Thanks Kris!
I had a great time with Joshua and @zacharyforbes.bsky.social’s second installment of the Continuum series!

I love the episodic way this story is told and the chapter hooks were oh so good!

BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT

My brother and I have been sitting for a little while on a novella-length story. It’s set before the events of our post-apocalpse series, and is meant to set the stage for the political turmoil that brings our world to its ‘end’ in 1987

It’s 90% spy thriller

Welcome! I’m knee deep in book 3 of my post-apocalypse series. I'd love for you all to check out book 1

Undead, guns, and music references

Something happens between Nico & Jonas in the least romantic place in the world: a psych ward.

But Nico is straight, right?

Outside, he's back to uni, weed, and metal. Nothing special. Until he has a gig, and there's a familiar face in the crowd...

It seems Willingham has released Fables (Wolf Among Us) into the public domain after some major disagreements with DC comics

He sites this action as his best route to standing up to the major publisher since he “Can’t afford to sue”

Wow Comic industry is in shambles

Sales have stalled a bit for the month but reads on Kindle Unlimited have soared!

I suppose that means a good few people are reading Three Rivers Plague all the way through, or a helluva lot of people are getting pulled in to read the first few chapters

Either way I’m doing something right!
