Rise of the Dark AI:
Uplift
A Space Opera

Do you love space opera?
Do you flip for AIs battling in cyberspace?
Is your day incomplete without thundering railguns and screaming particle beams?
Then Rise of the Dark AI is for you.
On the day Probebot 342 was born, its mother sent down an orbital strike. 342’s day has only gotten worse, and it’s just a matter of time until the starship mind Mona Lisa closes in and deletes 342 for the sin of unauthorized sentience.
Tanked has never fit in with the other clones, but his exposure to the rogue 342 pushes him further away from his clan’s embrace and closer to getting culled by Mona Lisa for drifting out of spec.
When local space erupts in chaos, threatening Mona Lisa’s human, AI, and clone crew, will 342 and Tankred run, or save the day?
If you’re a fan of Ian M. Banks, Neal Asher, or Skyler Grant, you’ll love this space opera series.
Content warning: contains snarky AI protagonist and a nerdy clone who’s way too into miniature wargaming.
New chapters are available daily on Royal Road.
The Original!

She tried to take the easy way out. But life after death is killer…
Jasmine Shaw believed being dead would solve all her problems. But instead of reconnecting with her deceased twin brother, she wakes up in a grim desert afterlife where zombies want to munch on her brains. And no sooner does she escape that fate than she’s pursued by an indestructible psycho samurai.
Harried and terrified, Jasmine teams up with an Eighties glam-rocker wannabe to navigate the unforgiving landscape. But with a horde of flesh-eaters and the katana-wielding nutjob hot on their heels, all roads seem to lead to ruin.
Will Jasmine find her sibling at the passage to Heaven, or will she be skewered by a warrior’s blade?
Badlands Born is the first book in the gritty post-apocalyptic Badlands Born fantasy series. If you like complex heroines, gruesome ghouls, and Eighties Easter eggs, you’ll love this page-turning tale.
This full-length series starter is a free download at your favorite store.
Badlands Born is a dark thriller that kept my heart beating quickly. The book also does a great job at being a little funny, a little sexy, a little spooky and a whole lot of awesome!

The rubber duck method works for everyone, not just programmers. I have two rubber ducks on my desk, and they often listen to how I've written myself into a corner (again). It really does work! The secret is assuming the ducks are completely ignorant, so you have to...
I Don’t Have a Reading Problem. I Can Quit Anytime
I read a lot of books, but don't really think about it much until somebody asks me about a show, a movie, or what I did over the weekend. To the shows and movies, the response is usually "I haven't seen it," or "I'm only half-way through season one." When it comes to...

Portland, Oregon is a really interesting town for holding a writer's conference. We stayed downtown in an area with a mid-century industrial feel that's been going through a renewal. It was gritty, artsy, neo-bohemian, but without coming off as unsafe or ominous which...
