I’m so stoked that “The Crimson League: The Fight for Hope” is still the number 1 ranked religious science fiction and fantasy new release on Amazon. Launch day was 6/15.

A Tale of Five Cities: “The Crimson League: The Fight for Hope”
Y’all, THE SECOND EDITION OF MY YA FANTASY LAUNCHED YESTERDAY!!! It’s an action-packed tale of a magical civil war, and I could not be more excited. This was literally ten years in the making.

IT’S PUB DAY! Why I went indie
People have asked me why I went indie, or tried to encourage me to seek a more traditional route to publication. Given that “The Crimson League: The Fight for Hope” just launched on Amazon and is on sale for 99 cents (the ebook version), I figured this is a great time to briefly explore that…

Character Spotlight: Kora the Resilient
Launch day is in 2 days, so today I’m spotlighting protagonist Kora Porteg! I could easily have titled this post “Kora the Courageous,” and it would have fit. The alliteration would have been nice, too. Kora’s seventeen when The Crimson League: The Fight for Hope starts. She’s a peasant girl doing her best to help…

Success for me isn’t only about the book sales
Fantasy and magic are so beautiful in a story. They have ALWAYS captivated me. I think that’s because there’s something about the theme of magic in a story that lays bare the human condition without raising our defensiveness. So, how will I judge launch day on Thursday a victory? How will I judge whether my…

Last excerpt before launch day: Fortunes and the Hall of Sorcery!
Launch day is THURSDAY, guys! Given that the cover of The Crimson League: The Fight for Hope prominently features Herezoth’s ancient Hall of Sorcery, I figured I’d include an excerpt that features it this week. This excerpt also features a fun, somewhat nerve-wracking, visit to a fortune-teller. Check it out! Kora dreamed that night that…

Third Editorial Review for “The Crimson League: The Fight for Hope”
I’m so excited to share a third editorial review for The Crimson League: The Fight for Hope! The emphasis on this one on theme: on the role of magic, and what it means in the story, and how it isn’t a love story at the core, are spot on. Here it is! In The Crimson…
