Hello, everyone! It’s been two years since my last Gordian Division book with David Weber released, so I’m very excited to say that the Book 3, The Janus File, is here – and shows an entirely different part of the Gordian multiverse. THE JANUS FILE (Gordian Division #3) by David Weber and Jacob Holo • […]
Wraithkin – Book Review
Now that I’ve reached a little slow point in my writing schedule, I’ve been able to use that time to read a little more. One of my most recent reads was Wraithkin, a military sci-fi novel by Jason Cordova and the first book in his ongoing Kin Wars Saga. The book starts out on the […]
Time Troopers is out today!
Today’s the day! ⌛ If you’re a fan of time travel stories both classic and new, Baen Books has an anthology for you – Time Troopers, edited by Hank Davis and Christopher Ruocchio. My entry, “Doctor Quiet,” provides an action-packed first look at some new characters you’ll meet in the upcoming The Janus File, but it sits alongside stories from such […]
Tales of Arise – Video Game Review
When I’m not writing, I’m usually playing video games, and my main game of the month has been Tales of Arise. This is actually my second play-through (and my first experience with the Tales franchise in general). Initially, I wasn’t the biggest fan of Tales‘ combat system, but the good news is each character has a distinct playstyle, so by […]
Adventures in Co-Authoring with a Sci-Fi Legend: Origins – Act III: Collaborations
Catch up on Act II here! Act III: Collaborations Naturally, being an author (a nobody indie author, but an author nonetheless), the concept of writing a novel with David Weber had crossed my mind. David is, after all, not only a prolific author, but a prolific collaborator as well. I had given David some of […]
Adventures in Co-Authoring with a Sci-Fi Legend: Origins – Act II: Monster Con
Catch up on Act I here! Act II: Monster Con We arrived early to David’s signing, hoping to not only get my copy of In Death Ground signed, but also to whisk H.P. back home to safety and comfort. This plan, as with many plans before it, did not survive contact with the enemy. David […]
Adventures in Co-Authoring with a Sci-Fi Legend: Origins – Act I: Cancer
I’ve been writing with David Weber for six years—first on The Gordian Protocol, then The Valkyrie Protocol, and now on three more novels set within the same multiverse, the first of which will come out later this year. Even after this long, the notion of writing with David Weber maintains a certain … surrealness in […]
Adventures in Heart Health and Diets – The Sequel
Well, readers, it’s been a little over a year since chest pains sent me to the doctor on my 40th birthday. 😐 You can read all about that fun adventure here, but given that a recent cardiologist visit gave me some good news, I figured it was time for an update. The good news? I […]
Adventures in Heart Health and Diets
Well, H.P. and I expected this spring to be an exciting one, what with the release of The Gordian Protocol. What we didn’t expect was excitement in the form of spending my 40th birthday at the doctor with chest pains. Heart disease runs in my family (as it does in so many)—it’s one of the […]
A Funny Story About Writing The Gordian Protocol
*Originally posted 3/6/19 on the Weber Forums. PLEASE NOTE: This post will contain a few vague references to parts of The Gordian Protocol‘s plot and characters. I’ll do my best to keep from spoiling anything, but those who wish to experience the novel without any spoilers of any kind should avoid this post in its […]
Holo Writing at HonorCon 2015!
H.P. and I recently attended HonorCon 2015, and we had a blast! The convention itself was certainly lower key than DragonCon or AWA, but the halls were packed with readers passionate about military science fiction in general and David Weber’s Honorverse novels in particular. Not only did we have plenty of fun, but this also […]
Disciple of the Dead – Released!
Book 3 of the Seraphim Revival is now on sale in in paperback and eBook! H.P. and I are immensely pleased to announce the release of the third and final book in the Seraphim Revival trilogy. This series has really been a labor of love from start to finish, and we’re very excited to finally have the full […]
