    Introducing the Pug of War!

    https://www.instagram.com/p/BSHI7gcBBcu/ Sometimes a piece of fanart comes along that digs into your brain and won’t let go. Last year at SC ComiCon, Phouthong Phimmarath surprised us with this little beauty, plopping the beloved pug butler from The Wizards Way into a fierce suit of Crusader armor from The Dragons of Jupiter.

    Dog Aliens #1: Raffle’s Name – Book Review

    I spotted Dog Aliens #1: Raffle’s Name by Cherise Kelley on a Book Barbarian promo, and with my love of all things animal and sci-fi, how could I turn it down? In Dog Aliens, Clem is not a dog, but rather a Kaxian, an alien race that looks exactly like Earth dogs and is living…

    EXCITING NEWS involving Jacob, David Weber, and a NEW BOOK!

    I have a funny Liberty Con story: My fellow authors and I were gathering for our Sunday panel last summer, proudly displaying our books so everyone could see what we’d written.

    Akame Ga Kill – Anime Review

    *Thanks to reader John B. for the recommendation! 😀 Akame Ga Kill is a deceptive series. Its colorful character designs and opening set up – Main character Tatsumi leaves home with two friends to join the Capital army and Be Good Guys – lead the viewer to think that it’s going to be a fun…

    Self-Publishing for Profit – Book Review

    These days, “How to Self-Publish” books are a dime a dozen. Chris Kennedy’s Self-Publishing for Profit is $6.99 on Kindle, but it’s easily the best $6.99 you’ll ever spend if you’re looking to break into self-publishing. Kennedy’s writing background is similar to that of many indie writers, which is to say, he’d never really been…
