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.

I expect Unagicon to pull a Kamehacon.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa? 😛
A-ha! My prediction was wrong!
First thought… what new farkery does this conceal?
SPOILERS because I pay attention to con news

Having a poorly written guest contract certainly fits in with what we know about Unagi Con.
Know it’s pedantic of me, but are we sure Terrance is a Nazi? Certainly he’s a misogynistic douchebag of an asshole, full of himself enough to dress like a Nazi in public… which is certainly bad enough, and very indicitive of being a Nazi.
I guess my mental picture puts ‘Nazi’ as ‘racist and/or anti-semitic’, and certainly Terrance has done terrible things… but I fail to recall any that were racist or anti-semitic.
I’m still perfectly willing to punch him in the face should we ever meet.
Look, I — the author with a degree in political science — wouldn’t necessarily call Terrence a Nazi based on what Megan’s seen of him. He might be, but we haven’t seen enough.
Megan, who did not study political science (and who grew up in a small town I literally based off a real place in Indiana where I first saw someone with a swastika tattoo on his neck), is probably going to call him a Nazi.
Perfectly fair. If he hasn’t technically crossed the line into fitting the formal definition of a Nazi, he’s come close enough.
