As of yesterday I have officially sold over 5,000 copies of my books! This is a huge, huge milestone for me. In August of 2021 I clicked publish, thanks to the amazing support of all of you, I've gotten to tick off this major item on my 'success' checklist. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!

In Cerberus Reach you play as one of a remnant member of humanity, just trying to earn enough money to buy a ticket through the nearest Hyper-Gate.

Weird thing about me: when I edit, I 'save' letters. For example: In order to turn -I will- into -I'll- I carefully delete the space and -wi- even if it would be easier to just delete it all and retype. Gotta save those letters that have been already typed.
Follow me for more green energy tips.
This is so rad!!

Hey yall! So while I am here, I'm not really here. As in if you tag me in something I will swing by and check it out. Or if you shoot me a message. Or whatever you can do to make my phone go 'Hey Bob, remember that Bluesky account you have?' So just keep that in mind, if you expect me to see stuff!

I've calmed down now lol

The author surrounded by thirty plastic pink flamingos.
You shouldn't be asking why I have thirty plastic pink flamingos. You *should* be asking why *you* don't have thirty plastic pink--Nope. Scratch that. You should totally be asking why I have thirty plastic pink flamingos. #booksky #talesofweirdflorida #theflock

I have written six blog posts that summarize pretty much all aspects of life as an indie urban fantasy author in 2024. Lots of stats, lots of behind the scenes data, lots of transparency. I made a seventh blog post that gathers links to each with a brief description:

10 Southern Urban Fantasy series, on a map very loosely by where they are set.
