TL:DR


What’s New in FabianSpace

I haven't done a lot with my comedy lately, after the couple of local venues dried up and my comedy buddy started going to Orlando. And, I must admit, open mics in bars do not appeal to me. But last weekend, I was thinking that if I'm really meant to do this, I needed to start asking around.


When I took the class, some of my parish friends said I should ask about speaking at the woman's group that meets monthly. This weekend, Father's homily was on patience and perseverance. Thus, I saw the organizer at coffee-and-donuts, so I took the plunge and asked.


"This must be God's timing!" she said. "How would you like to MC a fashion show next week?"


Sometimes, God's timing involves calendars. This time, a stopwatch.


Pray for me guys. This will be awesome or a disaster.


Next Worldbuilding Workshop Aug 28, 8 pm Eastern

I had a terrific time presenting Worldbuilding Basics last month. Thanks to those who attended! This month, I’m teaching 6 ways to build your worlds. We’ll look at some easy ways that worlds can be developed and cover the basics for presenting a world. This is a one-hour webinar with questions and a handout. $20. (If you are a member of the CWG, email me for the coupon code.)

How to Publish on Amazon – class and demo

The last couple of times I’ve published a book on Amazon, I held a webinar to show folks how it’s done. I’ve had great response and decided to formalize it into a class. I’ll cover what you need to prepare, some of the basics, and then walk you through a demo, using Idol Speculations as the guinea pig! You’ll leave with an understanding of how to publish using KDP (Amazon’s platform) and a worksheet to help you prepare.


$10 (CWG members contact me for a coupon code.)

Idol Speculations comes out Aug 29!

It’s the faceoff you never knew you wanted—Vern vs. Godzilla!


When Japanese investors want Vern as the mascot and protector of their new commercial center in Los Lagos, Vern thinks he’s got it made. Finally, the respect he deserves, a cushy job patrolling the store area and amusement park, and a new lair built into the artificial mountain!


But nothing is ever easy in Vern’s world. When an elder god that’s been hiding in the lakes of Los Lagos, grows under the inadvertent influence of Mundanes, it emerges as a monster out of a kaiju movie. Vern gets the help of mages, the national guard, and even a Mechadragon, but in the end, it’s up to Vern to save the day.


Can a dragon the tenth the size of a monster take on a god powered by cliché?


You can watch me load it live on Aug 29 in the How to Publish on Amazon class. Also, to celebrate, I’ll be giving everyone some coloring pages, courtesy of my artist friend Brent Donobo! (You don't need to do anything - just watch for the link in an upcoming newsletter!)
