Kicking the door on 2019

Posted on December 3, 2019 by

Around the Clockwork Dragon offices, by which we mean the various nooks in which we all write, this time of year is a deep breath. We do a few shows, and one of them is big. The second half of the month, the holiday part, is typically when we chill and recharge to prepare for the next year.

ICMYI, here’s a list of everything we released in 2019:

Darkside Seattle: Hacker
Swords, Sorcery, & Self-Rescuing Damsels
Harper Revolution 2: Crawlspace
Stardrifters 1: Dragoncaller
The Greatest Sin 6: Charred Roots
War of the Rose Covens
Harper Revolution 0: Defiance
Harper Revolution 3: Backslide
Clockwork Dragon
Gothcraft 2: SPF 1066
Gothcraft 3: Midnight or Something Darker
Mina Cortez (new edition)
Elysium’s Fall 2: Dark Savior of the Dragons

Lee also tossed a bunch of short stories into the wilderness.

We’re all looking forward to exciting new projects in 2020. Our first release in January will be the next installment in Lee’s Darkside Seattle collection, Meat. We expect to see more new books in several existing series, including Stardrifters, The Greatest Sin, and Harper Revolution. At least one new series will launch next year too!

If you’d like to be one of the first to pick up a print copy of our beloved Dwago’s story, Clockwork Dragon will be at Victorian Country Christmas this weekend, 12/4-8 in Puyallup at the WA state fairgrounds. We’ll be harder to find without our signature shirts, but we’ll still have Dwago there to supervise us all.

Happy Holidays!

New Release: Clockwork Dragon

Posted on November 26, 2019 by

Dwago is a very small dragon in a very large castle.

Many moons ago, Clockwork Dragon the co-op came into existence. Jeff and Lee had the brilliant idea to write a book called Clockwork Dragon. They figured out who that dragon is and convinced a friend to design one. This is Dwago, the adorable mascot you’ve seen with us at shows.

Dwago seen here with our friend, Raven Oak

For a long time, Dwago ‘s book remained a thing we wanted to have yet couldn’t quite get done.

Until now.

dunDunDUN!!

Meet Dwago in all his whimsical, charming glory within the pages of this enchanting gothic fairy tale novella. Clockwork Dragon is now available in print and ebook.

New Release: Midnight Or Something Darker

Posted on November 14, 2019 by

The closer to the Gothcraft trilogy, which began with You’re Not a Real Goth Until You Sack Rome, is now available. Midnight or Something Darker completes the increasingly lesbian adventures of Rae Schwarz as she faces a final confrontation of both Norse-Germanic mythological curses and family baggage. Fortunately, she’s got her ljosalf-sorceress girlfriend by her side. And her gingerbread-witch BFF. And her other BFF who is not a witch at all. And then there’s her favorite gargoyle.

Sometimes the first step is admitting you have a magic ring problem.
