The Great and Mighty K.J.Taylor!

A Landmark

During my trip to Melbourne I made a rather exciting discovery, and I have photographic proof!

Today my Australian publisher contacted me with a surprising request: they want to release a large print version of The Shadow’s Heir for the visually impaired. Naturally, I said yes. If only my great-grandfather was alive to see it (he died before I ever got published, but he’s the only guy I ever met who… {read more}

Skyrim Sweetroll

Did I mention that I love Skyrim? Well, I do. And today, since the weather is absolutely foul, I took some time out to do some baking and made… this! (Dagger added for scale/authenticity/cutting it up) I used this recipe here, and it turned out very tasty. I also briefly considered putting an “arrow in… {read more}
