There was a minor formatting issue with The Book of the New Moon Door‘s audio, which prevented it from appearing on Audible. Thanks to the lovely people at Author’s Republic, that issue should be fixed now. I’ll let you know as soon as I find it on Audible.
The holiday sale is still going, and will be active through the end of the year! Paperbacks make great gifts and are easy to wrap, or you can just order for yourself.
I’ll be working on Last Watch Before Dawn this week. Stop by again for more pages.
I had a lovely time at What the Hex yesterday and Story Keepers Books on Saturday! Thank you to everyone who braved the cold. I think I’ll be taking a bit of a break from events for a couple of months, but I will keep you posted.
I’m working on another page of Last Watch Before Dawn, which will be up tomorrow! Someday I will learn how to manage my time enough to maintain a backlog of content for you, but not today.
I apologize for the video thumbnail staring into your soul.
I’ll have some Bonus Art for you tomorrow on Patreon, and a new page of Last Watch Before Dawn by the end of the week. I’ve just finished the first “chapter,” and we’re moving on to meeting some new characters next.
This weekend, I will be out and about! Story Keepers Books is having their first anniversary sale this weekend, and they’ve invited some local authors to help celebrate. I’ll be there on Saturday from 10 until noon: 7035 W. Greenfield Ave., West Allis, WI.
On Sunday, I’ll be at the final What the Hex for the year, noon until 5 at Dresden Castle on Underwood, Cudahy, WI. Entry is $3, and gets you access to a whole market of artists, craftspeople, and readers, as well as free workshops and performances!
I’ll be back to remind you about these events later this week.
I’ll have another page of Last Watch Before Dawn for you tomorrow. It will be the last page of this first chapter, so next up will be some bonus art, and then we’ll be moving onward and forward and meeting some new characters! I’ll try to get the bonus art out later this week, but you may have to give me some grace around the impending holiday. I have so many pies to make. Going forward, I am going to try to stick to a posting schedule of Tuesdays and Fridays with (hopefully) minimal interruptions.
I’ll be back soon with more comic. In the meantime, take care and stay warm, and I hope you have plenty to eat whether or not you’re observing Thanksgiving.
I had a lovely time at Story Keepers Books on Saturday. I love meeting readers the best, but I often meet other authors, and since I’ve been doing this for a little while, sometimes they ask me about independent publishing. This happens often enough that I think IngramSpark should give me a sponsorship for all the free advertising I’m giving them.
Even though they definitely won’t, I can still answer your questions. I’m mostly making things up as I go along, but I did finish three books and get them out into the world, so I guess I know something? Comments are open, in any case.
My goal for this week is to finish the next page of Last Watch Before Dawn today or tomorrow and finish another page by Friday. We’ll see how it goes.
In case you missed it, The Book of the New Moon Door is now available on more audiobook platforms. It may also be available from your library’s digital catalogue! If it’s not, you can always request to be notified if and when it’s available. If enough people do that, the library will buy a copy.
I’m working on another page of Last Watch Before Dawn, and I should have it ready by Wednesday. I’m hoping to get to a pace of two or more pages per week, so as to finish the first volume before the heat death of the universe.
On Saturday, I’ll be at Story Keepers Books in West Allis, WI for a Meet the Author event! The address is 7035 W Greenfield Ave, and the event runs from noon until 3. Bring books for me to sign! The shop has a few, also. More information can be found here.
I hope you had a happy and safe Halloween. I would like to report that my baby was extremely adorable in her dragon costume.
I was hoping to get some drawing done last week, but the audiobook ended up taking up all my time. In related news, THE AUDIOBOOK IS LIVE! I’ll be back shortly with links and things for you!
So, I’ll be drawing this week, and will hopefully have a page for you by Wednesday. Now that the audiobook is done, I will try yet again to get back to a good working and posting schedule.
I am almost done uploading The Book of the New Moon Door to Author’s Republic, which appears to work similarly to IngramSpark in that it distributes audiobooks to various platforms such as Audible, Libro.fm, and so on . After that, the files all undergo a validation report, to make sure they meet the platform’s requirements. If that all goes well, we could see a release as early as next week!
Other than that, I’ll be working on Last Watch Before Dawn, and I hope to get a couple of pages finished this week for your reading/viewing pleasure. The Well Below the Valley will also resume, slowly, as it doesn’t seem to be attracting many readers, but I still want to get it done.
I will be back with updates soon! In the meantime, here are some petitions:
I had a lovely time at both Spooky Frog and What the Hex this past weekend! What the Hex was interrupted by a church group handing out flyers about how we’re all going to Hell, but they were eventually driven off.
I also realized that I’m seeing a lot of people who have already read one or more of my books! It is really great to recognize faces and be recognized in return, but I need to get some new material out! To that end, I’ll be trying to focus more on the comic than The Well Below the Valley for a little while, though you should expect new content from both to gradually make its way to you.
Last week’s episode of The Well Below the Valley will be up here on Wednesday for free reading.
The recording of The Book of the New Moon Door is finished and edited! I’ll be uploading it to the audiobook platform this week. Expect a release date soon.
I am running on very little sleep, but I should have the next episode of The Well Below the Valley ready today. It’ll go up on Patreon on Wednesday. I’ll also be starting a new page of Last Watch Before Dawn this week, in which we’ll finally get some dialogue!
The audiobook of The Book of the New Moon Door is coming along. I think I can safely say that it will be out sometime in November, hopefully early. I’d love to have it ready so that it’s available for anyone who needs something to listen to during holiday travel. I’ll update you as the process goes!
I’ll be out and about this weekend, so if you’re free and in the Milwaukee area, I’d love to see you! First up is the Spooky Frog Horror Book Fair on Saturday the 18th. We’ll be at the Sheraton Milwaukee Brookfield Hotel from 11AM to 4PM. There will be horror authors as well as artists and craftspeople, free hors d’oeuvres while they last, and a live DJ set by Goth Barge. Entry is only $5. If you’re going to the protests that day, I wish you power and safety, whether or not you can find the time to stop by.
On Sunday the 19th, I’ll be at What the Hex: Dia de Muertos from noon until 5PM at Dresden Castle on Underwood, Cudahy, WI. Entry is only $3 and gets you access to the market, live performances, and workshops on magic and healing. What the Hex is always a fantastic time, so if you’ve never made it to one, I highly encourage it.
