It’s been a damn exciting start to the year for me, what with Grim Solace out and The Written becoming an Amazon bestseller. It’s been hella busy, too, organising the rapid release of Chasing Graves and kicking off the new Emaneska Series, and they haven’t left me with a lot of time to keep you readers up to date.So, as it’s high time I did, I thought I would head down to frigid Victoria Harbour, brave the crowds of geese, and put together a new BenCast for you all about what madness I’ve got

It’s been just under a week since Chasing Graves has launched, and what an overwhelming week it’s been! I’ve been utterly blown away by the response to Chasing Graves, and the reviews this new book has been receiving. It’s been a fun and exciting week, if not busy. Find out how it’s gone and here’s where you can get a copy! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H9KJ1PV.Here are some highlights from the week:–Esme from The Weatherwax Report gives Caltro a score of 90/100!––Novel Notions interviewed me on

I thought I’d put together a BenCast all about my plans for a rapid release of Chasing Graves. In case you missed the news on Twitter and Facebook, I’ll be releasing the whole trilogy between December and March 2019. That means less waiting, more fantasy. It’s something I’ve never attempted before, but am having fun with the challenge of doing three launches back to back. Find out more about the when and the why in the vlog!In the meantime, the launch of Book One – Chasing Graves – is only a

In this latest BenCast, I go through my 1-star reviews. Yep. You read that right. I go toe to toe with the lowest of the low ratings. From my debut The Written to the newest book The Heart of Stone, here’s why people don’t like my stories or my writing. You can’t win them all I think it’s always useful to look at both good and bad reviews. Sometimes they’re constructive and useful, so never wise to dismiss just out of hand. I found it quite entertaining to dig these up and look through.If you

Get a look at the new Chasing Graves cover if you haven’t already seen it in all its raw, dark fantastical beauty. I’m beyond pleased with what artists Shawn King and Chris Cold have produced. I’m also really pleased to say that the book is now available to pre-order on Amazon Kindle before the December 7th launch! For more info and the pre-order links, watch this BenCast or go to my site.I also show you what I’ve been up to with my mother visiting me here on Vancouver Island, which includes my

The second map for Chasing Graves has finally been finished! I’ve put together a time-lapse of how I created the second Chasing Graves map – the city map of Araxes, the City of Countless Souls. This was a tough project due to the amount of detail involved, taking far longer than the previous world map, but I’m incredibly pleased with how it finally turned out. It took far more digital jiggery pokery than usual, which meant I learnt some new skills along the way. Now it’s done, I think it’ll go

The Chasing Graves December launch is hurtling towards us. I’ve been working hard this month, and now that the writing is done, the cover art is almost ready, and the release date has been set, it’s time to get the maps done.There’ll be two maps in each book of the Chasing Graves Trilogy, one for the overall world and one for the city of Araxes, which I’ll be tackling next week. I’m going for a Medieval meets Egyptian style, and hopefully I’ve pulled it off.I’ve always drawn my own maps, and

Feast your eyes on the highlights of the Terrible Ten Con! Here’s what a fantastic group of authors and I got up to last weekend down in Luray, Virginia. I was thrilled to finally meet these people face to face after years of purely online interaction. Stories, tips, masterclasses, banter, arrows, and barrels of scotch were shared.Featuring – Michael J. Sullivan, Robin Sullivan, Phil Tucker, Dyrk Ashton, Daniel Potter, T L Greylock, AC Cobble, Matt Moss, Jeramy Goble, and Bryce O’Connor.Hope you

It’s been a little while since the last BenCast. As I’ve been squirrelled away in my writing cave, turning my first drafts of the Chasing Graves into second and third drafts, I thought I’d give you an update on my progress. If you want to know the RELEASE DATE for the Chasing Graves Trilogy and more about the next EMANESKA SERIES, then watch away. I also let you know a bit more about my Patreon Page and the rewards you can get there for becoming a Patron. For instance, I’ll be releasing Chasing

The latest BenCast is up! This time I take to the high seas to get a break away from the editing saga of the new trilogy I’m working on – Chasing Graves. Me and a few other pirates enjoy the sunshine, I realise I want to live on a boat, and we meet the sea police. Enjoy!For more frequent updates follow me on Twitter @BenGalley or on Facebook and Instagram @BenGalleyAuthor.(Music by LP, Elk Road, and Blakroc feat Nicole Ray and NOE.)
