“Don’t be nervous,” I told Morgan, who was fidgeting with the straps of the backpack in her lap.
Mihai pulled up to a rather nondescript gate in the chainlink fence around the airport.<...

“Stick it in her again!”
“No.”
“I want to see if it does it again!”
I tried not to sigh, because I’d been doing that too much this morning and was getting lightheaded...

Not everything I read, but the ones I truly enjoyed and want to recommend. Not all harem, either - I have layers.
Links are affiliate, so I make ... $0.19 if you buy one. :)
I'm still not happy with the stat sheet formatting, but have time before full release to figure it out.
The full release should be sometime mid-February, depending on when the audio's ready -- we're trying to get the releases in sync, so you can get the ebook and audio at the same time, an...

“Straight to the hotel?” Sam asked, getting out of the car. “Not even dinner? Hmph.”
“We ate earlier,” I said. “Which you were quick to point out at the time, along with how full...
2025-12-21 16:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostOne of the risks of giving you guys preview chapters so early is that my editor hasn't had a chance to look at things -- which, aside from typos, means some wrong stuff slips in.
In the last preview, one word was wrong and it has a significant impact. :(
At the end, it's said that Mih...

The Willowmere campus felt different in the summer, even from the entrance and before we got to the campus itself.
Mihai pulled into the drive, easing the van to a stop and rolling down the wi...

End of year inventory's a thing -- count everything, figure out the cost, put it on your taxes. It's a pain in the ass and I should be spending more of my time writing, not counting books.

One quick thing before the chapters -- I've finally gotten off my butt on the wiki for Warlock and it should start having some info posted soon. I'll post the link to the wiki then, but in the meantime, if you're interested in working on the wiki, you'll have to be in the Warlock Discord with you...

After-dark at a convention like this can be pretty intense.
First, Felicity dragged me to the vendor hall, because it was one thing to go into the panel discussions without a costume, but ther...

Turns out dellaKinki was the guy who made the suits I’d shown Felicity and they were very rare.
Also very expensive, which I’d known because the website had pricing — but I’d been with...

This is Kenya. She was a good girl and I had to say goodbye to her yesterday, so I'm going to share a short story set in my Alexis Carew universe written as J.A. Sutherland. Fair warning - while I th...

We spent a lazy Tuesday lounging around the living room, taking turns with the console to play games … that is, get annihilated by Felicity.
I thought it was about time we formed a guild or something so we could play with her, rather than competing. We also ...
2025-11-30 16:00:11 +0000 UTC View PostIt's Thanksgiving in the US -- Canada, for some reason, does it during Halloween Month, which seems odd. Anyway, my family never did the whole "go around and say what you're thankful for" thing, but today I'll say I'm thankful for all of you -- thankful you found Warlock and enjoy it so very much...
2025-11-27 05:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostA clarification from the poll - when I said one option is two chapters and the other eight, I was referring to the series of chapters in a row on that topic, not the size of the next drop. Sorry for any confusion - the drops remain one chapter a week (or more if they're smaller) for the time bein...
2025-11-23 16:00:12 +0000 UTC View PostI've mentioned before that my writing style isn't linear. That is, I don't start with Chapter One and finish with Chapter Last -- I write the scenes and arcs in bits and spurts, depending on what I'm feeling at the particular time.
Sometimes I'll even do it within a writing session, writing...
2025-11-16 17:00:12 +0000 UTC View PostEntirely ignorant of how things are done and too damn stubborn to give up.
Apparently, these were my defining traits, as expressed by the women in my life.
Even Mel admitted that summed up a lot of Blackwood warlocks, though she claimed they usually knew how things were done, they jus...

“I am not calling you … whatever the fuck that is,” Morgan told Cassandra.
“It’s like professor, teacher, or something,” I whispered to her.
Morgan raised an eyebrow. “I co...

2025-11-02 11:22:42 +0000 UTC View PostA one-chapter preview of the next bit of Warlock 4 for Halloween.
I had some ideas for something Halloween-themed, but didn't get to it, in favor of working on Warlock 4 itself. It's best to stick with what the words are coming for. :)
Nothing else coming this Sunday, and I plan on pr...

Tracking and defeating the bandits had taken most of the day.
I really wanted to get back to the Earth-side and check our gear for metal, but it was late and we were all tired, so we found a place to camp for the night and set up our tents. Luckily, we’d bro...

I’d just removed the second bar from the basement door after undoing all the locks and bolts.

2025-10-05 15:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostWarlock 4 is a bit over a third done at 56,000 words and its my primary writing focus right now.
Goblin Gigs is in final revisions and will then get an editing pass.
Preview chapters for both will continue, with GG being the bulk of the preview chapters until W4 is farther along.
