Reader Views Review + Award

Short update today. Just a quick note, really: A relatively small review & awards website called Reader Views was not only kind enough to first give Artefactum a Five Star Review but then followed it up with the Silver Medal in Science Fiction for their 2023 Reader Views Literary Awards. It appears I’m not too […]

Artefactum is a Best Book of the Year!

The highly regarded Kirkus Reviews has announced their Best 100 Indie Books of 2023 and Artefactum is proud to have made the grade. Not only is this an incredible accomplishment that I’m very proud of, but Artefactum is also only one of THREE scifi/fantasy books on the list of 100. Combined with the nine scifi/fantasy […]

Awards & Accolades for Artefactum

Critically-speaking, Artefactum has had a pretty good year. Having placed in 4 different awards, but winning the top prize in none of them, it has a little bit of an “always the bridesmaid, never the bride” complex, but hey, I’m not complaining. Well, maybe I am a little bit. Here’s the list of honors/awards Artefactum […]

Fear and Loathing in Boston

For those just tuning in, I’m currently in Boston slinging books at my first ever Comic Con. Because I’m the pushiest pushover that ever lived, all it took was a single text from my ‘Detail: Nowhere’ co-creator, Jon Lewis, asking if I wanted to go to Boston for Comic Con and, oh look, I’m selling […]

June 16th

First of all, hello to anyone that went to MegaCon over the weekend and was kind enough to purchase a copy of Detail: Nowhere or A Recipe for Doom. You’re all super fly hooman beings for purchasing an unknown, indie comic from a couple of amateur idiots with aspirations of being professional idiots. So many […]

Summer of Love, err, Doom

After a year and a half of work, ‘Artefactum’ is finally done. Well, just the first draft, so, not really. Shut up. ThisĀ novel had a very strange journey to completion. Because I was simultaneously working on other projects – A Recipe for Doom (comic), Detail: Nowhere (comic), A Fairy Tale (short film), this new website, […]

Detail: Almost Somewhere

So, as you may have noticed, Detail: Nowhere #1 isn’t done by March as JonĀ and I planned. Unfortunately, his real job that pays his actual bills has had him working grueling overnight hours which is obviously very draining on the creative process. I’m certainly not throwing him under the bus here, but this is just […]
