The Skyclad Warriors
Xandr stood at the prow of the Horizon Chaser, watching the waves split apart and close together, his thoughts flowing like the water. They had been traveling for more than a cycle, down the Potamis toward the Sea, and in the confines of the ship, he had been forced into clothing. It was not as though the... Continue Reading →
Ages of Aenya: Book 2 Chapter 12, “The Prince of Serpents”
Xandr was in a dark place. It was not the cage he had been placed into or the walls beyond, but the dungeon of the self, the light of reason, faith, and hope having gone from him. Such darkness could not be abated, even by the noonday sun. It was the place he came to... Continue Reading →
Ages of Aenya: Book 2 Chapter 1, “Thelana Leaves Home”
‘Thelana Leaves Home’ artwork by Nicholas Swenson. Please note: This art is meant to be INNOCENT. If you see it otherwise, the problem is with YOU, not with the image. Blooms of orange and purple brushed at her thighs and touched the horizon. It was the time of low moon, the season of color,... Continue Reading →
Aenya News Update 9/20/2015
Sometimes, there is so much going on in my head and in my life, I have to break it down in a news-style format. Niches are for Bitches What is perhaps my most crushing news, my Ages of Aenya Kickstarter failed to raise the $10,000 needed for editing and marketing. Just the editing alone costs...

Ages of Aenya Kickstarter Video

Thelana: Feminist Icon?
Can a totally naked heroine become a feminist icon? I can already hear the detractors, the angry feminists calling me out as a sexist. Their argument, I imagine, will go something like this, Thelana is the lead heroine in Nick Alimonos' fantasy epic, "Ages of Aenya," and she is everything we love to see in... Continue Reading →
Happy Birthday, Xandr!
So, the other day, one of my fans sent me a message, "Happy Anniversary!" I was confused, until he told me that, on June 28th, 1999, I posted the very first Aenya related story. On that day, Xandr was born (OK, this post is a bit late). It comes as a bit of a shock to... Continue Reading →
SNEAK PEAK #4: THE ONE SEA
Every now and again, I like to take a mental detour from whatever book I am writing, to explore the goings on of my favorite naked heroes, Xandr and Thelana. This is a very early rough draft from the upcoming sequel to Ages of Aenya and The Princess of Aenya, tentatively titled, The One Sea (originally Skyclad Warriors). Previously, as seen in parts #1, #2 and #3,... Continue Reading →
2014 Year End Review
Radia Noora, the Princess of AenyaWell, folks, this is it, another year gone at the Writer's Disease. I would like to say this was the year that my dreams came true, that I found a publisher for my work and sold millions, but alas, Fate has yet to smile on me. Like Frodo Baggins, I...
