Published by my company, Energion Publications, this book provides a broad, dramatic sweep of history driven by imagination and spiritual commitment. The YouTube video below is a video reading by the author. You can also read his next novel, The Gathering of the Eternal Five, which we are serializing on the Nurturing Creativity blog. Just…
As editor and publisher at Energion Publications, I have the privilege of working with many authors. Kimberly Gordon has written a number of novels, three of which are published by Energion. Here’s the video of my interview with her. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tv2D3Ehmf4Y Buy Now Buy Now Buy Now
I have reduced the price of the Kindle edition of Tales from Jevlir: Oddballs [publisher catalog page] to $0.99 from $2.99. Now such a price reduction could look desperate as a result of poor sales. Well, it’s not desperate, but it is due to poor sales. I didn’t expect too much, considering that most of…
[caption id="" align="alignleft" width="183" caption="Image via Wikipedia"][/caption] In my post Creativity for the Fun of It, I maintained that it’s fine for Christians to write and publish works that are just for fun, and that God’s glory shines through such things because God is the creator of everything, not just some limited subset that we…

Dr. Platypus has been posting some kind of fiction series for a few weeks. I just found it with #10. You need to start with #1. I won’t give away much more other than that languages do get involved, of which I recognized part, but not all, and not specifically. Enjoy!
I found this good suggestion at Fresh Fiction the other day. Now I’m not suggesting that you go out and do the opposite of whatever you’re doing, but I have found over the last couple of years that many of my own problems result from continuing to do the same thing even when it doesn’t…
At first I was thinking I shouldn’t get involved here, because the first article I read by Monica Valentinelli was title What is the Definition of a Legitimate Publisher?. Good topic, no? But elsewhere I’m a publisher, though not of fiction, struggling sometimes with that legitimacy issue as I try to grow. Nonetheless, the article…
Cory Doctorow has a column in the Guardian, which I unsurprisingly found via his blog. Now I believe that copyright holders have the right to protect their property. They even have the right to be stupid, as many of them are when they go after marginal fair use issues. If it’s marginal on fair use,…
