Yesterday marked the tenth anniversary of the release of my first novel, The Reluctant Captain. Since then I’ve published two more with the fourth in editing right now. To quote the Grateful Dead, “What a long strange trip it’s been.”

I finished the initial draft of my fourth book!

Have a Merry (Steampunk) Christmas!!

My books got a photo shoot because they are much more photogenic than their author

Since I’ve gotten a lot more followers here, I thought I’d introduce myself: I’m a software engineer who is an independent steampunk writer, cat dad, and trumpet player who plays in 5 different bands and a huge Star Trek fan - my book series was indirectly inspired by Scotty

I gave an author talk last night at a local coffeehouse and no one showed up. But I did record it: m.youtube.com/watch?v=JD-p...
