Okay… Here’s an Update
What am I doing? In my journal here, I’ve started posting Japan-related things that tie-in to my novels, thinking that might interest my readers. But it was nearly crickets on my UFO catcher post last week! Maybe I took a wrong turn. So this week I’m just going to give a quick update on what’s…

Notes to Myself
A note to myself from the first draft of the Headless sequel, Part 2: Sometimes I’ve got to get the story out and fill in the fights later. The blacked-out bits are to avoid spoilers. But the fights are something I do enjoy writing very much. Now I get to flesh this particular one out.…

It’s the Steps, Baby
Photo by Randall Honold on Unsplash The other evening I was a little annoyed. I had planned to clean my apartment (including the dishes), answer all my emails, balance my checkbook, finish one of the novels I’m reading, finish writing my current novel, write ten more novels, run a marathon, climb Mount Everest, be the first human on…

October Update
Photo by Andrea Boldizsar on Unsplash. I haven’t written much about the sequel to Headless here. In fact, I think the only thing I’ve mentioned is that I am writing one. I actually haven’t told ANYONE what it’s about yet. Not even my wife. Not even my brother. Both of whom I share just about everything with. I…

Got a Favorite e-Reader?
Headless is probably on it. It’s now available on just about every e-reader and most e-book platforms. Several more than it was before actually, and some I had never heard of. In publishing terminology this is called going wide. I tried going exclusive with Amazon Kindle for three months to see what all the hype was…

KDP UK
photo by Montse Monmo So far, my KDP Select experience for Headless has not been great. In fact, it hasn’t even been good. I did a Kindle Countdown Deal in the US, along with a some Facebook and Instagram advertising, and made three sales. Three. And I’m pretty certain those sales were from people I actually…

Akio’s Journal – April 13th
I found another one of Akio’s journal entries from just a few weeks before the events in Headless. It’s kind of personal, but at this point, he’s probably okay with me sharing it. Considering all he’s been through, I’m sure a little maudlin complaining about a past girlfriend is one of the least of his…

Let the Beheadings Commence
You might think this is a post about a new American policy toward immigration, but no… HEADLESS HAS AN OFFICIAL RELEASE DATE. It will be here very, very soon. Am I nervous? Hell, yes. But extremely excited too. It’s going to be released on that second most terrible day this year when the world…

Akio’s Journal ~ April 4th
Akio Tsukino at his journal. Everyone thinks I’m stupid. Maybe I am. I try to cover it up with wisecracks and goofing around. But that just makes it worse. Maybe if I was deadly serious all the time. Like Masami. Maybe if I could just focus on my work and tune everyone else out like…
