Sage does strange things with all of his SageDevices. Even the SageCar runs by principles not fully understood by its creator... Or by modern science!  |

Not yet. Though a version of SageOS for smartphones will undoubtedly feature on my "To-Do" list at some point.

When SageCar is working, of course. Currently, its only succeeding in acting as an attractor for dust and other particulate-muck during periods of wintry rain and storms.
...
And just to note... I stand by the quality and reliability of all of my SageDevices. Or at least I will.
...
It's on my list too. |

That is either extremely brilliant or somewhat arrogant, foolhardy and needlessly complicated. Either way, props for trying, I couldn't do it.
Sorry for the side-chatter, Elaine. I'm not a big e-book reader, but if you wrote it, I'll read it, eventually. |

Side-chatter is no problem. 
Informal poll here. I'd be interested to hear from people who aren't e-readers but would read Honor's story in hard copy. Once the trilogy of short e-riginals is finished, I might have all three bundled into a print book.
Yes? No? Maybe? |

| YES! |
There is a rumour going around that I have found god. I think is unlikely because I have enough difficulty finding my keys, and there is empirical evidence that they exist.

Myself, the Lady K, and a number of other friends who are new readers of Honor's story all heartily proclaim... "YES!" |

I'd buy it. I'm enjoying this tale. |

Yes indeed. You are one of the few authors who can sell me a book without my having to read the jacket. Of course I always do because I'm impatient, but that's besides the point.
Are the first two chapters still available online? I couldn't find them on your site. All links brought me to chapter three.
Any chance of a preview of The Serpent's Daughter on the horizon? |

On the upper right side of the website is a Category pull-down menu. All the preview chapters, Prelude through chapter 3, can be accessed as Excerpts and Honor Among Thieves.
More news on TSD as soon as I can pass it along. |

If you're gunpowder-curious, today's Tales of Sevrin post offers a quick overview of what it is and how it was made.

Not at present, GRYPHON.
Honor Among Thieves is the first story in the Starsingers trilogy and, at 35,000 words, the shortest. While I think this length works as an ebook, it's not a length that readers are accustomed to buying. Once the entire trilogy has been e-published, it might make sense to do a printed omnibus.
It'd be nice to have hard copies for conventions and other events, and, of course, for the folks who don't use e-readers and don't like to download Smashword PDF copies to read on-screen. |

| Yay! I purchased this from Smashwords in hopes that you would receive a better cut than on Amazon. Also, I like the idea of having the DRM free version of it, which totally made it worth paying $1 more for it. |
