Hi Everyone! Just wanted to share that I’ve spent this weekend upgrading the old Brass Legionnaire site. Now it’s looking brand new and contains all the novels of the Steam Empire Chronicles! So check it out to see the entire series (and not just my ramblings on here!)
Come get your books signed at the Maryland Renaissance Festival on September 14th with me!
Hi Everyone! Just a reminder that I’ll have my first ever book signing at Page After Page – the bookstore at the Maryland Renaissance festival – on Saturday, September 14th, 2019. 
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. Come and grab your copy (Or bring yours to get it signed). I may even have some treats for those awesome enough to visit me!
Ciao!
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.
It’s Alive! Now all five books in the Steam Empire Chronicles are available to purchase in both digital and print format! Laurel Emperor has a paperback version!
Run, don’t walk to go get it!
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!
Enjoy a sneak peak at my WIP novella – the Last Gladiator

Anyone interested in being a beta reader – better let me know asap as I’m looking for feedback on this novella by Labor Day!

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!
This last week, as I wrapped up another summer school program with my local school district, I sat down and reflected on the difference it makes for my underprivileged students.

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.
