The Raconteur

It’s been a while since I’ve posted to the Midian Ranch Blog. Things have been busy, and I’ve been working on my new blog Jason S Walters, Raconteur. This new blog is dedicated to my writing, editing, and publisher projects in general, rather than Midian Ranch in particular. Feel free to visit: there are sample stories from my collection An Unforgiving Land, a story from Michael Williams’ excellent upcoming novel Trajan’s Arch, and links to Michael Stackpoles’ excellent project The Chain Story. You can even have a look at my bibliography, if you like.

Speaking of which, An Unforgiving Land has been selling well locally out here in Gerlach, and even picked up a favorable review in the Reno Gazette Journal. If you want to read the “lost” story from the book (meaning the one I didn’t include so I could use it for other purposes), Crucified Coyote is also available for free. (Please forgive the incomplete introduction. It will be filled out as another link in The Chain Story soon.)

I will be putting up my next blog post/essay The Firebreaks shortly, detailing what we went through when the Rock Creek Fire nearly destroyed the Midian, Granite, and Iverson Ranches over a month ago. In the meantime know that Cassidy is cute, Tina is beautiful, and we have way too many dogs.
