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.

It's a lost boy's dream and it never gets old. #books #indieauthor #thriller

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.

Sunny days will come again...dependant on your planet. If there is a single concept shared in this book, that is it.

If there are two...

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.

Hello. I wonder if a #scifi tale with a gritty, working class, found family vibe about the tricky nature of trust, & starring a former soldier & Psionic girl who face space pirates, mutant, and the horrors of their own pasts might be of interest.

If so try Children of the Black books2read.com/cotb/

Just found this and there's nothing like a "new" review.

The doors to the universe are thrown open to mankind, but at terrible cost. Eons later, with war a recent memory, a desperate pursuit turns Minerva City into a savage hunting ground. Here, amidst this chaos, the Silver Sights Saga begins.
