You heard it right. The Dying Times is now available for only 99 cents. It’s the closest to a free sample of the series that I can drag myself kicking and screaming to accept. I haven’t decided if I will leave it at that price forever or increase it again after The War of the Dead comes out. Maybe it will depend on whether or not it sells well at this new price tag. It has so far, but I’ll ...

From several less-than-stellar reviews on Amazon, I can only gather that many people who are now reading The Dying Times are not checking out samples of the book prior to purchasing or not reading the samples available on Amazon.
At any rate, I want to say to anyone who might find this post: please read the samples of anything you are considering buying, you’ll probably be happier with your purchases. Now, onto the rest of the post.
I think that the chief ...

The Kickstarter Project has succeeded. Thanks to all the pledges and support over these long weeks! There were a couple of times in the project that I didn’t think we were going to make it, but I’m so glad that we did! It reached the goal, so it’s time for a little saving and scrimping on my end to save up the rest for the advertising!
All of the pledges should be receiving the electronic version of ...

The Dying Times: Nadene’s Story has been out for a month (as of yesterday). My, my, does time fly! This article is to look at the sales of the book with little to no advertising whatsoever. With the Kickstarter project 7 days out from fulfillment, we will see some real advertising effort in January and beyond, but this article focuses on the data we do have based solely on publicity and social networking efforts. To make it even better, I’ve ...

I wanted to spend a few moments talking about a website that I was told about called 24-7pressrelease.com. I have issued my first press release (for free). They have other paid options, but I won’t be getting into that until much closer to the time the book comes out. Right now, just a little stir is plenty. If I over-publicize right now, I run the risk of both burning myself out and ...

When Laedron Telpist’s sorcery training is interrupted by a knock on the door, what once seemed a proper profession must now be hidden. In a world where priests and mages vie for the limitless power of the elements and a new Grand Vicar has sworn death to all sorcerers, Laedron is tossed into a nightmare which would see his destruction at every turn.
From the home shores in western Sorbia, through the Cael’Brilland heartlands, and even across the seas to the great city of Azura, Laedron finds himself embracing old friends, consorting with unlikely allies, and confronting potent enemies. As he struggles to train himself in spellcraft, Laedron must face that he lives in a time when the utterance of a simple spell could be the signature on his death warrant.

Having arrived in the Holy Land, Laedron Telpist continues his journey to halt a war provoked by the Heraldan church. He discovers that the war he so desperately wants to stop is merely a prelude to something much older than he could have imagined. With the aid of his allies, Laedron must uncover hidden plots, bring justice to the rampant corruption, and end a conflict before it claims more victims.
Laedron, his friends, and the Shimmering Dawn knights face off against new foes, some willing to trade their loyalty for power and the ancient secrets of spellcraft and others more dangerous than outward appearances would suggest.

Laedron hasn’t been able to sleep for a week, yet he feels fresh and invigorated. He heals at an extraordinary rate, and finds that his hunger is satisfied by only a few morsels of food each day. Enhanced by the use of a soulstone, a vicar’s restoration spell has done much more than cure Laedron’s wounds, and a book with no name might be the key to discovering why. Unfamiliar with the deep implications of the magic behind his newfound abilities, he feels like his life is spinning out of control, and he must know the truth.
Laedron leads his companions to a land of vast pine forests to learn more of his condition, for the book mentions some of his symptoms and hints at the oldest secrets of mages. When he arrives in Lasoron, a strange old woman points him in the direction of the ancient ruins of Myrdwyer to uncover the answers he so desperately seeks.
An old feud, a host of soul-sucking enemies, and a madman bent on revenge stand between him and the answers he hopes to find, but he soon learns that some secrets are better left unknown to mortals.

Nadene Schafer never imagined a world plagued with the walking dead, and when she becomes infected with the virus, she wonders how much time she has left amongst the living.
A missile attack by the African arm of the terrorist organization known as Six releases a virus on the eastern United States and its allies. In the blink of an eye, the virus infects more than forty million Americans. The disease transforms the infected into cannibalistic monsters and spreads through the countryside like wildfire.
Nadene hopes that she can use her strange new abilities to help her friends to safety before the virus takes her life. With the living dead lurching around every street corner, the survivors are left with only two options: risk leaving their safe places to escape or remain hidden with no hope of rescue. In this new world, death watches from every shadow, waiting to sate its hunger on the tender flesh of the careless.
