In celebration of the mass market release of God’s War in the UK (my first mass market release!), I’ll be visiting a bunch of blog-dens, releasing a new Nyx short story (set during the 7 year gap between chapters 4 and 5 of God’s War), swinging by Reddit, and even getting out of the house for my lone con this year.
If you’re in the UK or have friends in the UK, now, my friends, is time to purchase forty copies of God’s War. If you’re in the US and haven’t read it yet, well, no excuses. It’s 2014!
If you’re inclined to keep pace with this sort of thing, here’s where all the juicy new posts and other goodies will be this month. Will be teasing topics next week. Suffice to say I’ll be covering a lot of ground related to writing, women, war, worldbuilding and other fun things that start with “W”, as well as other letters of the alphabet:

As ever, thanks to folks for supporting these books. Future work in this biz is often dependent on how well prior work does, so thanks to everyone for passing this one along to friends and family. It means a lot.
