Zeke paced back and forth on his balcony, which was a new addition suite of rooms, probably prompted by his persistent complaints that his porch had disappeared when it had evolved from a cottage and into the tower it had become. The pair of rocki...

“You want me to do what, now?” Abby asked, leaning back in her uncomfortable seat among the sharp branches of the metallic nest.
“Is there a problem? Perhaps you do not wish to give up your weapon?” asked Mrwyska. “I assure you, th...

Come to us, child, came the thunderbird’s intrusive thoughts. The way is clear, and we will be undisturbed. This mental connection is…tiring.
Suddenly, Abby’s mind bloomed with knowledge, and she became acutely aware ...

Abby trudged up the shallow steps, which had been crudely cut into the mountain itself. The gnolls were a lot of things – vicious, territorial, and powerful, among other, less savory characteristics – but they were not expert craftsman. Their ...

I think this week was pretty awesome, not least because I was finally able to release the new artwork. I wish I could release the artist's name, but he wanted to remain anonymous for now. The story's coming along nicely (I really enjoy...

Talia skirted the edges of the cavern, carefully keeping just far enough away from the walls so that their creeping vines couldn’t reach her. She wasn’t certain if they were connected to the patriarch in the same way as the more ambulatory myc...

Pudge tackled a humanoid myconid into the tunnel’s wall, his momentum enough to shake loose enough spores to infect an entire village’s population. In an instant, his claws arced out, slicing through the monster’s fungal flesh. There was no ...

Abby peeked out from behind a boulder, taking in the scene before her. Laid out at the base of the mountain was a crude village, comprised of wooden huts, communal campfires, and a few crude totems that were clearly meant to depict majestic thunde...

As I said earlier in the week, Death: Genesis is going to be coming to Audible and Kindle soon (November 29). It's been in the works for a little while, now, but I wasn't sure if I was clear to announce it until now. It'll be narrated ...

Abby pressed her back against the wide trunk of the tree, praying that her stalker would leave off its pursuit. It was a vain hope, born of nothing but wishful thinking. Never was that more clear than when she heard it splash through the shallow s...

Tucker stalked through the heavy vegetation, hacking back and forth with a machete he’d bought in Salvation. It was useless in combat, but it had been enchanted with the ability to cut through vegetation with relative ease. In his travels, which...
