We have a lot going on this year, but most of it isn’t happening here on this site. Yes, some of our plans involve additional content here at schlockmercenary.com, but the biggest plans revolve around finally getting the entire series into print.
I’ll try to do better about posting things here. Until then, you might consider checking out our Discord community server, “Hypernode Connect,” where I’m quite a bit more active. This invite link should be good through January 17th.
(If you miss the window, you can request a fresh link by emailing schlockmercenary@gmail.com.)

Book 18 Kickstarter Closes FRIDAY
Here’s the Kickstarter link for Mandatory Failure: Schlock Mercenary Book 18.
The project closes this Friday, October 20th, at 5pm Eastern time. I’d love for you to not miss out on it.
If you’ve never purchased a Schlock Mercenary book before, this is a great place to start. Mandatory Failure functions well as a stand-alone story, but it’s also the first book in the capstone trilogy for all of Schlock Mercenary. See, I wrote Books 18, 19, and 20 as a trilogy because that structure helped me keep things focused—no small challenge when wrapping up a story that took me twenty years to write.
Anyway, the Kickstarter… we’ve unlocked some ship coins, and a mission patch, and some desktop wallpapers. If you want any of those (especially the mission patch, which is a Kickstarter Exclusive) you should back the project now, before it closes.
Here’s the link, just in case you scrolled past it…

Not only have we funded, but we’ve reached some stretch goals, too! Click here to visit the Kickstarter and see the latest news.
The project will run until October 20th of 2023. Back it early to ensure that you don’t miss out on the bonus goodies, and to help us afford even more bonus goodies.
Coming Back From the Printer!
Big Dumb Objects is on its way back from the printer!
We had a couple of delays, but yesterday we received our advance copies of the book, along with some advance copies of the slipcase for books 12 through 16.
It wasn’t a big box of books, but it was full of new book smell. Which I wish I could share, because it’s awesome.
You’ve been waiting a long time for these, and the shipping container won’t actually get here until early May, and then I need to begin signing and sketching, so there’s a bit more waiting to be done.
But it’s a measurable wait. We can see the light at the end of the tunnel, and it is definitely not a train.
