Memorial Day Blog Hop!

If this is your first time here, then welcome to The Sword That Nagged - which is all The Wrong Sword, its sequels, and the other stories I'm working on. Some of my biggest interests are writing (one would hope) fantasy, science fiction, comedy, history, politics, philosophy, love, death, sex, violence, poetry, wine, the human condition...

I also like contests, by the way. So here's one:

For a thousand years, Excalibur has been the sword of heroes.

Unfortunately, its new owner isn’t one.

Henry of Sanbruc, medieval smartass, makes a pretty good living selling "magic" swords to gullible knights. When he's forced to steal the real thing from the Chapel Perilous, his troubles are only beginning: For Excalibur is not just the sword of heroes...it’s also the sword that won’t SHUT UP. It communicates with its owner, it knows what kind of owner it deserves, and Henry doesn’t even come close.

To keep Excalibur and the world safe from the appalling Geoffrey Plantagenet, Henry will have to masquerade as a knight, crash a royal wedding, rescue a princess, break a siege, penetrate the secrets of the Perilous Brotherhood, and find Excalibur’s rightful bearer, all while trying to reach an accommodation with a snotty, aristocratic hunk of steel that mocks him, takes over his body, and keeps trying to turn him into the one thing he hates most...a hero.

Pretty sweet, no? You can also friend me on Facebook.

And gang, while you're checking me out, and the other neat authors from my publisher, do remember the troops, past and present. We owe them so much.
