Mad Musings

A month or two ago I started a humble blog on my author website. On it, I dig into some interesting tidbits of history that may or may not have ever make it into any of my novels.

The latest one is on torture, mutilation, cannibalism among the North American tribesmen in colonial times and beyond.

If you are interested in reading my little mad musings, you can find them here:

Thanks so much.

Thunder of Guns

It's probably high time, I let my Goodreads folks know that book number seven of The Long Fuse series came out a couple weeks ago.

Thunder of Guns picks up right after the debacle at Carillon and Mr. Weber is again in the thick of things, causing problems or helping as the case may be.

If you are interested in these little tales, I hope you have a chance to pick up a copy and give it a read.

Enjoy. And Merry Christmas.

A Fort of Thorns

All

After many unexpected delays, the 6th book in The Long Fuse series is available. I'm so sorry it took so long. What can I say, life...

Hope you have a chance to pick it up. And feel free to review it positively or negatively if you do get a chance to read it.

Thanks - JasonA Fort of Thorns

Long Fuse Book 5

Holy Moly Folks

I forgot to let everyone know that 1757 is out (Book 5 of The Long Fuse series). You can get it on Amazon.

For the moment, I'm taking a little time to write another, one-off book before I dive into Book 6. This one-off takes place during the Napoleonic Wars from the Prussian perspective. Hope readers find it sweeping, epic, a little romantic, fun, and even informative.

Goodreads Giveaways

Goodreads, should anyone care to read this, please know that your change this year to your Giveaways has made it unusable. I mean overpriced. How can an independent author pay Goodreads a few hundred dollars to give away books and then pay all the printing and shipping costs, too?

A nominal charge to reach the audience would have been fine.

I've lost a great way to reach new readers.

I hope you reconsider.
