Playing For Keeps
Do you want to see me dance?
Well, see, I want to see you dance.
In November, when I launched Playing For Keeps, Beatnik Turtle also released the song Playing For Keeps as a theme song. It’s a fantastic song and I was thrilled to have it associated with my book. And now that the book is coming out (AUGUST 25), I thought, [...]

Yeah, I went on and on about being part of 7th Son OBSIDIAN (heck, it was cool, what can I say?) and in the early days, back when I knew I was writing a story but no one else did, JC made a call for listeners to record videos during the blackout [...]

Mur Appearances Online
Someday I’ll do a book tour. For now, I’m on websites and podcasts. Less travel and sleep dep and bad food, also less chances to interact with listeners/readers. Ah well.

Playing For Keeps Issue 15
You thought we’d forgotten, didn’t you? Not at all, the ultimate issue is here, the story ending with a grand battle and some heroic actions by many.

The News From Poughkeepsie - Day 6
New superpower (could be Third Wave, could be in another universe, whatever you like): Your character’s day is one hour longer than everyone else’s - essentially the rest of the world stops for an hour while they live on.
