So this has been probably one of my most productive years creatively in a long time. Back in January I published my first novel, The Witch and the Rose, and followed it up in June with a sequel, Bloody Damn Rite. Well, today I'm excited to officially announce the third book in the series, Shadowcasting, will be available on 12/15/2024! Like the earlier books in the series, you can pre-order the book on Kindle immediately, and it will arrive on your device December 15th ready to go.
Honestly, I'm super excited about this one. It's probably my favorite book in the series, and I can't wait for you guys to get your hands on it. Here's the back of cover synopsis:
Winter has clawed its way into the heart of Parrish Mills, and something far darker may have come with it. When Mia Graves, a witch with a habit of getting into trouble, and her best friend Riley Whittaker stumble across a grisly scene along the Wabash River, they find it reeks of dark, forbidden magic and has left at least one charred body in its wake.
With the help of young Bobbi Crawford, the further Mia and Riley dig into the events that took place on that cold Indiana morning, the more dire their circumstances reveal themselves to be. Between a stolen grimoire and a group of young witches who may not know how dangerous their actions are, shadows loom in the dark of winter.
And one of those shadows may be more dangerous than anyone imagined.
(Also, and this is unrelated, the non-Kindle, DRM free ePub version of Bloody Damn Rite is now available in my Patreon store too)
So, it looks like Jim is actually a reasonable person, barring his obsession with tedious scheduling. I’m looking forward to seeing how this plays out. Most likely with Garner getting tossed out on his ass I’m guessing. Wonder what his beef with Bork Con is…
This storyline has my “intergroup politics” senses tingling.
Garner wouldn’t pick this fight and be open about it unless he’s really secure or really stupid. Garner doesn’t seem stupid to me, but too smart for his own good if anything.
So what’s Garner’s game then? Lynn is a means to an end as was, I suspect, everything he said to Lynn.
I suspect the poor thing actually believes there is Power in being the head of the committee, plans on making a move and is trying to get rid of possible, competent, competition. If he’s completely out of luck he will succeed and his new domain will collapse around him.
“The fact that we seriously considered eliminating the website, and kept it largely due to technicalities proves the con needs you!”
Reputation from “Glitter Indicident”. Hoo boy. 🙂
I think that’s actually supposed to be ‘repercussions’ just misspelled, which may be worse.
Which reminds me…
Hey, Trae, any chance of seeing unobstructed closeups of the whiteboards?
Once the move is complete, of course.
That sounds like a great thing to add as bonus material in the books or to start releasing to Patreon subscribers 😛
‘Mouse Whispering’… I have concerns…
Hmm – I’m smelling the con running equivalent of the coup de etat attempt. All hail El Garnerisimo? Mind you, the fact that the con has been running this long will likely mean that Garner will be in for a surprise or 4. No one stays in the position Jim is in – even in his passive fashion – even hail-marying last minute clusterfark cons together – without some major social kung fu. Sort of a “Submissive Badass” trope example. They’re creampuffs until you upset their applecart in a way that annoys them. Then they’re sort of quietly, relentlessly, and politely send your arse to the metaphorical cleaners. They ARE at home to Mr. Reasonable, and he has lent them his might 😉
Or, as usual I’m dead wrong and it’s something completely different!
