If you read fantasy for the magic, the world-building, and the occasional moment of dark humor—I write that. One urban fantasy series, one epic fantasy series, both set in the Fractured Arcana universe, with more coming. My newsletter takes you deeper into the worlds, the characters, and what's next.
Ten days

Ten days until the end of Thaumatropic Roots. Ten days until the threads you’ve been following since Mother of Trees pull tight. Since “peace broke out like a plague.” Ten days. That’s all that stands between you and the end. I won’t overtalk this. If you’ve been waiting to see what becomes of Elliah, Hughelas, the dragons, and the fragile cage holding back the Father of Stones… It’s here. Every book has been tightening toward this. Mother of Trees. Bones of Cenaedth. Secrets of Deara. Every choice has led to Shepherds of Truth. Be there on day one: → Preorder Shepherds of Truth Thank you for staying with this series. And if you came to my work through The Guardian League, know this: what breaks here will not stay in the past. — Steve May you get lost this week in another world. Follow me on Goodreads. |

It's an interactive mystery where the community votes and influences what happens next. Every week the story branches based on those votes. It runs on the XRP...
Hey Reader, I don't send a lot of these "here's what's going on behind the curtain" emails, but I've been heads-down on some things this year that I think are worth sharing — especially if you're navigating the same chaos the rest of us are. The short version: the books are selling steadily, the Shepherds of Truth launch cost me more than I made, TikTok taught me an expensive lesson, I've built some automation infrastructure that's genuinely changing how I work — and I have a marketing...
I've been having a lot of fun creating things lately. Not just books. Shoe shelves for my wife. Reels. Sometimes even novels. 🙃 I finally figured out how to tell a story in under thirty seconds. If you're curious what I've been experimenting with outside the books, here's my latest attempt: sjmorriswrites Every second she fights, another elf dies — and she can feel each one go dark. This is the cruelest trap in all of urban fantasy. Book 1 free on Amazon Prime for a limited time — link in...
