The winner of yesterday's challenge, as chosen by the wheel, is @benschenkman.bsky.social, who chose the Debt Collection series by Andrew Sigils. Congrats! You've won The Souls' Abyss series by SC Gowland!

What's Let Sleeping Gods Lie about? Well, Daniel and I get *way* into it on Nov 10th, but for a sneak preview of how I explain it, check out this clip: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxDC...

For all you MA/CT local yokels, three authors from Caffeinated Terrier Press (yours truly included) will be at the Hadley, MA Barnes & Noble signing books and talking with readers from 1-4PM. Come say hi! www.facebook.com/events/14385...

It's Friday afternoon in A Month of Rain & Reads, and after a foggy morning, it's time for an interview. This time, we hear from author and game creator Dave Dobson (@davedobson.bsky.social) about the challenges of writing bios. www.readindiefantasy.com/amorar-inter... #AMoRaR #BookSky

I've continued to enjoy @sigils.bsky.social 's "Debt Collection" series, especially the audiobooks. #AMoRaR

Another lead-up to my Nov 10th interview with Daniel, which god would you talk to if you could? www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ca6v...

I take a lot of pride in what I do. Listen to my conversation with Daniel Coolbaugh about it on November 10th, for his Fantasy and Sci-fi Fanatics podcast! Sneak preview available today! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bwip...

Curious about inspiration for the opening chapter of Let Sleeping Gods Lie? Where'd that raccoon come from? Well, I talked with Daniel Coolbaugh about it on his podcast! Airing on 11/10, but you can get a sneak preview of our conversation starting today! youtu.be/WW0FQc7SgmI?...

It's been way too long since we posted a book review. So today, we're happy to share one. These are Nils' thoughts on My Boss is the Devil, by @benschenkman.bsky.social A cozy contemporary fantasy story about selling your soul to the devil.

So with Let Sleeping Gods Lie on pre-order, I need your help. I have two covers, but I can't decide which one I like more. Let me know what you think of these, and which you think is more eye-catching, evocative, or just plain cooler.

As promised, here is the Audible preorder link for the second volume of the Guild Mage series: Eld!

So I finished Wind and Truth, and I don't know if I want to do a mini review on social media and get dragged by Sando fanboys when I say "it was too long, needed a good edit, and contained many POVs and interludes that I neither cared about nor thought contributed in a meaningful way to the story"
