One more thing!
I decided to add another book that I'm (also) sporadically working on, Weavers. It's an idea that I've always been toying with in my head; what would happen when magic meets mundane innovation? We get to find out!

Reading
I find myself with plenty of time at work, but too tired to write, so instead I decided to start reading. I picked up The Magician's Guild by Traci Canavan, and I realized a few things: My books are very quick paced, (I told the story in Realm of Man in a fraction of the length of The Magician's Guild) I need to slow down and flesh things out a little more, add a little more flavor to the scenes.
Another thing I noticed is that I tend to transition from scene to scene very well. I'm not sure if it's because there's little content in the scenes themselves, or if it's because I'm good.
I plan to go through what I've written in Lostling and make things a little bit slower, and I already had plans to go though Realm of Man and make numerous changes there.
The only trick now is to find the energy to do it.

Good to go!
Alright, the blog is officially ready to go! I've got pages, and posts, and a little synopsis for each series. The next few updates will likely be about the books themselves (Not guaranteed, as there are things I -could- do on the site)
First up on the chopping block, I should probably talk about the book I'm trying to get a following for: Realm of Man.
Realm of Man follows two different people, Sergeant Tom Royer on a recently colonized planet called Lyste, and Jonothan Doultan on Earth, as they unravel secrets and deep-rooted plots that involve the entirety of human space.
The year is 2316, and Earth has become unified after a third world war, forming United Earth. The combined technological powers, and reduced focus on scientific secrecy, mankind made leaps and bounds in terms of technological advancement, which allowed humanity to colonize planets outside of the Sol solar system. Sgt. Royer, a specialist on the biology on the planet Lyste, is using a recently developed technology called Artificial Biotics, or bodies that were created based on the user. The A.B.s allow Royer and his team to interact with the natives of Lyste to form diplomatic relations. However, another alien species interrupts things with a sudden attack on one of the human colonies on Lyste. Ordinarily, it would be no problem for the United Earth and it's military forces, but politics on Earth has put a stand-still on any retaliation or even rescue attempts. That's where Jonothan comes in.
Jonothan is an assistant to a representative who has been fighting to allow the military more freedoms, a longer leash, so to speak. As Jonothan meets with alien diplomats in place of the pre-occupied representative, in hopes of gathering out-side support on the issue, an attack is made against Earth's largest port, and a suspicious man is seen leaving the port. Jonothan chases after the man to find out there's more than bombings going on.
That's all I dare to tell, as much more and I'll be telling the story completely. Eventually I will have Realm of Man published on various and assorted sites, so hopefully it will be available to everyone everywhere.
Until then!

Humble Beginnings
AT the suggestion of a good friend of mine and fellow author, Terron James (Who is writing the Beholders series), that I start publicizing myself and my works. I thought that a blog would be the best way to start down that road.
I'll be putting up my thoughts and updates here. Since I'm so scattered, writing so many different things, there will posting often. The pieces I'm currently working on are Realm Of Man, a sci-fi short on an alien planet where our hero must decide how human aliens are, and how humane humans aren't. There is also the more recent Lostling, where a man of unknown origins and no memory, with a dragon companion who is searching looking for others its kind and who knows his past and who he is. There is also 'Coons of a Color, but I'm keeping that one secret for various and assorted reasons. For those that already know, I ask you not to publicize that particular series on here. That may change in the future, but until then, I'd like to keep it on the down and low.
I'll be giving each series it's own page on this blog. How organized!
