With more then 100 volumes in the series, The Adventures of Quaraun the Insane features a wide range of some pretty awesome fantasy art. Here's a gallery to showcase them...
*At the moment these are just static images. I will be adding to this site, "About the Book" pages for each separate volume in the series. As those pages go up, I will turn the corresponding image here, into a link to that page, where you'll be able to see the book cover image full size.
The books are not shown in series order here. If you want to know which order the books should be read in, please see the chart on THIS PAGE.
This is probably the most massive project I have ever taken on. In all more then a dozen different artists were involved in making the art for these books.
As you may or may not be aware, this is the first time I have published a series with cover art. Since the 1970s I have never used cover art on my books. Most of my stories were published in magazines, chapbooks, and anthologies, so no need for covers. Stories that were stand-alone-chapbooks always just had blank pictureless covers with only the title printed on the covers.
This is also the first time a series of mine is being released as e-book before print. Normally my books go print first and MAYBE go to ebook. I've rarely released any of my stories as ebooks. So, there are a lot of new things happening for me with the Quaraun series.
I absolutely LOVE the cover art. I want to send out a great big THANK YOU to all the artists, they did an amazing job. I just want hug everyone of them. These pictures are so beautiful. I love them.

QUESTION: How many stories are there in the series?
ANSWER: I have never counted.
Each of the finished stories will be at least 25,000 words long and up to 75,000 words long in some instances, with the majority of the stories being at 50k to 90k words in length.
Some are over 100k, a few are over 200k, and at least 1 (Summoner of Darkness) passed 300k
Yes! That DOES mean the Quaraun series is NOT a short story serial, nor is it a novella serial. Each book in the Quaraun series is a full length novel.
Before the serial started publication, I had received several reader questions asking if this was a series of short stories or a series of novellas. It is neither. These are novels. (The reason folks were asking is because, I am have been a short story writer since 1978 and they were confused when I announced this series back in 2011. They did not expect me to switch to longer stories.)
As you probably have figured out by now, this is a spin-off of The Twighlight Manor series, which was my longest running serial to date, running monthly & bi-monthly releases from 1978 to 1997 and 4 annual releases from 1997 to 2015. Most of the TMStories ranged from 3,000 to 7,500 words each. The Twighlight Manor series is now in its 37th year ans still going.
The Quaraun series is a prequel to The TMSeries.
Like the TMSeries, the Quaraun series is written in an "open ended soap opera" style. Meaning there is no end planned, and the Quaraun series could conceivably, run for 30 or more years in exactly the same way the TMSeries has done.
So, how many books will there be in the Quaraun series? The answer is unknown. At MINIMUM is will contain at least 130 volumes, but there are more then 300 plots already started. Below is an alphabetical list of the work-in-progress stories and their current working titles. As each title is published, I will change it to a link:

~oO0~ Twighlight Manor series 35th anniversary rewrite of the original
As I said, these are working titles, so the titles may change by the time the story itself is published.
All of the titles listed above, already have a "short story" plot written out. Each of these varies from 1,000 to 3,000 words. 130 of them are already expanded to 5,000 to 7,000 words.
It takes me about 3 weeks to take each 5k short story/plot and rewrite it into a 50k novel. Editing takes about a week. Formatting, takes about an hour. Thus each book takes about a month to complete. The series is planned to have monthly releases from September 2014 and at least until September 2023. Yes, it is going to take 9 years for this project to be completed.
As of today (March 7, 2015) there are 349 covers commissioned with at least that many stories planned, 130 stories with a of minimum 5k long plots outlined, 21 volumes are mostly written and at 25,000 to 40,000 words each (thus nearing completion). There are 7 others at 45,000 to 55,000 words each and currently in the final stages of editing/formatting/etc. Three volumes are currently published. The first 10 volumes should be published by May 2015, possibly sooner.
At last count there were 349 stories total planned for the full run of this (and likely more to be added). The covers for those 349 stories have already been commissioned, about half of the covers are now finished. I will continue to upload those as they become available. Getting these covers made for a series of this scale is no small feat; a team of more then a dozen cover artists have come together for this project. {{{Big hugs to the team of wonderful artists working on this project! Your artwork is amazing! I loves them!}}}
The planning for this project started in summer of 2011. I spent 2012 creating the characters, setting, creatures, character backstories, cross referencing with The Twighlight Manor series. Spent 2013 writing up the outlines for the original 130 stories planned, and had planned to start releasing this in January 2014. Unfortunately, several health issues side tracked the whole project when I spent 5 months bedridden due to a back, hip, and knee injury and then several more months relearning to walk. The back injury left me unable to move my arms during those 5 months, and thus I was unable to type/write from November 2013 until May 2014 (which means I was on a sick leave from writing - and everything else - for a total of 10 months, from November 2013 til August 2014.)
I wasn't able to start writing again until August 2014, but it's slow going now. I've limited movement now, sitting, standing, and walking are all major tasks while my injuries continue to heal, and I was rushed back into the hospital November 14, 2014, and then again for surgery December 2, 2014, and was without the use of my arm until December 27, 2014 and only limited use after that and am still in and out of the hospital, now in March 2015.
So, because my health is roller coaster ride ride now, and I'm having to work around doctors and hospitals, the first few issues of the series will not seeing regular releases. Oh well. I am slowly recovering, so, hopefully those health interruptions are coming to an end soon and I'll be back on this project full time. At this point releases will be irregular at least until August 2015, after which they should, hopefully, be monthly as planned.
This is by far the biggest (and most expensive - this will be the first time I've done a series with professional cover art; I usually do my own cover art) project I have ever undertaken. Because these are novels and not short stories, this series dwarfs the Twighlight Manor series with it's 237 volumes, as those were mostly short stories.
Right now you guys are watching the early stages of this thing as it unfolds. Thank you for all your love and support as we get this project up and running.
{{{lots of hugs, love, and kisses - for all of you reading this}}}
What do you want to become?
What did you do today to step closer to that goal?
Whatever you do, strive to be your best at it!
And remember to have yourself a great and wonderfully glorious day!

