…a new web site!

It’s not, you know, completely new. But as 2020 dragged on to its ninety-eighth year and my Battle Ring Earth space opera series slated for a drop in early 2021, I was starting to feel like a bored teenage with a bottle of hair dye…I needed a new place to put my stuff. I had all the parts I just didn’t know how to put them together in a way that would stand out.

Enter the guys at Mod Farm Design. The result is as you see. Look at this thing. Look at it! New links, new graphics, new forms, and everything works. I’m especially happy with the sample frames for the books on sale: try before you buy a la digital pub.

Anyway, I’m learning all the new gear myself, so I’ll get back to that. Click around the offerings while you wait…

The story of ex-phone jock and current metaphysical warrior Julie Meyers continues, available on Amazon…

Julie Meyers is having a bad week. After defeating the Broadway Bull the former Hungry Corp. sales jock thought that fleeing New York City on a borrowed yacht with a few allies would be a quick path to freedom. Just head north on the Hudson River and leave the end of the world behind. But the Hungries neither forgive nor forget and Julie is still in their cross hairs.

Faced with an evil she can’t truly comprehend much less combat, all she wants now is to get home to her terminally ill mother and find some peace before the world ends.

Roving hordes of Slicers, opportunistic survivalists, and Black Hand soldiers stand in her way while a new player, hand-picked by Anatole Hunger, is gathering his power to wipe her off the board for good.

Now she must lead a ragtag band of fugitives—surviving co-workers, a wounded sea captain, a rogue NYPD detective, a fifth-grade gymnastics class and their helicopter parents—through the streets of New York City to safety.

If she fails, not only will she and her charges die, but the soul of the city she calls home will be lost forever…

This collection of 12 short LitRPG / Gamelit / Wuxia stories came about as a labor of love and a desire to give back to those who serve and protect us all in the armed forces. Each of these stories is an original crafted by some of the best authors in the LitRPG / Gamelit community in response to the prompt “Stories of Sacrifice”. We all wanted to pay homage to those who’ve sacrificed for all of us.

All of the funds from this anthology go directly to the Wounded Warrior Project as part of our “LitRPG Gives Back” campaign. We hope you enjoy these stories just as much as we enjoyed writing them. Here is a short description of each of the stories.

The Eternity Stone
A level 1 cultivator has the opportunity to change the fortune of his entire clan and gain Imperial favor, or trade it all for an unexpected opportunity no one knew existed.

Last Stand
One knight and his squire take a stand as their kingdom begins to crumble, protecting refugees from those who have betrayed their sacred duty.

FOB’s, Fobbits, and Fear
In a changed world, a routine patrol in Afghanistan will bring a combat medic and his unit up against a creature from myth and nightmare.
Siren
Using the power of music, Lyra finds an unusual way to contribute to her team’s victory.

One More Day
Being a father is never easy. Serving, while being a father can lead to the impossible, when all you need is one more day…

Drunken Initiative
Friends, beer, phones, and an excellent roll of the dice.

Guardian of the Wild
Have you ever tried to please the demands of a Dwarven smithmaster? I certainly haven’t been able to. Join me on the day when this axe girl ran away from her duties, finding something deeper and more powerful than any forge fire can produce.

Persistent Request
Two champions, strangers to one another, get teamed up in Darvonstone, where they must find the cure to the Wasting. But why does one of them seem to know more than they should about this strange world?

The Hive
How far would you go to protect your own?
How hard would you fight to defend your guild?
How much are you willing to sacrifice to avenge your hive?

Guarding the Pass
Krim is a player. That means he’s special. NPCs are just lines of computer data, capable of only doing what they are coded to do. Or are they?

What is Real, Anyway?
Two corporate headhunters watched their careers run aground after losing a fight with a brilliant tech recruit. Three years later, they’ve located her and vow revenge. But when they see she’s protecting far more than they imagined, will they help her succeed…or risk losing everything?

A Fairy Tail In Reverse
Who says that princesses always need saving?

Hi there. You’ll notice the blog looks a little different, which would be because we moved to a new website by way of BlueHost.com. I’m figuring out how to manage the blog’s appeareance now and I’ll be adding more links to books and so on as the days progress. Bear with me…I’m getting it done.
