Now that I’m back from Cape Cod, I’ve got two major projects that I’m focused on: finish the first draft of\u00a0Captives in Obscurity (Sons of the Starfarers: Book V),<\/strong> and get\u00a0Heart of the Nebula<\/strong> ready for publication in November. Those are some big releases, so you can expect to hear a lot in the coming months about them\u2014especially\u00a0Heart of the Nebula,<\/strong> which I’ve been working on for the past four years. Lots of exciting stuff!<\/p>\n

In the meantime, I had two smaller releases in the past couple of weeks, and I think you guys are really going to enjoy them!<\/p>\n

The first is the re-release of\u00a0“A Hill on Which to Die,”<\/strong> an epic fantasy novelette about a band of free orcs trekking\u00a0into the wilderness to start a new clan. This is my first real foray into fantasy, but I really enjoyed it and am thinking seriously about writing more books in this universe. If that sounds like something you’d like to see, then give this story a try and let me know what you think by posting a review or shooting me an email.<\/p>\n

The second is a short story in the\u00a0Star Wanderers<\/strong>\u00a0universe. Longtime readers may recognize it as a story I wrote last year<\/a> as part of the Short Blitz challenge<\/a>.\u00a0“Starchild”<\/strong> is a quick read that takes place in a far-off corner of the universe, and shows what life is like on a tiny isolated space colony in the Far Outworlds.<\/p>\n

This is only the tip of the iceberg as far as stories go. My goal is to have a new release at least every two months, with short stories in between the major novel releases. I’ve been averaging about one short story every month as far as writing goes, and it looks like quite a few of them are going to come off of the submission pipeline (either by getting picked up\u00a0or by exhausting the pro\/semi-pro markets) in the next year or so. This is all in addition to my novel writing, which hasn’t slowed down in any way from writing short stories.<\/p>\n

So you can definitely expect to see more stories from me in the coming months! And as always, if you want to be the first to hear about a new release (as well as special offers and exclusives), then be sure to sign up for my email list<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Thanks for reading!<\/p>\n
