It's hard to believe it's been 6 months since this thread was last updated. Just wanted to note that the Battle Ground is on sale today for $1.99 for anyone following this:
https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B0867ZMV2S It is wild that there have been no updates on his site since mid-2021 and even his twitter is silent. Nothing from @longshotauthor since July 2021. When I go there they say to try @jimbutchernews, but that appears to be just an ad for some jewelry these days. The last thing I see is some chatter during Dragoncon 2021 (early Sept 2021) but nothing official there. I hope everything is well with him; maybe he's just taking a social media break. |

Well, that didn't take long. I posted a couple hours ago about it in the deals thread and it was live when I posted it. Sorry I forgot about this one till it was about to go off deal apparently.

I am surprised that nobody has mentioned Heroic Hearts (an anthology of stories edited by Jim Butcher and Kerrie L Hughes) due out on May 3rd, 2022.

Nice! I didn't know about this. There are some good authors/series in here, looks like. Pre-ordered. Thanks for bringing this up.

That is a likely story. And you can read that either with or without sarcasm, the shoe still fits. We all have personal issues and still go to work. I guess if you got more than enough money then you simply stop working if you get into the mood.

I'll give Jim the benefit of the doubt. I enjoy his books and wouldn't want him to just start cranking stuff out stuff and have his work, or health, suffer.

I guess if he was a paid employee of his readers, they could demand he "go to work" whether he is in the mood or not. Alas, he is just a person who chooses to write books and offer them for sale and if he doesn't want to, he doesn't have to.
