It's a new year and I've got a shiny new website to go along with it!
This one was built using Author Websites by Bookbub and I'm quite happy to say that it was very quick and easy to build just the kind of site I wanted. Links to all of my books with purchase options, books divided by series and by edition type (ebook, print, audio), a blog available on the front page so visitors don't have to dig for it, and so on.
If you're an author and are looking for...

I have a lot of shorter works, both novellas and short stories, where it just isn't feasible to pay a narrator to produce them as audiobooks. Given the technology has reached the point where I can record and produce audiobooks without a full sound studio, I thought I'd try my hand at recording and releasing some on my own.
The first two selections - audio productions of my short stories Carrion Man and Down Among the Bosnian Dead - were launched via my Shopify store this morning. They're just...
On Friday,I'll be minting the NFT edition of Judgment Day in partnership with Book.io.

The first time I caught Covid-19 was in April of 2020.
You remember those days, don’t you?
People were getting sick all across the world, but no one knew what to do about it. Here in the United States, President Trump declared a national emergency only a few weeks earlier on March 13th, the response to the pandemic was slow, to put it kindly. Disaster declarations were being made in state after state and deaths from the virus and its related symptoms were steadily increasing all over the...
Continuing the release of NFT editions of my Templar Chronicles series from Book.io, next up was Infernal Games. As with A Tear in the Sky, the exclusive cover art for this edition was created by yours truly and I'm proud of the variety I managed to bring to the table with this release.
For this edition, we offered 530 ebooks, with 139 unique covers and 48 1:1 ultra rare covers, and the entire offering sold out in a couple of hours. As usual, copies are now available on the secondary market...
WTF is The Taternomicon? The Taternomicon is an anthology of stories from a group of Book.io’s first “living” authors, pitting their series characters, or personal universes… against the overpowering essence of potatoes. Monsters, smugglers, Elder Gods, a wizard, and so much more. It is the perfect mashup of horror, fantasy and nonsense.

Hopefully, by now you've seen some of the Discord and Twitter posts detailing the forthcoming Templar Chronicles tarot card collection.
If not, the long and short of it is that I'm going to be producing a limited edition series of major arcana tarot cards (22 cards in all) featuring characters and scenes from the Templar Chronicles that will be released as Cardano NFTs. There will be thirty-five NFTs for each card, 25 with one common image and 10 with unique, 1:1 images.
The first card will be...
I've fallen in love with both NFTs and AI art. To bring these two creative processes together, I'm going to be producing a set of twenty-two limited edition digital tarot cards - one for each of the major arcana cards in a tarot deck - featuring characters and scenes from the Templar Chronicles.
Each card will be numbered and there will be thirty-five of each available. Twenty-five of those will feature one common image and ten will each showcase a unique, one-of-a-kind image. Cards will be...

I know it has been a while since you’ve heard from me and I’m sorry for that. I hope to get back to a regular communication schedule in the weeks ahead. For now, please accept my apologies for the long silence. I promise I have not been idle!
The good news is that I’m as recovered from my bout with Long Covid as I think I’m going to get. The bad news is that it is, at best, about 70% of my former capacity and I suspect that is as good as it is going to get....

My previous article noted several of the blockchain publishing companies that I had researched in my quest to find a potential partner for my own publishing efforts. I promised I would reveal which company was my favorite and, more importantly why, in my next article, so if that’s of interest to you, stick around and keep reading!
Of the companies on my list, I was immediately able to eliminate two of them – Spatium Stories and NFTBooks- for the simple fact that they haven’t actually produced...
As a New York Times bestselling author entrepreneur, I am always on the lookout for ways to improve how I serve my readership and grow my career.
For example, when little was being done to push my foreign rights, I took over doing it myself and sold my work into seven languages worldwide. When I found that I could represent myself better than most of the agents I’d worked with, I fired my agent and began negotiating on my own behalf. When it was clear that...
I’ve been thinking a bit about the utility of NFTs (non-fungible tokens) for authors and publishers in today’s book market. As a professional novelist for more than twenty years, I’m highly interested in how blockchain technology and NFTs can benefit someone in the publishing space.
Here are a few utility cases that seem obvious to me…
#1 – Collectible digital editions of new or current titles – The most obvious use case, given that limited collectible...
