It's happening tomorrow! 📚📚📚 Fellow Coloradans, I hope you'll join us local fantasy authors at The Tattered Cover in Denver. Be there at 6 o'clock sharp for discussions of our author journeys, Q&As, and other bookish shenanigans. Hope to see you there! 👋 #Author #bookstore #denver #Colorado

Just got back from a family trip - which means it's time to send off all the orders that came in while I was gone! Always appreciative of those who order books direct from authors 🫶 #author #books #bookshop #fantasy #epicfantasy

Long have my locks grown. But every tale must come to an end. Lo, the haircut hath arriveth! #author #haircut

Anderson's at it again with more titans for The Bestiary! Enjoy seeing a River Serpent and Mirror Swans for the first time along with his take on a Reef Whale. 24 total titans are going in The Bestiary. Only in the Titan Edition of Revenant through its recent Kickstarter! #fantasyart

The proof copies of the standard version of The Titan Revenant arrived this week! Nothing like holding the book you've been working so hard on. Turned out just like I'd hoped! The version with the Bestiary is still coming, so stay tuned for that. #newbook #fantasy #author #books #dragon

After a week of plotting, I've finally started writing Book 2 in my upcoming series The Dragonforged Saga! Book 1 has yet to come out (slated for a September release), but there's no harm in getting an early start, eh? #dragons #amwriting #dragonrider #epicfantasy

Just did my civic duty and voted in the primaries here in Colorado! This year especially, it's important to weigh in on your local and state politics. I hope you'll vote in whatever elections are happening around you! #vote #VoteNow #primaries #author #voting #civicduty #ivoted

When you forget to grab a selfie, you have to create one! ;) Had an awesome chat over beers with the one and only @saklopfenstein.bsky.social! Known Stephen for years, so it was fantastic getting to meet him in person at last. Don't miss his upcoming KS, by the way! #author #authorlife

This is what a pantser gets when he tries outlining... 😅 Am I the only one who does this? #amwriting #pantser #plotter #author

The foil bookmarks arrived for Shadow of Legends! 🔖🐉 It's my first time getting this kind of bookmark made. I fear it's the start of an addiction... #fantasy #bookmark #dragon #books

Another update on The Titan Bestiary sketches! 🐢🦇🐛 Can you believe we have the majority of them still to come? Can't wait to see what else Anderson comes up with! #fantasyart #artsketch #titan

I've spent a pretty penny on art for my deluxe edition books at this point! Was it worth the cost? ✨📚 Tons of artists involved here - see all the credits on my campaign and store pages! #fantasyart #fantasybookseries #fantasybooks #epicfantasybooks #epicfantasy #specialeditionbooks #author

Since he recently took a severance package from his job, now's a good time to start reading Zack Argyle's awesome books! Zack's not only one of the most humble authors I know, but supremely talented. Threadlight is an excellent trilogy - especially in its fanciest format! #fantasy #books

I had the horror - I mean, honor - of being interviewed by the one and only @marktimmony.bsky.social! Here are some teasers of my answers. Check out Booktopia for the full thing! #author #interview #booktopia
