I have receive a lot of inquiries asking if there will be an audiobook for Siege Chronicles. Well, good news! Production of the Siege Chronicles audiobook has officially started, and will be narrated by the talented Michael Reimer. The book will be available through Audible. I do not have an...
Some of the worst writing advice I keep hearing is along the lines of “Don’t use any dialogue tags other than ‘said’.” I believe this originates from “Elmore Leonard Rules of Good (aka bland) Writing”. I fully intend to write an article addressing Elmore Leonard’s terrible rules, but the one...
I know it’s a few years old, but I just stumbled upon the “J. R. R. Tolkien vs George R. R. Martin epic rap battle” and it is truly a gem (perhaps even an arkenstone?) among the many excellent epic rap battles that have been made. Go ahead and give...
I just recently stumbled upon the weird and wonderful musical mashups by two Italian brothers call the Melodicka Bros. They do covers for famous songs and bands, but with a twist: they play the song way out of genre. So, for example, they have a cyberpunk/synthwave cover of Toto’s “Africa.”...

I would like to take a moment to showcase some of the wonderful artwork created for the World of Mythania by various talented artists from around the world. You can see all the artwork commissioned so far in the Mythania art gallery, but here are just a few good examples. To...
Disney just dumped an absolutely massive list of new shows coming soon to Disney+ streaming service, and it’s absolutely mind-blowing! Among many other shows, the super-stars of the announcement were those for Star Wars and the Marvel MCU. In the Marvel MCU there is WandaVision, Hawkeye, What If?, Loki, Ms....
It’s no secret that I’m a fan of Brandon Sanderson, and I especially love the books of the Cosmere “super-epic” which includes the epic series of Mistborn and the Stormlight Archive (among others). The world-building, characters, and magic systems of these series are nothing less than astounding. But sometimes it’s...
