Shameless Self-Promotion and the Wonderful World of Branding

As promised (or would that  be “threatened”?) I’m doing another promotional post today, to mark tomorrow’s release of the third and final book in my Blood of the Southlands trilogy.  The book is called The Dark-Eyes’ War, and it is, at least for now, the final installment in the long-running epic fantasy story arc that [...]

I have friends who want to be published, and who think that [...]
