Now is, for many, not an easy time to focus up and deal with reality. We’re all fighting our battles and trying to maintain a façade of normalcy or, at least, functionality, even as we get polite emails from Canadians regretfully informing us they’re boycotting American entertainment juggernauts like me and, I presume, Disney+. The…
It’s been a long time coming, but my new fantasy serial is finally here. Click the link to get the scoop, read the first chapter, and see the complete artwork from the inestimable Heather Hudson. I can only hope you like reading this as much as I have loved writing it.
Not gonna lie to you, fans. This one got away from me. I wrote it a while back and could have sworn I put it up here, but… I guess I didn’t? Yeah, I am indisputably much better at ‘writing’ than I am at ‘being organized’ or ‘accomplishing business goals.’ But better late than never!…
When I started on Patreon, it seemed like a great way to do specialized releases of fiction for my small but unusually tasteful audience. It was pretty good, for while! But I just don’t want to be tied to them any more, for several reasons. Is Patreon going to dive into crypto? I don’t think…
Happy December, everybody! My immediate gift to you is Penitentiary Pool Boy, If you liked After the Cops but wondered what was happening to the prisons, their employees and the inmates during an anti-carceral culture shift (and resulting revanchist backlash), this is the one for you! A fresh-faced narrator gets hired as a guard midway…
First things first, because I know you love first things: There’s a new story! It’s called Slumber Farm Janitor and it’s about the future of elder care. Is it better than what we’ve got today? Worse? Only way to find out is to read it. (Starting with After the Cops, I’ve been writing what I…
Patreon-ed last year, Years Away is now available here, you can click that link and read it, go on! It’s the story of a social worker who specializes in recovered kidnap victims, for reasons that become more and more apparent as the story progresses. It’s not horror or fantasy, and it’s about crime, but I…
In the next four days, Pragta of the Happy House concludes on Kickstarter. The good news is, it’s hit goal, it’s printed and laid out, it’s definitely happening and it’s ready to go. The bad news is, I’ve made sixty print zines of it, each with a unique cover, and only thirty of them have…
First, best and nicest—the Patreon process has yielded another monthly story, Mick and the Beef, in which our titular podcaster and ex-rock-star psychic gets involved with incel culture, family, and a reality show called American Beefcake. Secondly, and almost as good, I’m gearing up for the next Borzhu novella Kickstarter, so start scraping together your…
I’m posting this on my 30th wedding anniversary, so I hope you can excuse me for being a little sincere. I’m updating the Patreon with the first romance story I’ve written with the intention of ‘this story’s going to be a romance!’ It’s called Gorgeous Synergies and it’s pretty funny. Also kinda long. The inspiration…
