I have a post up today at MagicalWords.net. It’s called “My New Old Book,” and it’s about the twisted, meandering history of Spell Blind, book I of the Case Files of Justis Fearsson, the new novel I have coming out in January from Baen Books. I guess you could say that this post marks the beginning of the Winter 2014-15 Spell Blind Blog Tour, but since I don’t really know what kind of blog tour I’ll be doing for this release, that might be a bit premature.
Still, it’s a fun post. Spell Blind has been through several iterations, it has been rewritten and torn down to its component parts and rewritten again. Its impending publication is a case study in perseverance and authorial stubbornness. So if that sort of thing interests you, you should check it out.

[Looking around.] Yeah, the place is starting to look good. The site is coming together. We’ve got some content up, there’s information about all of my books, and we’ve even posted sample chapters from much of my backlist as well as from SPELL BLIND, the first novel in the Case Files of Justis Fearsson, the new urban fantasy series I’m writing for Baen. SPELL BLIND comes out on January 6
On December 15, a short story set in the Fearsson universe will be published at the Baen website. The story is called “Long Nights Moon,” and it pre-dates the events chronicled in the first book. So you can read it without fear of encountering spoilers. I hope you’ll check it out — I like the story a lot.
Not much else to report. I wish all of you a happy Thanksgiving, and I look forward to seeing you back here soon.
