Dark Age Fiction: Jeff Blackmer's Blog

On August 15, 2014, Gears of Uriel was published by Thorstruck Press. I received my copies of the book in the mail a couple of days earlier. This is a dream come true, one I’ve been looking forward to for many years!

Thorstruck Press asked me to narrate the prologue from Gears of Uriel. It’s available to listen to on their site. Click here!

I recently had the privilege of doing an author’s interview with the site Beauty in Ruins. It was a fantastic experience and a great place to find science fiction, fantasy and horror!

I also have a new Facebook banner from Thorstruck Press. I love it!

Well, after having published two novels on Amazon, I have finally signed with Thorstruck Press!

Ten years ago, going through a traditional publisher was the only way to get published. But in the Information age, first music went digital and then books.One must adapt or fall hopelessly behind. There have been casualties along the way; Border Books went under and there are signs that Barnes and Noble has been struggling a bit as of late. The large publishers have had to become more nimble; the old days of a book taking 1-2 years to get published don’t work so well these days.

For me, Thorstruck Press was a good choice. They understand what publishing has become, a hybrid of titles people want on both their ebook readers and their bookshelves. And so, my next book, Gears of Uriel, will be published soon by Thorstruck.

It’s the first of a trilogy. The next one is called Tyrian and its already 30,000 words along. The future looks exciting!
