Brian and Michelle Guthrie liked a review for Rise
I've always thought when you open a good fantasy novel you should find yourself lost in an unfamiliar world. The joy is in discovering that world and the story that unfolds there. Rise delivered that joy to me immediately. We're dropped into Logwyn's room and immediately immersed in a fascinating world that feels equal parts futuristic and ancient. Personally I truly enjoy when an author doesn't feel the need to over explain everything. I feel excited when an author trusts me enough to let me find my own way. Brian does that very well here. Context clues, phrasing, vocabulary and the main characters thoughts blend together beautifully to give me a picture, an idea and most importantly an atmosphere to the world of Rise. I consider it great praise that this world is completely confusing to me and I have no idea what is about to befall Logwyn but I can't wait to learn more about both. You can't ask much more from a story than that.

    Brian and Michelle Guthrie liked an update for Detective Diaries

    Hello, readers!

    Wow! The number of followers has certainly jumped from our 1st Detective Sunday! As I had said in that update, this is the Wednesday Update for Chapter Two: Chemistry. I want to thank those accompanying us on the path Detective Diaries is set on, and I hope you enjoy your stay in our community. Currently, the pacing of the story has a slow start, but starting next chapter is when the reader will get involved with the heart of the problem and get to know who the main protagonists are. Soon, you all will know why this is majorly mystery.

    Until next time, Sixth.

      Brian and Michelle Guthrie liked an update for The Madness of Mr. Butler

      Such a great week. First things first: 

      Yesterday my son, Andrew Phoenix Haase was born! He is healthy and amazing, and I’m just using this email as another means for shouting it all from the mountaintops. Here he is: 

      Also, I recently interviewed the one and only Jim McDoniel, author of "An Unattractive Vampire." He was very generous with his time and detail in his interview. You can read and enjoy that here: http://renderositymagazine.com/news.php?viewStory=539

      Other than that, my latest effort, a dark comedy about fatherhood entitled "An Adventure With Dada" is doing pretty well funding thus far, and I thank any and all of you who have already pre-ordered. If you would be so kind as to stop by the page, check it out, leave a review or make a recommendation, or perhaps even pre-order a copy in honor of my son’s birthday (manipulative much, Mr. Haase?) that would be fantastic. You can check out the page here: An Adventure With Dada!

      And an enormous thank you is in order to all of you who have recently purchased Mr. Butler. Keep the word of mouth going and let me know if you have any questions/need anything. The book is still progressing well, but recent birth events will put work on the book back just a little while longer. I hope you understand. Of course you do. Thank you, I appreciate that. 

      As always, please keep in touch. You can direct message me on here anytime. 

      Fellow authors: I’d be happy to look over any of your work and perhaps leave a review, buy a copy, make a recommendation, etc...but please reach out to me. I am far too distracted at this time to initiate anything, I hope you understand. 

      Love to each and every one of you.

      -Michael/Dada
