Reminder: Book Release Party!

Just a reminder to everyone that Leaves of Flame, sequel to Well of Sorrows, is now out! Swing on by your local bookstore or check it out online! It's available in all formats (paperback, Kindle, Nook, etc). And I believe it's part of the 4-for-3 promotion on Amazon.com. (In fact, I think all of my books are on the 4-for-3 there.) To celebrate, I'm hosting a little gather at the Violet Room at the Lost Dog in Binghamton, NY, tonight starting at 7pm. Some light snack, a cash bar, and books available for purchase. Come downtown for the art walk and swing on by the release party! If you're in the area, of course, or can teleport in from your current location.

Congrats to Jackie Kessler and Ian Tregillis!

Two short stories from the anthology After Hours: Tales from the Ur-bar made Tangent Online's recommendation list for 2011! Congrats to Jackie Kessler and Ian Tregillis for "Where We Are Is Hell" and "Steady Hands and a Heart of Oak", respectively. Keep these stories and the others from the anthology in mind for the Hugos, people! There are some really good short stories in the anthology. Check out Tangent Online's complete recommendation list here!

Guest Blog: Details, Details, Details

I've got a guest post up over at arhyalon's blog where I talk about how I add in those little details that expand the world and make it seem more realistic without doing it as a huge infodump. Those little details, put in here or there, can really bring the world alive for the reader. Swing on by and check it out! And thank for having me guest at your blog, arhyalon!

Guest Blog: Creating Religions

Another guest post of mine went live on kythiaranos's blog. In this one, I talk about creating the religions on my new series, with a focus on the dwarren race. Stop on by and see what you think. And thank to kythiaranos for having me at the blog!
