DERELICT Episode One Premiere!
For more than a year, I’ve had a story idea in my head that harkens back to my love of 80’s science-fiction movies (ALIEN, ALIENS, THE TERMINATOR, THE ABYSS, THE THING), all of which were (and still are) major creative inspirations for me. The story became DERELICT, which followed a “Dirty Dozen” style group of scientists and engineers — all people at the end of their […]
Jean Cocteau Cinema Interview
Head over to Black Gate Magazine to watch me read and talk about The Razor, my prison planet adventure from Tor Books. The event was hosted by Emily Mah at George R. R.

We’ll go with that. Either way, check out Travis’s awesome syfy […]

Announcing The Razor
A round about way of announcing what you probably already guessed…my new novel The Razor is finally coming out, and it will be published by Tor books in November. Help me celebrate something I never thought I’d see: a book with my name on it and that famous triangular logo at the bottom.
James Horner and the Giant Spring
I’m listening to my (sadly) out of print Vinyl edition of James Horner’s awesome score to BATTLE BEYOND THE STARS, not only my favorite Roger Corman movie (a tough call to make, it’s like picking your favorite Robert E. Howard short, but come on: it’s a remake of THE MAGNIFICIENT SEVEN in space, itself a remake of SEVEN SAMURAI in the […]
