THE SOPRANO SORCERESS will be receiving a special eBook price for the entire month of September — at just $3.99.

Middle-aged opera singer and university voice professor Anna Marshall gets her wish — to be anywhere else but at Iowa State University — and finds herself in a highly misogynistic world where magic is controlled by song.

If you haven’t read it, it’s the first book in the Spellsong Cycle, at a very low price.

This coming Friday — August 18th — I’ll be doing a signing of my latest book — Contrarian — at Marissa’s Books in the south Salt Lake City area.

The signing is from 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at

Unbeknownst to me, some software interfaces were combining to flag every question posed through the Ask the Author section of the website as spam, but spam of a sort that never even got to the spam section of email. Apparently, they went to spam limbo or the equivalent.

We THINK we’ve got the problem solved. At least test questions are now getting to me.

So if you have or had a question, please try again!

“The Unexpected Dachshund” is my short story in Instinct: An Animal Rescuers Anthology, which will be out on March 7, 2023.

The theme of the anthology is how our animal companions can at times rescue us, and my story deals with, naturally, a dachshund on a colony planet with an eco-system that turns out to be much stranger than anyone imagines. The dachshund, of course, is based upon Buddy Mozart, whom I’m holding in the poster below.

And besides enjoying my story [I hope], if you buy the anthology, you’ll also be supporting Lifeline Puppy Rescue.

Instinct will be available as an ebook and a paperback. Paperbacks are not eligible for pre-order but will be available March 7th!

For just 8 days, from June 27th through July 3rd, the e-book version of Isolate will be on sale for the fantastic low price of $2.99. The low price will be effective across all retailers.
