Calling the American church out of the shallows and into the deeper waters of the faith
So, in a few weeks I’ll be in Baltimore, legendary birthplace of …. me. As always, when I visit I like to have a small signing at the church I attended when I lived in Baltimore as a kid. Since I went to Australia with my family during June last year, I didn’t go east … Read More “Baltimore Signing” »
As the saga of “The Binding of the Blade” wraps up, all roads lead to the Mountain. I have always loved the imagery associated with the holy mountain in Isaiah, and so creating a world where the central geographic feature was “the Holy Mountain” was a lot of fun. For four books the action has … Read More “All Roads Lead to the Mountain” »
According to an email I received within the last hour, All My Holy Mountain is supposed to arrive at P&R from the printer by 6/10, which means on or about that date, P&R will start filling orders. If you’ve ordered directly from them, then the book shoud be sent directly to you. If you ordered … Read More “AMHM Update” »

In … Read More “Authors & Covers” »
For those of you who occasionally drop by the BOTB website, you already know this, but my publisher, P&R, has announced that the revised release date for All My Holy Mountain is June 1st. Hopefully, those who have been waiting so patiently (or not, I suppose) all this time, will find that it was worth … Read More “Revised Release Date” »
OK, in light of some of the comments, questions, debates at the BOTB website and more, concerning this whole “Seven Will Fall” post from yesterday, allow me to give a little bit more information. “Major Character” is a term that can be defined in various ways, so to avoid giving away more than I’d like … Read More “When Seven is Really Eleven” »
