Hey, It’s been an Olympic week and your favorite characters have been watching clips of the various events because the scribe wouldn’t pay for a streaming service so we could watch it in real time. Congratulations to all the athletes for qualifying for the Olympics! Whether you medalled or not, you’re all amazing. And do you know what else is amazing? Book news! We didn’t get a gold medal, but we have gold foil on our books, so that counts as gold, right? And you can get some bling for your bookcase by ordering a copy of the illustrated edition … Continue reading Take home some gold too!

Hey, Melinda was sick this week so I was a nice character, and I didn’t beg her for more page time. It took all my willpower to leave her alone, but I can be the bigger character. Well, not physically since I am the smallest and youngest character in the Curse Breaker series. You guessed it, this is Ran, Sarn’s sunny son. Yes, that’s alliteration, and no, I’m not sorry about it. But I am still plotting behind the scenes. I didn’t give up on my plans to take over the writing queue. I just paused them to be nice … Continue reading The Plot Thickens

Hey, Another week flew past. Thankfully, it was relatively quieter. What have your favorite characters been up to this past week? I’m glad you asked! I’m Ran, Sarn’s son from the Curse Breaker series and Guerren, the morally gray, “I will help you if there’s something in it for me,” ex-war god has been hanging around this week, polishing his sword. No, that’s not a euphemism. He’s been polishing a real sword and smiling that “I know something that you don’t” smile a lot. But he’s not doing either of those things in a threatening manner. He’s just doing them … Continue reading He was polishing his sword

Hey. It’s been a week, hasn’t it? Lots of things happened. This is Ran, Sarn’s son from the Curse Breaker series as usual, and no, I did not cause the outage on Friday. I know you were wondering. But I can say with complete honesty, it wasn’t me. I had nothing to do the Crowdstrike update fiasco thing that gave a lot of computers the blue screen of death. But I can’t tell if my nemesis, a digital dragon who’s supposed to just deliver our email and ebooks and do nothing else, had anything to do with it. Why don’t … Continue reading Did the dragon do it?

Hey, Thank you so much to everyone who backed the Rogue Gods illustrated trilogy Kickstarter!
