As part of Virtual FantasyCon (that awesome event where Murder In Absentia received an unprecedented five awards ;-), we did a blog hunt. Since I ran two blogs, I participated twice – and gave Felix a chance to speak for himself in one. Of course, the bastard went ahead and started to curse me for […]
Ancient Rome
Shade’s Shadow
This is a special story. It’s the darkest story I’ve written to date. I’ve been struggling to complete it for a while. Then Nikki, the organiser of UnDead Prom, contacted me about sponsoring the event, and I knew that this would be just perfect. So here you have it. Felix’s darkest and most bizarre case, published […]
Another #AchievementUnlocked and Upcoming Events
First for the achievement: I’ve been the subject of an official press release! And not for getting arrested! 😀 This is part of my sponsorship of the UnDead Prom. You can read the full text of the press release here. And, if you live around California, I highly suggest you check out the UnDead Prom too! […]
September #WIPJoy
Just a quick update, that I am participating the September edition of #WIPJoy on Twitter! If you’d like to learn more about the next upcoming Felix mystery, hear to this link (and this week was particularly fun – it’s all in Felix’s voice!) Just like last time, when it’s done I’ll post a summary of all […]
Interview Roundup and #Storyology talk!
A collection of links to original interviews and media appearances from the past month. This round was particularly enjoyable, as each interview brought in new questions, and exposed new aspects to writing, history, research and my personal history. Pagan Musings (Blog Talk Radio) – a podcast interview about anything and everything to do with […]
SQUEEEE!
Every author, every person really, has some authors they look up to. People who have “made it” and inspired them to write. So when one of them ends up reading your book and liking it… Well, a very loud “Squeee!” is in order. Ruth Downie is the author of the Medicus series, featuring the legionnaire medic and currently reluctant […]
FIFTY for FIFTY!
This week, Murder In Absentia has reached 50 reviews on Amazon! Not only is this an important milestone for any novel, those reviews are absolutely amazing! Over two-thirds of the reviews are 5-star, and the rest are 4 star reviews! I am truly humbled by the reception of Murder In Absentia, and to celebrate Purple […]
Oh, Fortuna!
As mentioned in my previous post, I participate in a lot of Twitter events. As chance would have it, this Friday’s #FictFri challenge was about ‘Fortune‘… I laughed so hard! ‘Felix’ in Latin means ‘lucky’. He often makes comments about his love/terror/awe relationship with the goddess Fortuna. So if you’re in the mood for some laughs, […]
Girl On Fire
News Flash! This story has won an Honourable Mention in the prestigious Writers of the Future contest in 2018! Read here for more details. One never knows where inspiration will strike from. I am busy drafting In Numina, and by no means was I looking to work on another Felix project while in the midst […]
Podcasts!
No, I haven’t started podcasting. However Murder In Absentia is starting to appear in more and more podcasts around the, err, not ether but Internet. The first one was by Joshua Calkins-Treworgy a few weeks ago. Then came Brian Basham with Night Reads, reading aloud the first chapter of Murder In Absentia. The latest podcast […]
