Current Post On Trae’s Blog:
I'm excited to announce that Shadowcasting, book three in the Mia Graves Saga, is now out!
I could run through a brief description of the book and I give the back-of-book synopsis again (like I did when pre-orders went up), but you can go back and read that post if you want to. The short version is "how do you talk a twenty-something out of using a magical nuke, especially when you just work retail."
In all honesty, this is my favorite book in the series so far. In some ways it's very different than the two earlier books in a couple of ways, but still feels like the same series. There's not much else I can say without major spoilers, so you'll just have to trust me on that one.
Like my earlier releases, for the first three months the eBook will be available only on Kindle (and Kindle Unlimited), but you can also get the paperback a couple of ways. First off, there's always Amazon, but you can always direct order a copy if you want to avoid Bezos. Finally, you can get it through any bookseller with the ISBN 9781088207031.
So yeah, the book is here, and I'm excited that folks will get to read it finally.

Is Garner using “everyone” in a manner both analogous and opposite to “how are we doing?”
He thinks something, and because he’s clearly right, everyone else must agree with him and just not be willing to say it. Because if they don’t then he might be wrong, and that’s just inconceivable.
(also, WOW, dude is sure blaming Lynn for his own damn problems, isn’t he?)
Lynn should just walk away and tell that staff to go find a new webmaster
To paraphrase an earlier comic: “Yeah, I don’t know why you’d think that was an option.” considering who is involved here.
One tactic is to say, “Hey guys, Garner tells me that I’m annoying everybody and acting superior. I’m really sorry about that. So I’m going to resign right now so you can find a webmaster that can work with you better.”
I was going to say that Lynn’s anger management therapist earned her money only if Lynn never came looking for a fight to begin with.
But instead, I’ll recognize the obvious progress she must have made to not throttle this guy.
Hahahahahahhaha!
Oh, god, I have been in a very similar situation. A con in my area had an entire dept quit, and came to my con to recruit people as a stop gap so they could rebuild their staff. We showed up and were treated like we carried the plague. it was like, well, why did you ask us here if you didn’t actually want the help?
It’s official – Garner is a complete bag of garbage. If you have an issue with someone, you don’t forcibly drag it into public view behind their back and take steps to “get back” at them. You don’t put a business other people have worked hard for at risk. You don’t spend hours wasting other people’s time. You go and talk to the other person.
Yeah, this may be something of a hot topic for me. I find these kind of people to be some of the lowest forms of scum.
….I still kinda hoping for a Garner sized hole in the wall…
Why cause property damage when you can just replace the website with a page that say “i quit its his fault dont call me” wouldnt even need to remove the site just change all the folder names
Fight? Fight? Fight? Fight? Fight?
