September 2026 Updates:
USV News
USV#4: Odin's Hall is nearly done. Once I've completed my current read-through, it will be going back for its second round of editorial. I'll then return to working on USV#5: Markland Aflame. I've also finished two Norse American short stories, which are just waiting for their bus to editorial.
USV#5 is coming along well and is over halfway done.
2026 is going to see quite a bonanza of USV fiction! At the end of September, I should be confirming release dates!
Hang in there. We're nearly there!
Ossard News
The Ossard series will be finalised next year and followed by a surprise fantasy release. I'd hoped to wrap it up this year, but USV has eaten up most of my writing time. I'm currently rereading the whole series to ensure all loose ends are wrapped up. I really want to get this done, but USV needs to get a batch of releases first. I'm sorry it's taking so long!
Red, White & Blue News
My near-future science fiction series, the Red, White, and Blue setting, will see new releases in late 2026 and early 2027. White #1 just needs a final revision, White #2 a few new chapters written, as does Blue #1 & #2. Red #2 also needs some work. I occasionally work on projects like these, outside of USV, to give me a change of scenery and keep me fresh. I will release these when they are ready, and mostly batched together, but my creative priority right now is USV and wrapping up Ossard.
Upcoming Appearances
None Scheduled
Broadly speaking I'm taking a break from public apperances after more than a few hectic years.
If there is an event you would like me to attend feel free to suggest my name to the organisers so that they may make an approach. I do eventually want to get back to doing some, but at the moment my focus is writing. I am no longer available for book store signings.
