Hey everyone, just reaching out to let everyone know I haven't dropped off.  Give you a few updates. First, Seventh Talon was pulled while I work on getting some of the edits done, and working out the stories for the next books. Not abandoning it, just need to fix some things. Second, I'm working on Lantern Online as we speak. Trying to get my edits done and figure out what I want to do with future books in that line. Right now Lantern Online is being developed as a stand alone novel, but I have an idea of running multiple story lines in here based on different types of characters. Then at some point doing a team up trilogy, and at that point you might see Bran from Office Wars making an appearance. Office Wars - I'm working the omnibus for this, it'll be a little different than the original story, as I'll change most of the logues into memory fragments and rearrange a few things. All of this in preparation for getting an audio in place for it. Thanks for ...

Office Wars 3 - Lab C Goats Optional Ok, well Office Wars 3 is close now. I have a little editing left, and then running it out to some beta readers and if nothing crazy comes back then I will hit publish. I'll make another post when I get my cover made. Playing with the title some, officially its Lab Coats Optional but the cover might have the C crossed out an a G penciled in. This is kind of a sad day for me, because I am wrapping up this series (with the potential to revive it later for another season). I like the people so I've hinted at seeing them again in another game world possibly. Seventh Talon This is being worked on, but it won't be a fast turn around. I have no eta, but it is being worked on. Lantern Online Thought I left this one out to dry didn't you? I am editing this one too, the book I wrote a long time ago, before Office Wars even, but its just been sitting there, because I wasn't sure what I was going to do with it. So... I made a dec...

How is everyone doing? My monthly updates are going to be short this month.  I released Seventh Talon: Dragonrider's Fury last month, so if you haven't read it, please go check it out. Office Wars 3 Update Here is my big update:  I am currently working on it.  However, I think this may end up being the last book this season.  It'll be quite a bit longer than the other books.  I will probably release two books, OW3 and a combined copy of all three books, which I will clean up the first two and eliminate some of the rougher parts. I've been thinking about it, and I think the reveals you are going to get in book 3 are going to wrap up most of the plot lines and I am torn about continuing past some of that.  I have however put into motion the idea of revisiting it with a second season for year N151 (tentatively called Office Wars Mercenaries, which you will understand later). Anyway, expect a much bigger book 3 and an ending.  I might ...

Hello Everyone, I do apologize for not having a January post, but I was hoping that this announcement would come much sooner than today. That said, I am finally releasing Seventh Talon I: Dragonrider's Fury . To those of you who read Office Wars, this is a much darker series. This the first book in a trilogy, and I have another trilogy planned out as a follow up if people like this series. Several call outs. Steve Caldwell was doing something really awesome one day in the Facebook groups, he was asking if author's would donate a copy of their book to his friend, Kristi Haase, because she was recently diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis or MS. For those who don't know this is a very life changing disease, but more on that in a minute. I thought it would be awesome to write a novella with her as a main character, something small like a novella.  I wanted to do a overcoming strife type book. So Steve tells me, no joke, she loves guns, dragons, heavy metal, and anima...

Sorry for my tardiness.  This will be a fairly quick update. Seventh Talon I had several beta readers review this work and now I'm working on those fixes and updating some of the pacing.  All in all it was well received.  I just want to warn my readers, this is not a funny book like Office Wars.  There is some humor but its a darker book.  I really like how it turned out and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Office Wars:  Lab Coats Optional (Episode 3) is framed up.  I have the bare bones of the story, but it might end up differently than the first two.  I have a ton of content I want to use, but I might have to break the labs across two floors.  We'll see how it turns out when I start filling it all in.  Either that or this book is going to be much longer, which means I don't get this installment out as fast. Stay tuned, I'll let you know soon enough haha. Lantern Online This one I'm just stalling on.  The first draf...
