Bard & Barbarian

Narrated Edition. Bard and Barbarian has been posting slow and steady over on my Patreon account. Reading along is great, but supporters on some tiers can now listen along. The story is being narrated by Travis Baldree. Ch71, “Newel Post” just went live for those in qualifying tiers. AND Ch67, “Battle Song” has unlocked for the Twinkle and Sparkle tiers.

I’ve changed to Thursdays for audio posts. SO! New narrated chapters will (usually) arrive every other Thursday, which means … there’s always something more to look forward to! Learn more about my Patreon here >>

Bookends by Kristelle Studio

A while back, I was contacted by an overseas artist who wanted to create something special for the Amaranthine Saga. Bookends, sure. But also these bookshelf windows, which include three-dimensional acrylic characters. We chatted about design elements and appropriate imagery.

Ginkgo leaves and forget-me-nots are seen throughout the series. My set of bookends arrived this week!

Lunar New Year

January’s Mailing. I’m in the middle of prepping my monthly mailing for patrons. The Year of the Snake is oncoming, and as per tradition, I’m sending out red envelopes and lucky coins.

My stamps are on pre-order from the USPS, and I’m working on inscriptions. If you want to get in on this mailing, join the ranks of my supporters. You’ll need to be at least Twinkle Tier, which also gives you access to fun stuff like two ongoing serials: Bard & Barbarian and Kimiko and the Cycle of Moons. And all sorts of teasers for my new series, which begins with Bk1: Folk-Spelled.

March 11, 2025

New Release Date. I’m doing my best to coordinate all the pieces & parts of publishing Folk-Spelled. In order to have the print, digital, and audio editions releasing at the same time, I’m nudging the release date into March. If you want early looks and behind-the-scenes details, come on over to Patreon. There are free memberships & gift memberships, which opens up new possibilities.

Folk-Spelled (Immortal Holmes, No.1)
Release Date: March 11, 2025
