It’s finally time! At long last, volume 1 of Light Unto Another World is live on Amazon (in ebook format for now; paperback will follow as soon as possible.) Yeah, this post is a couple days late; I’m still getting better at the time management thing that’ll allow me to be posting regularly here again.Continue reading “Light Unto Another World: The Journey Begins!”

Let Heroes Stay Heroes
What? A new post? Yeah, finally back to this. I’d blame the recent fracas with Hamas & starting a new job for my absence, but it’s mostly my fault for not managing my time better. Hopefully I’ll be at least semi-regular going forward. Now, on to the topic at hand. People talk about the heroesContinue reading “Let Heroes Stay Heroes”
A Look at Military Leadership in Attack on Titan
With Attack on Titan‘s excellent final season in full swing now, it’s obviously on my mind a bit more lately, so I wanted to talk about the show. However, there’s so much that can be said about it, and if I wanted to cover even just a portion of it, we’d be here all week.Continue reading “A Look at Military Leadership in Attack on Titan”
Coming Soon: Light Unto Another World
It’s been a while since I first introduced my next series, Light Unto Another World, and there have been a couple changes, and a lot of progress over those months. The only significant change is in the art style, as you can see. There was nothing wrong with the initial 2 covers I had done,Continue reading “Coming Soon: Light Unto Another World”
A Vision Realized
2020 is many things, both good and bad, but for me, in one sense, at least, it represents a milestone. This is the year where a vision over 15 years in the making finally becomes complete. We’re a matter of a couple weeks away from the release of the 7th and final book in the GalaxyContinue reading “A Vision Realized”
A Final Thought on “Representation” in Fiction
Now, I’ve talked a bit about this nonsense before, so I’m not going to spend too much time talking about why the whole campaign for “representation” in fiction is stupid. In brief, anyone who feels some sort of personal need for characters who look like them is pathetic. All that should matter in fiction is ifContinue reading “A Final Thought on “Representation” in Fiction”
Character Development is Overrated
What is this heresy, you might be asking? Everyone always says character development is so important in stories! Well, it’s not quite so simple as that. I’ve thought a bit about this for a while now, but after seeing 1917 this week and watching a few reviews of it, I decided to actually write this. See,Continue reading “Character Development is Overrated”
2020 Beckons!
Happy New Year, everyone! Hope you enjoyed any celebrations you attended, and I hope the new year–and decade–has gotten off to a great start! So last week, I released my sum-up of my 2019, focusing on writing related stuff but touching on other personal developments as well. Now, about a week into the new year–andContinue reading “2020 Beckons!”
Galaxy Ascendant 4 Is Here!
It’s that time again! I’m proud to announce the official release of book 4 in the Galaxy Ascendant series, A Fiery Reckoning Part 1: Ascendancy’s Rise. Without getting into spoilers, the book picks up soon after the momentous events at the end of book 3, A Shifting Alliance, as the war took a drastic turn,Continue reading “Galaxy Ascendant 4 Is Here!”
Some of the Failings of the Star Wars EU (Pre-Disney), and How to Avoid Making the Same Mistakes
I’m going to preface this by saying that, despite the flaws I’m about to expound upon, the old Star Wars EU is vastly better than what we have as Disney canon now. Just wanted to make that clear. That said, the old EU was very much a mixed bag, and made a fair number ofContinue reading “Some of the Failings of the Star Wars EU (Pre-Disney), and How to Avoid Making the Same Mistakes”
