My man, the one and only (and recently award-winning – congrats Ken!) Ken Dawson over at Creative Covers has come through with some draft ideas for the cover of Covenant, my verisimilitude-thick, vampire-action coagulated, urban fantasy that combines John Steakley with Mi5. Still not sure on the actual title, might have to add ‘The’ or …

Ruthfullness
More tales from the dusk-haunted dark. Ruth Cassidy is our secondary POV deuteragonist. She wore a couple of different names before I settled on what she now goes by, and it was more by accident than design she was given something biblical. After all, Ruth is generally regarded as a heroine, and the etymology of …
First, Knight
As we progress towards the launch of The Covenant, we continue with a few spotlights. Here’s a snippet of what’s in store and introduces our primary deuteragonist, Robert Knight: +++ Thursday 10 December, 1808 Hrs Zulu, Afghanistan. When the bomb went off, crimson gore spattered the windscreen and the driver’s window in a thick slap. …

Bye!’ – Captain Edmund Blackadder, receiving orders for the final attack, Blackadder Goes Forth, Ep 6: ‘Goodbyeee’ War Mages: Sharpshooter is as ready for deployment as I can make it. …
Boulder’s Edge
Peeking around the edge of the boulder now. The weekend draws near, and I just wanted to get a few quick posts out before the final launch of War Mages: Sharpshooter. Am currently buffing the last layer of polish and hoping it smooths everything out. It’s easy going, which is good, as that means there’s …
More Mages
As promised! The thick wall they’d just vaulted was a difficult climb, but not insurmountable. Looking at it from this side wasn’t so rosy. Archer saw it was a mess of scorched and pock-marked brick. At the base, buttressed with thick footings, stark pieces of bone were strewn amongst the assorted debris. A cracked, jawless …
Another Day Another Yarn
Am a day late for War mages Monday, since yesterday was very busy doing not much of anything it seems, but without shopping and taking trips to places you soon notice the gaps in your shelves. Anyway, here’s what I owe you all! Orca was a rush of activity, with Nunzia at the eye of …
Snapshot
Sharpshooter has come back from Magic Pencil, and I’m pleased to say there wasn’t much to do with it, thankfully, and only a few comments! 🙂 So, I’m grinding that, and Covenant at the same time, because you know; fun never stops. Well, that’s it Adventurers – hope you have a great day. 🙂
