I was excited this week when I received the proof copy of my new book, Sovereign Assassin from Shooting Star Press. While the ebook has been out for a few weeks on Scrib'd, Barnes and Noble, and Smashwords, this was the first time I got to hold a paperback in my hands. That's always a... Continue Reading →
Unfortunately, the wide release of Sovereign Assassin has been further delayed by my publisher. It will be out in paperback everywhere, and in ebook form on Amazon asap. In the meantime, the ebook is currently available on Smashwords, Barnes and Noble, and Scribd.

It was a fun project to work on together. I've recently written a post on how you can do this too.... Continue Reading →
