Thursday, April 6th, 2023 @ 7:16 pm | 8Comments

This is one of those "surprise!" cover reveals. It's not like Brandon Sanderon's where he'd written a bunch of books during the pandemic, but it is something that was previously unplanned on my end. First of all, the news - I'm writing a new Kingfountain book! This has been quite... Read More

10 Years of Muirwood

Wednesday, January 18th, 2023 @ 7:59 pm | 11Comments

Ten years ago this week, 47North released The Legends of Muirwood as a trilogy all on the same day. That's not a typical thing for a publishing company to do. It wasn't a typical thing for me to do either when I self-published the trilogy all at once myself. I could... Read More

I've been keeping this news pretty close to the vest for a while now, but it's official now and I'm excited to finally spill the beans about my new series. Last year, I had a terrible nightmare while on vacation. Quite action packed (which my wife likes to tease me... Read More

The Comfort Zone

It's been a few months since I wrote a blog post. It's been a busy summer so far and lots going on. Our family took a trip to the East Coast to do some historical sight-seeing (Federal Hall in New York, Weehawken in Jersey, Philadelphia, Gettsyburg, DC). We had a... Read More

I can't believe that it's time to share the cover for book 3 of my new Muirwood series. It's been a whirlwind putting together this trilogy and so very neat that the cover is now *live* and ready for the third and final book. It's also available... Read More

Cover Reveal – The Hunted (Dawning of Muirwood book 2)

Friday, February 4th, 2022 @ 7:44 pm | 1Comments

Yes, it's time for another cover reveal! Book 2 of the Dawning of Muirwood is coming in September and the cover art is now up on Amazon, so I wanted to share it with you. You can pre-order this here: https://amzn.to/3upoY1F

If you'd asked my teenage self what I dreamed of for in the future when I hit my 50's, I probably would have said either owning a DeLorean (Back to the Future) or a Lotus (For Your Eyes Only). Or being a full-time author. At least one... Read More

Tales from Kingfountain, Muirwood, and Beyond

Tuesday, November 9th, 2021 @ 2:00 pm | 3Comments

The very first short story I published for Deep Magic was in the June 2002 issue. Because that issue also included an excerpt from my fantasy novel LANDMOOR, I decided to publish the short story under the pen-name JT Slane. That story "Wizard Auditions" is now almost... Read More

This is the first time I've done a book club for one of my new releases, so I'm pretty excited about it. BingeBooks reached out and asked if they could host a special Zoom chat for my fans and theirs to discuss the latest book in the... Read More
