I’ve been profiled in the local newspaper, the Ventura County Star, for writing Clockwork Heart and editing The Harrow’s Midnight Lullabies. The photo from the Star here shows me and some of the university multimedia students who are creating online promo videos for Clockwork Heart. The best thing about the being-profiled experience was meeting the [...]

Reader Lys Rian posted a quick review of Clockwork Heart on her blog, I Read What?? and included this sketch she’d made in her journal. When I was a gamemaster, I loved it when my players created sketches, poems, and stories about my game world. It delights me that Lys read Clockwork Heart and felt [...]

Sorry that I’ve been out of it, but I’ve been out of it — as in fevered and coughing for the last three days with no end in sight today. Ugh! This is the worst bout of illness I’ve had in ages. I blame the airplane trip back from Georgia…. However, in the midst of [...]

Keep your eyes open for a Clockwork Heart review & interview at BookFetish.Org. In the meantime, I’ve written another chapter and a half for King’s Monster, which is quite a feat, considering that I’ve been writing and then scrapping scenes right and left these last two months. KM is on its fourth complete version now, [...]

At last! I’ve finally received my own copy of Clockwork Heart. It’s been a little funny hearing people tell me that they’ve been reading my book but not ever having seen it, myself. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I didn’t get a chance to check the proofs, and as a result, I’m a [...]

SQT gave Clockwork Heart a great review over at Fantasy & Sci-Fi Lovin’ Book Reviews. “I don’t know if it was the technological slant of the book or the romance that hooked me, I suspect it was a little of both, but I thought it was very well done.” Yay! Y’know, I swore I wasn’t [...]

Reviewer John Hulet at FantasyLiterature.Net gave Clockwork Heart four out five stars. However, he wasn’t certain how to classify CH — that’s been a problem for us all along, I’m afraid! When I started writing it, my intention was to write a romance. However, it didn’t take long for my usual habits to assert themselves, [...]

Well, my friends tell me Clockwork Heart is going on sale at Amazon.Com now! I haven’t actually seen the book myself, mind you — the editor says a box is coming, but it seems as though ya’ll will be seeing the book before I do. Both Borders and Barnes & Noble have ordered copies, so [...]

Katherine Hooper of FantasyLiterature.Net, a professor herself over in Florida, interviewed me and asked for a copy of Chapter 1 of Clockwork Heart. Paula Guran of Juno Books kindly gave me permission to send it, so you can now read a sneak preview! Keep in mind, though, that the final version of the chapter may [...]
