We’re going to Dragonsteel Nexus 2025!!! I mean this isn’t news, I have mentioned this before. It is however the first SFF convention we will have attended, and we couldn’t be more excited. Dragonsteel Nexus has been growing and growing in popularity since the first “mini-con” in 2021 and is now one of the largest

By now you’ve been introduced to Fio, my new Publishing Assistant, who’s made a fantastic start so far. He’s definitely the right fit for

Well, July has been an absolute whirlwind! You guys really went nuts on the Assassin’s Apprentice public pre-order and set a new CK record of 3 minutes… Honestly, I never envisioned it selling out that quickly (even after upping the numbers!), so a huge thank you to everyone who bought one and sorry to anyone

“When you spring to an idea, and decide it is truth, without evidence, you blind yourself to other possibilities.” – Robin Hobb, Assassin’s Apprentice   We sprang to this idea some years ago.
