POINT OF VIEW: It’s Almost Here, and Thanks to Everyone Who Helped

Hey all, Regular readers of this space will know a) that “The River City Chronicles” finally releases in book form on Wednesday, and b) that GDPR took a big chunk out of my hide this month. So… I am kinda freaked out about the whole release thing. LOL… but it will get better. In two days, I will have released my first self published book, and it’s a beautiful thing. I set up a tour (thankfully before I got mired in GDPR) and so many friends came to my aid to help me get the word out on the first … Read more

POINT OF VIEW: At the Top of the Mountain

Mountaintop - Point of View

Hey all, Okay, I’m almost there. Last night at about ten minutes to ten, I typed the final words of the climactic chapter in “Ithani,” the last book in the Oberon Cycle trilogy. There’s still a bit of wrap-up to do – what I euphemistically call the “return to the Shire” part of the book, where everything else is put in good order. But the hardest part is over. Most of the loose ends are wrapped up, and I’m about to send the novel off to Beta this week. Logically, I know it’s a great thing. I’ve been working toward … Read more

Point of View: Exclusive Scene from Ithani

Morgan

Hey all… I’m rounding the bend on Ithani and heading for the finish line. This is one of the most difficult books I’ve written yet, but when it all comes together, I think it’s gonna be awesome. 🙂 I thought I’d shake things up a bit and share an advance scene for all the folks out there who love Morgan. Enjoy! Morgan watched the man go. The city below was in ruins, but it would rise again, given time. He was an agent of the Ithani, but for some reason, he felt a bond with these humans—lander and skythane both. … Read more

Rainbow Snippet – Ithani

Ithani

This is from Chapter 18 of Ithani, and is freshly written. 🙂 Wait! We have no time. We have time for this. He was inside Jameson this time, connected to him in a primal way. They moved as one, passion rising as they passed through one another, connected in the dreamtime down to the last fiber of their beings. They rose on the tide of climax, fixed on one another, and it was as good—no, better—than sex had ever been in the flesh. As he reached the height, Xander moaned, and Jameson matched him, their voices rising together in a … Read more

New Amazing Review for “Lander”

Lander Cover

I just got the most fricking amazing review for “Lander” from Amy Leibowitz Mitchell:   “All in all, this was a fantastic read. I’m definitely going to pick up the first book before the third one is out so I can have everything sorted about the plot. I can’t wait to see where this goes next time. For gender equality, excellent world-building, pacing, and plot, and a fantastic sequel that can be read on its own, this gets 10/10 fountain pens.”   OMG. 🙂   http://amleibowitz.com/2018/02/21/review-lander-by-j-scott-coatsworth/   Have you gotten your copy yet?
