Join me December 3 for the Stateline Author Meet & Greet. This is the author fair at my local, hometown library, right here in beautiful Beloit, Wisconsin. Not only is it a great library, that day it’ll be packed with all sorts of amazing local authors, many of whom will have their books for sale there, just in time for holiday …
Join Me at Gamehole Con!
This weekend, I’m one of the guests of honor at Gamehole Con in Madison, Wisconsin. This is my last scheduled public appearance of the year, before I hunker down in my writing den for the winter. I was a guest last year too, and I had an absolutely wonderful time at the show. If you’re a gamer and you can make …
Dungeonology Is Here!
My latest book, Dungeonology, is here! While it was originally slated to be released on November 8 in both the US and the UK, the American publisher (Candlewick Press) decided to bump up the release date to October 21. That was, um, ten days ago, and apparently I was too busy to notice. Anyhow, it’s already sold out at Amazon (woot!). They …
Blood Bowl Novels Back in Gorgeous Boxed Set
Yesterday, Games Workshop’s books division–the Black Library–announced that it’s bringing my Blood Bowl novels back into print in an exclusive, limited-edition boxed set. For those who don’t know, Blood Bowl is GW’s game of fantasy football, which is slated for the release of a brand-new edition soon. In this case, the “fantasy” comes from playing the game not with pro athletes but …
Going to Mount Horeb!
This coming Monday, October 10, starting at 6:30 PM, I’m going to be visiting the Mount Horeb Public Library in Mount Horeb, Wisconsin. I’ll be talking about my Captain America book, but I’ll also have a preview copy of my upcoming Dungeonology with me to show around as well. The event is listed “for teens, ages 12 and up.” (But really, aren’t all …
Halo: Fractures Is Here!
Halo: Fractures, a new anthology of stories set in the universe of the best-selling video game franchise, debuts today. I have the lead story in it, a little tale called “Lessons Learned.” It features a couple of Spartan-IIIs named Tom and Lucy–who have been part of a number of other stories in the past–and it starts out spinning off from one of …
About Forward/Story (a.k.a. How I Spent My Costa Rica Vacation)
I’ve had one hell of a great summer. I just spent four weeks on the road, including Comic-Con, a week at our family cabin, Gen Con (my favorite professional event of the year) and Forbeck-O-Rama (a family reunion, my favorite personal event of the year). Soon the kids will be back in school, and we’ll all settle back into that post-summer groove, but before that …
My Gen Con 2016 Schedule
There’s one show I never miss: Gen Con. It’s the largest tabletop gaming convention in the world, and it just gets better every year. I absolutely love the show and the people who run it, from my wonderful pals Peter Adkison and Adrian Swartout all the way down to the newest volunteers. If you enjoy games, there is no better …
My Comic-Con 2016 Schedule
DK is bringing me out to Comic-Con again this year, to sign copies of my Captain America book. I always have a wonderful time at this massive show. For the signings in the DK booth, I understand they’ll have free Captain America posters to hand out, but I’m always happy to sign anything I’ve worked on as well. I’ll also …
Join Me at Nexus Game Fair!
This weekend, I’ll be a special guest at Nexus Game Fair at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In many ways this is a return to my old stomping grounds, since that’s the same hotel I stayed at for many years back in the days when Gen Con was in Milwaukee. This makes four weekends in a row that I’ve been …
