First Mage On The Moon by Cameron Johnston. Against a twilight blue background, a rusty magical rocketship readies for launch, with engineering diagrams off to the side.
Happy Launch Day to me!
First Mage On The Moon is out today.

Happy publication day to me!
With Wolfskin's release, the Common Saga, a project I started writing when I was 21 years old, is complete and out in the world forever.
I hope you enjoy my savage little world. And please share far and wide.

“I write stories I want to read.”
It sounds simple, but it’s one of the strongest predictors of long-term output.
D.B. Rook’s work blends genres:
Fantasy, western, steampunk, horror.
Full interview with @dbrook.bsky.social:
Great talk! Too short!
A new story in the Wayward World mythos appears! @dbrook.bsky.social

The Beardsmen had an awesome chat with Aussie sci-fi / space punk author Jeremy Szal @jeremyszal.bsky.social
Check it out via the link below and grab Wolfskin, the concluding instalment in his The Common trilogy- out 26th March
Do you like:
The Expanse
Aliens
Firefly
Event Horizon
Space marines
Fast paced action and well written characters?
Then I’d recommend grabbing The Wrecking Squad by @nicksnapeauthor.bsky.social
I’ve just finished this awesome book and can’t wait to read the rest of the series
A multi-book epic taking place across Halandor (same world as V&V, diff continent), featuring crime families, ranchers, railroads, airships, hive-mind goblins, world-ending pig people and the giant hunters who fight them.
It threatens to be more complex than V&V, which I swore I'd never do again 😭
Join the Beardsmen as they venture into dark space with @jeremyszal.bsky.social This Saturday at 9pm (GMT)
with @davidtlist.bsky.social @charliecav.bsky.social and @tombookbeard.bsky.social

We've already revealed our Friday lineup for the Big Indie Weekend this month, now it's time to announce the lineup for Saturday 21st Feb, featuring:
"...magnificently unique world-building, seamless prose, and deeply flawed characters..."
Usman Zunnoor has reviewed V&V over at SFF Insiders and it is so flattering I couldn't help but to share it everywhere.
Go read it!

We're happy to announce The Big Indie Weekend is back! Round 2 starts February 20th. Featuring 40+ indie authors, hosts and creatives. We're not revealing too much just yet, but here's a sneak peek of who's involved. It's going to be epic! #IndieAuthors #IndieBooks #WritingCommunity #AuthorEvents
Any RPG that has the tag line "Unlubed singularity” shouldn’t be missed!

Agreed. There are a ton of very old games I'd love to play again, particularly JRPGs, but no time. Luckily, it suffices for me to watch a vid of someone else playing them while I do something else (cook, eat, workout, etc)
The Beardy Takeover: Episode One will be going live on 25th January at 9pm (UK) , 4pm (EST) and 8am (26th in Aus). Join the Beardsmen along with the incredible @jannywurts.bsky.social, the epic @jcmberne.bsky.social and @hollytinsl3y.bsky.social, who somehow got herself invited. See you there!
Now that sounds like a good day ⚔️ 🛋️ 🖊️
I think you should try them at the same time. Except it might get confusing if you arrive at the chapters that take place in Vim, where Vim's Vanguard resides! There's a reason they say don't cross the Vanguards 🛑
Something beardy this way comes. We're so excited for the official start of our cross-channel collaboration with The Four Beardsmen of the Bookpocalypse. The Beardy Takeover, episode one lands on Spotlight's YouTube 25th January. #IndieAuthors #IndieBooks #RPG #BookSky
Something new is brewing with the Four Beardsmen of the Bookpocalypse and the awesome crew at Spotlight Indie
We have something very special on 25th Jan to kick things off at 9pm (UK) , 4pm (EST) and 8am (26th in Aus)

Also, any reviewers out there, I have a number of freebie codes, get in touch if you'd like one in exchange for your thoughts!
Lee is an amazing editor who worked on V&V, and gods-willing will do the same for V&V2 later this year!
