My S&S Story The Dark Priestdom is in the latest issue of Savage Realms Monthly

I am pleased my 10,000 word sword and sorcery story The Dark Priestdom is available now in the latest issue of Savage Realms Monthly (issue No 19, March 2023). 

This story features two ongoing characters: Nadrain the Storyteller and Welgar the Northerner.

Nadrain first appeared in Summer of Sci-Fi & Fantasy, edited by Dustin Bilyk in 2022 in The Storyteller of Koss

Welgar's first appearance is as one of the two main characters in Ossani the Healer and the Beautiful Homunculus, which is still out awaiting acceptance for publication. There is also a sequel to The Dark Priestdom. Welgar the Cursed will be published this May in Swords & Heroes, edited by Lyndon Perry.  

A fourth Welgar story, Mask of a Mad God, is currently out with a potential publisher. More about this and Ossani the Healer and the Beautiful Homunculus when either or both are accepted for publication.

My third ongoing character is Ossani the Healer, who made his first appearance in The Storyteller of Koss. Besides  Ossani the Healer and the Beautiful Homunculus, he is the main character in Ossani's Slaves, which is another recent tale still out awaiting acceptance for publication. 

More stories of all three characters and their occasional crossovers are planned for the future.
