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.

…yea okay i quit, good luck with your S888ty trainwrek of a website
Wow…that is so freakin’ familiar!
Client gives developer/programmer the passwords to fix their problems with their software and then doesn’t give the help the authority to use them. In one word: Sheesh!
I agree…if you didn’t want to give the permission to use the passwords in order to fix the problem, then DON’T GIVE THEM OUT!!!!!!
If a client gets pissy about this, dump ’em and let them go hang
If you don’t want someone looking at the database, don’t give them the password to do so. The hoops to jump though of approval to get said passwords i can sorta understand, but only sorta.
I feel like that dude must have a day job in the public sector. Possibly on a municipal level.
“We want you to do this job.” ‘Okay, so I’ll start by….’ “Oh no no no… First, write all that down and email it to four different people who will each respond with ‘Reply all’, but never actually read the other messages in the train. Then when twelve more people have weighed in, we’ll start to think about forming a committee to begin the process of considering your proposal.”
