Hey everyone! I hope the holidays were awesome for you all. I had a great Christmas. I’m going to recap the last few months and then go into what is coming next!

I went to a fantastic writer’s conference in Vegas and it really fired me up for the coming year. I have goals I’ll share in a little bit. Arsenal has done FANTASTIC this year. Thank you all for reading and loving it as much as I do writing it. There is something special about having people love what I write. 

What a year! I finished three, Full Metal Superhero books, one Superhero by Night (The Wraith) and a non-fic book (Writing for Life). My Facebook author page has grown to over two-hundred subscribers and we have almost sixty people in the group that is linked to the page. 

Goodreads has over 1,100 unique users reading my books and over 1,500 reviews in total. On top of that, my books are really well reviewed! My #1 book with a statistically significant number of reviews is The Wraith: Superhero by Night (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07KFZ6W5B) with a 4.41 average. Yay! 
Over 15,000 people read and enjoyed a story by me last year. That blows me away. Mathematically speaking, that means there was a person, somewhere here on Earth, reading one of my novels every second of every day. 

Just, wow. WOW!!!!!

What a great year and I have all of you to thank for it. Thank you! 
Now on to my goals for 2019! Write more good books! I’m currently working on The Wraith 2 (Welcome Home) and Arsenal 7 (Ancient Arsenal). I’m planning on releasing a book a month this year for the first 9 months. Then, at the end of the year, I will release a triple sized annual! This will be the start of a new tradition for me. Every year I will dedicate a few months to writing a massive Avengers-style crossover with all my heroes in one big event that highlights all of them. I’m really excited for the people you get to meet this year and how I will bring them all together in the final book of the year. 

Jan: Wraith 2
Feb: Arsenal 7
March: New Project
April: Wraith 3

And so on and so forth. May might be a little tricky since we’re going to have a new baby, but I am working really hard to make this schedule work. Of course, no plan survives contact with the enemy, so we’ll see how this goes. 

This will be an exciting year for me. I am thrilled to be a full-time author and even more thrilled to have awesome fans who like reading what I like writing. I’ve found my home in superhero fiction and I plan on doubling down and ending this year as the #1 superhero author in the world. I know it sounds ambitious but no one ever succeeded by planning to fail. 

In the more immediate now, the Full Metal Superhero Box set is on sale for 99c. (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07C1H4KHC) That’s the first four books for one low price. If you wanted to buy a gift for a friend, or you hadn’t gotten past book two, now’s the time to save money and read a fantastic series. 

Next week I will be on the Science Fiction and Fantasy Marketing Podcast (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkgP...) that should be out on Tuesday night. I’m talking about Writing For Life, my non-fic where I try to show a path to success as a writer. My philosophy is pretty simple. Work hard. Also, if I can do it, anyone can (See, I just saved you $4.99!) 

This year is shaping up to be awesome and I look forward to taking the ride with you all!
