A Recap of my awesome book signing event at the Maryland Renaissance Festival!
“Do you like Roman history? Or Alternate history? How about steamships? If you do, this is the book for you!”
I lost track of how often I said that Saturday at the Maryland Renaissance Festival in Crownsville, Maryland. But I’m excited to share how it went!
Book Signing Tomorrow!
Super Excited! If you don’t know the details, here they are again!
WHERE: Page After Page – the bookstore at the Maryland Renaissance festival – on Saturday, September 14th, 2019.
BECAUSE: 
If you’re in the Delmarva Area and want your book signed (or want to buy a book there and get it signed) I’ll be around from 11-5. It’s a great time to get the new paperback edition of Laurel Emperor signed by me! Come and grab your copy (Or bring yours to get it signed).

10,000 words in The Last Gladiator!
Hi all,
Just wanted to share a small tidbit from The Last Gladiator. I’ve written over 10,000 words now, and that means I’m over halfway done! Super excited to share this with you in the coming months! Read on to explore some of the new content in The Last Gladiator.
Print Edition of Laurel Emperor Incoming
You heard it right folks! About a year after it’s release in digital format, Laurel Emperor is coming to paperback! I know many of you have been clamoring for a paperback version, and not only will it be ready to go, but it’s release will be timed to coincide with my first book signing. In fact, if you’re able to attend my book signing, you’ll be some of the first people to access the paperback copy, and the first in person! Watch This Space!
Brass Legionnaire Officially Updated!
The New Edition is officially up and ready to go!
Edition 2.0 is now ready and in circulation! Just wanted to share that! Otherwise, enjoy this beautiful view of 
the Blackburn Inn in Staunton, VA. That’s all from vacation, now back to vacationing!
New edition of Brass Legionnaire coming!
A new edition of Brass Legionnaire is coming!
Hi all,
If you’ve read the title, than you know what this is about! Edition 2.0 of Brass Legionnaire is on the way! Don’t know what that is?! Check it out for only 99 cents on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Smashwords!
I wanted to share this because it’s a big step for me to go back and make some subtle tweaks and changes to Brass Legionnaire, improving the overall experience and adding small additional sentences, scenes, and such here and there. It’s not a major change, more a refinement. If you have the digital version of Brass Legionnaire, it should update automatically (within the next month).
I’ll also be excited to share the cover art for the Last Gladiator in the next few weeks.
Until then – Ciao!

Let’s expand our #steampunk world by embracing the #diversity that should be part of it. My take on diversity in a traditionally Euro-centric genre.

New Novella in the works – The Last Gladiator
Explore an excerpt from my new novella “The Last Gladiator”
Hi all,
I wanted to share the first page excerpt from my latest novella, the Last Gladiator. Focusing on a much smaller part of the world, it details the story of Master Ilyensio Horatio, master of the Ludus Magnus, one of the last training compounds for human gladiators in an era when the mechagladiators are about to dominate the colliseum. C&C always appreciated, let me know what you think! The goal for this is roughly 10-12,000 words, as I’d love to start getting some more novellas out this year and next with the eventual goal of creating that print anthology to accompany the Steam Empire Chronicle series.
