First of all, the observant among you have already noticed that the site has changed! It's still a work-in-progress, but the current version should run a little better on phones, and my designer is going to try out a few more tweaks in the near future. Send him your energy DBZ-style.

And now for the briefest of updates:

--I just returned from St. Louis, where I taught a brief session at the Realm Makers conference! It's a writer's conference that I knew practically nothing about before I went, which is why I didn't mention it ahead of time; other than the fact that I was going to be there, I knew almost nothing. But I'm pleased to say that I had fun, and hopefully the people who attended my session on The Pitfalls of Self-Publishing (And How to Avoid Them) didn't hate me too much afterwards.

--Speaking of conventions, I will be attending DragonCon in Atlanta again this year! Last year a few fans and I got together and chatted for an hour or two, which I'm more than happy to repeat if any of you are attending the con this year. Specific time and location TBA!

--The covers for all the Elder Empire books are complete, and soon they will be released on the blog and replaced on the ebooks! I'll let you know when that goes live so you know when to beg Amazon for an update.

--I can't think of anything anyone else could possibly want to know from me. Book updates? What are those? I can't hear you, la la la la...

(For real, though, I don't have any release dates for you yet, but I'll let you know when I do! Progress marches steadily onward!)

It’s been about a month since Ghostwater came out, so I thought it was time for me to check in! I took about a week off and then got back to work, but I haven’t been very communicative in the last few weeks. I needed some time in my hole. Sorry especially to the people who have emailed me recently; I let that get away from me during the Ghostwater process.

Speaking of which, Ghostwater sold about twenty thousand units in June! That counts ebook sales, paperback sales, and Kindle Unlimited reads. I know the number doesn’t mean a whole lot out of context, so here’s some context: that’s a lot of books.

Thanks so much, everybody! These books are a joy to work on!

Speaking of which, I’ll be revealing the rest of the Elder Empire covers soon! All six paintings are complete, all by the talented Micah Epstein, and they’re just waiting to cover some books!

Thanks for reading, as always, and I’ll be back soon!
