Today I’m thrilled to be able to take my eight from the just-released anthology, Thunder in the Battlefield (vol. 2, Sorcery). My story, The Ruins of St. Louis, combines elements of post-apocalyptic fiction, magic, adventure, a quest, a prophecy, and everything else that makes sword and sorcery kick-butt. This eight follows notorious smuggler/pirate, thief, fighter, … More WeWriWa: The Ruins of St. Louis (Thunder on the Battlefield: Sorcery)

Today, my brothers and sisters, is a day meant for jubilation.

So remember that secret project I’ve been alluding to?

Thoughts Behind The Other Man

July 13, 2013

Strangely, I never set out to be particularly cynical when writing The Other Man. I believe in love and relationships, although I’ll admit I also believe that the real-world version is often more work and very different than what we read or see in movies. I’m the type of person who’s more inclined to not get … More Thoughts Behind The Other Man

Do you meticulously outline? Do you write depending on what calls are out there? NV: I start with making … More Author Interview: Nick Valentino
