Latest Release
We’re celebrating my 25th anniversary in fiction and DAW with a collection of my short stories for you. I’ve added notes to each and, bonus? There’s an all-new Night’s Edge novella! Cover and interior design by Roger H. Czerneda.
Latest Release
I went big in my latest science fiction standalone (my new aliens included) to explore what I find most intimate and precious about us. Community. Curiosity and imagination. Above all, the drive to understand what isn’t us at all.
Behold! The beautiful cover for my new fantasy by Matthew Stawicki has been revealed!
I’ve been waiting months to show you and today’s the day. Along with details about the next installment in the Night’s Edge fantasy series, called A Change of Place.
Release date? We have it! April 30, 2024! (Sidenote: and it’ll be my 24th novel from DAW Books. Easy to remember that!)

My August
- Map-making. I’m labeling one of the new ones for A Change of Place and have one left to draw.
- Writing. I’m cleaning up all the lists and other notes. And might be taking some pokes at What Comes Next.
- Where we live August is our last reliable summer month, so we’re planning day trips. And wilderness camping. INTO THE WILD!
