Hi All! While I had some challenges this week with productivity, I managed to make some progress late in the week. I had always imagined working from home would be less work, but it turns out I'm working more at home! I expect that to lessen a little as the industry I work in (public transportation) adjusts to the new reality...

Hi all. I just learned about a rule that Amazon has regarding books that are in KU. They won't allow more than 10% of that book to be anywhere else once it is published with them. This does not affect book three chapters right now since it is not yet published. So book three will go on as usual. Here is...

I truly hope this update finds you all well. The world has turned surreal. Everything from small things like not being able to buy peanut butter or chicken (or my favorite frozen burritos!) to people losing their jobs, or worse. I know you are all experiencing similar things.
I also know many people have been as distrac...

Hi all! I hope this finds you all healthy. What a crazy time in the world.
I made some progress writing this week and hope to make even more in the coming weeks. These chapters contain some of the core components of how this story blends LitRPG Magic/Cultivation. The possibilities are endless which makes it exciti...

Hi everyone! I just returned from a long drive through three states. My productivity shows it too. I had really wanted to get into the nuts and bolts of the Harvester's magic system, but that will have to wait until next week.
I hope everyone is healthy and has enough TP (people here are panic buying it).

Hello again! I finalized the cover this week for book three. I haven't landed on a title I love, but I still have time for that. I hope you like the cover as much as I do. In a way, this is your first look at book four. You'll see why at the end of this book. SO MUCH IS HAPPENING!
Anyway, let me know what you think.

Hi everyone!
Another week where life conspired against my writing. I really hope to get into a more regular process next week.
I am still figuring out how much to reveal and describe in these early chapters. They feel rougher to me than my normal output. The chapters next week will reveal something I've been wanti...

Chapter 6
They found the creature a minute later.
The beaver had dragged its body to the severed head, and then over to the hand discarded by Lylan. The beaver’s head sat a foot from the body, and its eyes tracked them as they approached. The body used its stump and hand to press its torso back together.

Chapter 5
Sift gasped in pain and stumbled backward. Lylan caught Sift and held him steady. Ruwen slid out from underneath the beaver and pushed himself up. He picked up Sift’s arm, pulled the sleeve off it, and strode toward his friend.
“Hold him still,” Ruwen said to Lylan. “I don’t know if this makes ...

Hey everyone! I plan to keep this update short as I stayed up way too late to get an extra chapter for you all to enjoy.
The Second Betrayal is doing well and it makes me very happy that the story continues to resonate with those that enjoyed the first book.
While I know how things should work, I am still fi...

Chapter 4
Ruwen hadn’t expected the combination, and he flinched as dust and small rocks struck him. His body, Fortified to Copper, resisted all the flying stones and they bounced off his skin. Lylan and Sift were not as fortunate, and Ruwen could see rocks lodged in their bodies.
“Fall back!” Ruwen yelled a...

Chapter 3
Ruwen cursed, returned the baton to his belt, and jogged with Sift up to Lylan.
“We have twenty seconds before it gets here,” Lylan said.
“And we don’t want to fight in the tunnel,” Sift said.
Ruwen sighed. “Right, let's take the fight into the cavern. Nak and I will get its atten...

“Thank you,” Juva whispered.
Ruwen stared down at the injured man, his emotions still roiling. Hamma stood, and Ruwen focused on her.
Hamma placed her hand over his heart. “That was a good choice.”
Ruwen nodded. “Time will tell.”
“We need a plan,” Sift said and then look...

Chapter 1
The screams grew louder as Ruwen made his way up the dungeon’s tunnel. As he approached the main cavern agonized moans joined the terrified sounds, and he slowed, wary of an ambush.
Ten feet into the cavern, Slib’s bodyguard, House Captian Juva, lay on the stone floor. In two pieces. He had been ripp...

Prologue
Tremine shelved the last of the days returned books and turned to leave the aisle. A small figure wrapped in a brown cloak stood at the entrance of aisle, and Tremine’s heartbeat quickened in surprise. He hadn’t heard them approach.
The cloak’s hood kept the figure’s face in shadow and they stood ...

Hi, everyone! I know what you really care about is if I'm going to release any chapters today. So, I'll start with that. Luckily for you, my wife is traveling, and so I spent Valentine's Day writing. As soon as I'm done with this post, I'll add the prologue and chapter one.
Just like book two's chapters, these are rough...

After months, everyone else will finally be able to read what you have been (hopefully) enjoying for months. Soon we start the process all over again with book three. This group is very motivating for me, and I appreciate you all so much.

Hi everyone. The ebook has been loaded up to Amazon, and I will probably release it soon. The paperback will be available either tomorrow or Tuesday, but I don't want to wait for it. The book came in at 536 pages, so it is 20% longer than book one.
I've unlocked the last chapters for Harvesters since I want it to be ava...

Hello everyone! I just posted the final chapters for book two. It is going through some final edits as I decided to foreshadow some events that will take place in books four and five.
I will open up these final chapters to Harvesters sometime this week. Before the book is available to the public.
