EMBRACE OF THE SPIDER QUEEN and a Dwarven novel

 Greetings once more. Excited to announce that my fantasy/horror story 'Embrace of the Spider Queen' will be included in the anthology 'Beautiful Darkness' from Dragon Soul Press, due for release around Halloween. It is a distant sequel to 'Solyn the Scavenger' [All Dark Places 2] and 'Solyn the Slayer' [All Dark Places 3] set decades later and following a different perspective. I have also just finished the first draft of a novel that takes places just north of the very setting in which the three stories mentioned above take place, but on the other side of the obsidian wall. A subterranean dwarven story. This project got interrupted by another book I'm writing (which was finished but then started getting expanded after a beta read - still some chapters to be written there) so it's good to see it done and, as a discovery writer, finally know the plot.

Call of the Ancients Craft and Retrieval

 As the torrential rain of summer departs to make way for the torrential rain of autumn, I'm  pleased to announce that two of my stories have been accepted for publication in Dragon Soul Press anthologies.  Firstly, 'Retrieval', a scifi / cyberpunk novelette for the anthology 'Surge' due out at the end of April and 'Call of the Ancients' Craft' a fantasy novelette for the anthology 'Beyond Atlantis' due out at the end of May, this year. 'Retrieval' is an idea I had sitting around for a very long time, that consisted of  nothing more than a 2-3 page intro that's moved from computer to computer since the 90s with the rest of my to-do-later list of scifi stories that took a back seat while I worked on music and other things over the years. The other part was a scene that has played out in my head every time I listened to the 12" version of Jesus Built my Hotrod by Ministry for the last 20 years. So I'm glad to finally see this s...
