‘The Best of the Planetary Anthology Series’ is Now Live!
As most of you know, Tuscany Bay's Planetary Anthology series is now no more, save in audiobook form. However, Mr. John M.

Coming Soon: ‘A Gentleman Instructed’
Very excited to finally announce my next publication: a very different kind of project than any I've done before, and one that I've been working on again and off again for a year or more (I once thought it would be ready in April, which is either a testament to hope or an indictment of … Continue reading Coming Soon: ‘A Gentleman Instructed’
