Podcasting Legends

I’m giving that title to someone else, not me, namely Scott Grandison, my partner in crime on our podcast of eight years last week, Comic Book Outsiders. When we started podcasting we had a sign at comic book conventions on our table that said – Ask us about podcasting! Several times an hour, people cameContinue reading “Podcasting Legends”

Updated Appearances

I’m hoping to have some news in the next couple of weeks about events closer to the time of publication for Battlemage. However, I’m going to be appearing in a few places in the meantime in the run up to the end of September and publication date. So I’ve added details as I have themContinue reading “Updated Appearances”

Holiday Reads 2015

I’m off on my annual holiday soon. As ever, my to read pile is massive and I’m always behind on most things, TV, films, comics and especially books because I’m not a fast reader. Partly I’m also behind because there is so much stuff out there, so some things have completed bypassed me and I’llContinue reading “Holiday Reads 2015”

A painful journey down on Friday meant I arrived late but just in time to see the last half of the openingContinue reading “What happened at Eastercon 2015”

Eastercon – Dysprosium

This bank holiday weekend I’ll be at Eastercon or, Dysprosium, as it is called this year, the 66th annual event where SFF fans gather to drink, I mean, talk about books and stuff. This year there are some exciting and interesting guests of honour that I’m looking forward to meeting, but I’m actually more excitedContinue reading “Eastercon – Dysprosium”

A Black Time

I was going to do a post about writing, about juggling different parts of being a writer and having a day job, but then three pretty big things happened in the last few weeks. First, Leonard Nimoy died at the age of 83. I’m sure I don’t have to explain who he was to anyone.Continue reading “A Black Time”

Trilogy Power Up

I’m very happy to announce that Bragelonne has picked up the French rights to all three books in the Battlemage trilogy. It’s an amazing feeling to get picked up by one publisher, but to know people will be reading your books in other countries around the world is kind ofContinue reading “Trilogy Power Up”

October Status Update

For my 100th post I was trying to think of something special, but kept coming up blank, but this is kind of special for a number of reasons. So it will have to do. Books Battlemage – So, I’ve just finished the latest draft of book 1, Battlemage, and it has now gone off toContinue reading “October Status Update”
