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.

The last time Noble got a line was in 2016. It was ‘Jesus.’
Her money, her idea
No, it is her money, she should not be running the con, way too many chances of conflicts of interest.
Looks at *name of con redacted*.
That can go both ways though. No skin in the game sometimes amounts to “my way even when it makes no sense economically.”
…Well who else? Punch all the Nazis, no restraint. Only legal ramifications.
No, an anti-hate speech policy that is actually enforced by the con director. And a couple of big dudes on staff who just happen to be the ones called on to escort anyone off the premises who becomes an issue. Terrence would have been far less likely to object if the anime nerd staffer talking to him was a 300 lb construction worker for his day job.
Lynn is the obvious choice, but likely should be some sort of Due Process. May want to check with the BorkCon charter or whatever paperwork there is. Likely something as simple as “All in favor of Lynn being in charge? All opposed? Motion passes.”
So I decided not to spend a couple strips explaining this, and I’ll toss in some dialogue to clarify later, but this is all being done within the rules of the org. This meeting has a quorum and two board members present (Ruth as Treasurer and Lynn as Secretary)
Works for me.
