WHAT'S NEW?
New Works to be Published!
I should have several new pieces of work published shortly;

Published Works
Pseudopod published my short story "Grave of Ships" on March 13th 2009 as 133 pod-cast with a dramatic reading by Ian Stuart. The story is read to perfection and I encourage people to follow the link, find story 133 "Grave of Ships" and give it a read!
Oh and please feed the pod if you liked it! They gave me a chance and with your donations they'll give others the same.
Absent Willow Review published a horror tale of mine, "Robert M. Munroe" June 16th. I am delighted.
published "King and Country", a WWI alternate-history story, July 19th. Give them a read.
Heroic Fantasy Quarterly published a fantasy tale of mine, "The Man of Moldania" July 1st in their frist issue! I am honored. The editors were fantastic to work with. The story involves an old, worn-out dragonslayer just looking for work in a world rather devoid of dragons. Or so he thinks.
Dark Recesses published "The Dead House" August 30th 2009. These guys have some great artwork on their website, give them a look. They also illustrated the story! Wow! The story involves a particularly strange house and the neighbor who spys on it.
Warhammer Novels and Stories
One of my goals in life is to be published. Who doesn't fancy themselves an author? I am a self-admitted amateur, but endeavor to improve and become marketable.
The Warhammer fiction is free. Consider it a writing sample.
Fencing
I've been engaged in a form of Historic Fencing for over fifteen years, learn more by following the link.

Aspiring author! The rest I shall leave cloaked in mystery in the false hopes it will inspire respect and fear with a dash of awe.

I have a wife
I have a job
I have a Masters Degree in Military Studies: Land Warfare
