If You Got Your Kindle Daily Deal Email This Morning…
…then you already saw THIS: Both The Rise of Renegade X and The Trials of Renegade XÂ are the Kindle Daily Deals for the Sci-fi and Fantasy category, which is majorly cool. Â I’d gotten an email from Amazon back in December saying it was a possibility–I had to agree to being included in the promotion if I got chosen–but I didn’t really think it was going to happen. Â Then yesterday I found out that they were going to be part of the Daily Deal today. Â Which was pretty amazing.

The Trials of Renegade X is out!
Okay, so, The Trials of Renegade X wasn’t supposed to come out until the 26th, but it’s actually out right now. The hardback edition I created through Lightning Source appeared on Amazon and Barnes and Noble this weekend. Â Oops. Â And I think Goodreads has been emailing people that the book is out. Â So I’ve been working on getting the other editions up and running. Which means that you can now get the book. Â Like, right now. Â Here’s a breakdown: The hardback books are $19.99. Â They’re available through Amazon or Barnes and Noble. Â They should be available through other outlets soon, including Book Depository. The ebook is $4.99 and available through…

Cover Reveal – The Trials of Renegade X!
I have, of course, been dying to show you guys this for a while now, and today is the day! This is the ebook cover for Trials, made by Raul Allen, who was also the amazing artist behind the first cover. The print books will feature the full wraparound, like the first one had, with the city continuing off to the left. And here’s blurb again: Can a half villain ever be a full hero? Damien Locke didn’t choose for his supervillain mom to disown him — just because he sort of defied her and ruined her evil plans to take over Golden City — and he didn’t choose for…

Many Cool Announcements
So many announcements, in fact, that I can make a BULLETED LIST. The kickstarter for The Trials of Renegade X was a rousing success! Â It ended at 125%, which is pretty amazing. Â Especially since there was a time, for about an hour or so after I first launched it (and, well, all the months leading up to it), where I was pretty sure it was going to finish at zero percent. Â Or maybe more realistically like one percent. Â (Okay, okay, five percent.) Â BUT my doubts were foiled again and everything is coming up awesome. If you missed out on the kickstarter, don’t worry! Â Trials now has a release date and…

Renegade X Sequel = DONE!
Wow, it’s been a while since I posted (guess I was in the writer cave longer than I thought).  I looked at my last post, where I had 19,000 words in the sequel. HA.  Now I have 115,000 and it’s DONE!  That’s right–this book is going to exist.  It’s going to come out this September.  And it’s going to be really freaking awesome (but I think you guys knew that part already).  And if you’re wondering what 115,000 words actually means, I’ll tell you that the first one was 85,000 words, making this a much bigger book.  I would estimate that gives you guys another 100 pages to read. Of sex…

The Trials of Renegade X – The Blurb!
Newsletter subscribers got a sneak peek at this last week, and now, as promised, I am proud to present the description for The Trials of Renegade X:  Can a half villain ever be a full hero? Damien Locke didn’t choose for his supervillain mom to disown him—just because he sort of defied her and ruined her evil plans to take over Golden City—and he didn’t choose for his superpower to be flying, a superhero ability that involves his least favorite thing: heights. But now that he’s living with his dad’s superhero family and enrolling at Heroesworth Academy, he’s ready to embrace his new life, get his H, and finally belong…
