  • Friday Night Drabble Party!

    It’s time for some more Drabble Party fun, y’all! Gotta say that I look forward to this shindig each and every week. Y’all hear me?

    Yeah, ya do.

    Hey, you know what’s cool? Seeing Fighting Iron break the top 1000 on Amazon! Yeah, baby, that is some super cool shit right there. Not familiar with Fighting Iron? Then click the pic and get to learning, pardners! Amazon calls it a Cyberpunk novel, but I call it a far-future mech western. Read the reviews and see what others are saying.

    Tsunami
    By
    Jake Bible

    The pavement was covered with them, their tiny legs and segmented bodies moving like an entomological tsunami, ready to sweep over the man and woman that ran with every ounce of energy they had.

    The sun beat down, reflecting off the scorched parking lot, nearly blinding the fleeing couple, the heat rising in waves hot enough to steal their breath.

    They had one chance. One chance. Make a break for it and hope the RV would still start. But it didn’t look like they’d ever find out.

    The tsunami broke and the couple screamed, death by mandibles their unfortunate fate.

    Cheers!

  • Writing In Suburbia #28: For Shame! FOR SHAME!

    Welcome back to more Writing In Suburbia!

    In this week’s episode I chat about the negative in-fighting within the writing community. Genre versus genre, author versus author, literary versus the world, traditionally published versus self-published!

    It’s a good episode, yo!

  • Writing In Suburbia #27: You Only Fail If You Quit

    Howdy!

    This week I answer a whole bunch of questions from a listener which ultimately leads to my thoughts on failure as a writer. I also rant about public education and how teachers get the shaft because I can’t help myself. Oh, and this week the coffee is warm! WARM!

    Enjoy!

  • New Release! Fighting Iron!

    That is correct, folks, there is a new release by yours truly (that’s me)!

    Let me introduce to you: Fighting Iron!

    ironThe Bloody Conflict is long over. The lands are now controlled by despots, crooked cattle barons, energy hoarders, and anyone with enough might to keep the local folks under control.

    For Clay MacAulay, none of that matters as he roams the land in a war machine from a time gone by. He wants nothing to do with small desert towns or brutal dictators. He only has his sights set on a new life. Unfortunately for Clay, too many ruthless people want what he has. They want the war machine he pilots. They want the battle mech that shouldn’t exist anymore.

    They want his Fighting Iron.

    But they will have to pry Clay’s cold, dead body out of that pilot’s seat before they can take it from him. And he plans on fighting them every massive mech step of the way!

    A far-future mech western, Fighting Iron is a rip-roaring scifi adventure filled with six-shooters, plasma canons, rough and rowdy saloon brawls, showdowns, corrupt landowners, and fifty foot battle machines ready to crush everything in their path!

    Get to the clicking on that pic, y’all! Time to read some badass mech fiction!

  • Writing In Suburbia #26: You Ain’t Hurtin’ Who You Think You Are

    Howdy!

    In this week’s episode I talk about how a lot of indie booksellers boycott CreateSpace because it’s an Amazon company. I voice my opinion on this subject and also rant a little about all the angry moms at Trader Joe’s today. Trust me, folks, they were angry. But mostly I talk about the boycott against CreateSpace.

    Enjoy!
