads with the link below you’ll see that my dark fantasy book ‘A Dragon of the Veil’ has yet another brilliant review. Thank you. However, this review and a few others have mentioned the start can be complex so…1/4

A huge thanks for all your kind words and thoughts. I can't wait to see what you think of Book 3 when the time comes.
Last week I read The Hound of Greyvor (sequel to Children of the Black; a semi finalist in #SPSFC3) by @wjlongiii.bsky.social. I've updated my GR review. I've had Greyvor headworm.
