Novelettes

I began publishing short stories and novelettes in 2017, mostly in various Anthologies. Since then, Tannhauser Press has seen fit to re-publish most of them as ebooks, as well as deluxe print editions with extras such as worldbuilding details, extra vignettes, etc. I have also begun publishing novels, as well. Most of my stories are set in various loosely connected series.

My first novel was published in 2021, with more on the way.

Novelettes – Thousand Kingdoms Series

The Thousand Kingdoms is a second-world fantasy series, which means that it’s set in another world that’s not based on any particular time period or real-world antecedents. Unlike most fantasy series, magic is relatively common and elite mages can be exceedingly dangerous.

Novelettes

I promote my novelettes as Quick Reads, for people who want to read a good story, but don’t have a lot of time. They’re published as ebooks, but also have a print edition with extras that aren’t in the ebooks. I sell a lot of these print editions at conventions, but they’re also available from Amazon. Incidentally, “The Jakarta Breach” is currently only available to Newsletter subscribers.
