My blog is mostly inactive. Join my newsletter for the real fun.
Now, and then, I get a yen to blog, but it’s not the best way to hear form me about my thoughts or works. Instead, subscribe to my newsletter to get regular updates on my writing, read the Ellie & Todd stories from Space Traipse: Hold My Beer and enjoy unpublished or no-longer available stories about Vern, the dragon detective. Plus, you’ll get a free ebook of Worlds of Fabianspace with stories from each of my universes.