"People deserve a break. The stressed and unorganized person who doesn’t have the same priorities as you. They may be dealing with an autistic child, abusive spouse, fading parents, or cancer. Don’t judge people until you’ve walked a mile in their shoes. Give them a break instead."
— Guy Kawasaki
I'm a woman who has had 7 miscarriages, and wears "elaborate clothes". Because I have no children, the residents of Old Orchard Beach, beat me up, calling me a transsexual, claiming only a man would dress like I do, claiming that the reason I have no children is because I'm not really female.
They left me paralyzed and crippled.
They crushed my hips, my pelvis, and my spine, and took away, what little chance I had to carry a pregnancy to full term.
I'm crippled for the rest of my life. I can barely walk now. It's why I'm now on a cane. Any hope I had of having children is gone now.
That's the reality, of the gay hatred of this town.
I have Autism. I wear pink. I wear glitter. I talk with a "funny gay sounding voice".
According to the people in this town:
I walk like a fag...
talk like a fag...
dress like a fag...
act like a fag...
and therefor must be treated like a fag...
I need to be taught my place...
I deserve to be shot in the head...
I look gay, and therefore I must be,
because no one but gay men, talk in this voice
no one but gay men wear pink
no one but gay men wear glitter
no one but gay men prance instead of walk...
so they beat me up, because I'm "too gay" for Old Orchard Beach
they cut my car in half, because I'm "too gay" for Old Orchard Beach
they put a bomb in my house, because I'm "too gay" for Old Orchard Beach
they filled my motorhome with feces, because I'm "too gay" for Old Orchard Beach
they kidnapped my cats, because I'm "too gay" for Old Orchard Beach
they drove a back hoe over my house, because I'm "too gay" for Old Orchard Beach
they cut my cats heads off and nailed their heads to my door, because I'm "too gay" for Old Orchard Beach
because I have Autism
and that makes me "too gay for the family friend town of Old Orchard Beach"
I used to dance when I walked... but after 5 months paralyzed, 18 months relearning to walk, and now 4 years later, my leg is lame and I am crippled, barely able to stand, dragging a lame leg, I'll never dance again.
Do you know what that's like?
Can you even begin to imagine?
To be an Autistic person, who can no longer dance when I walk?
They hate gay men so much, that they are willing to beat up a childless autistic women, in ill health, accusing her of being a transvestite.
Because these evil people took away my ability to have children, I had cats; but they took my cats, and cut off their heads, and nailed them to my door.
Welcome to Old Orchard Beach. The gay-hating capital of Maine.
This is the reality of how Autistics are seen by the world.
This is the reality of how Autistics are treated by "normal" people.
This is the reality of being transgender in Old Orchard Beach.
This is the reality of what bullies do to someone with mental illnesses, they do not understand.
This is the reality of living with Autism.
Once you’ve seen, you can no longer act like you don’t know.
Open your eyes to the truth. It’s all around you.
Don’t deny what the eyes to your soul have revealed to you.
Now that you know, you cannot feign ignorance.
Now that you’re aware of the problem, you cannot pretend you don’t care.
To be concerned is to be human.

NOTE: The volume numbers and stories titles, on the covers of all the unpublished stories are "working titles" and "working volume numbers" and may change by the time of publication.
I'm an author. This is an author home page. It's about me, my life, my books, my hobbies, my home town, and anything else that applies to me and my life.
Since starting my writing career in 1978, I have written 130+ novels, 2,000+ short stories, 6,000+ non-fiction articles (ALL are found on this site), a few dozen stage plays, 12,000+ blog posts, and a few comic book scripts for Disney's Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck (I only worked for Disney one year (in 2005) and only wrote a few stories for their Danish comic books).
NOTE: I ONLY write the Quaraun series (aka The Twighlight Manor series aka The Adventures of Quaraun the Insane). In recent years there has been an issue with impersonators trying to pass books off as written by me, notably several non-fiction and Erotica books. I write neither nonfiction nor Erotica.
ALL of my books and their cover arts are listed on my website here. Beware of any books you find claiming to be me. If the books are NOT listed here on my website, they are NOT my books.
In fiction works, I specialize in Weird/Bizarro Tales set in 40th century CyberPunk-Quasi Medieval, Cozy Dark Fantasy and Science Fiction worlds featuring an intersex Elf and his Faerie husband main characters. I DO NOT WRITE ANY OTHER SERIES - THIS SERIES IS THE ONLY ONE I WRITE.
Non-fiction (found ONLY here on my site) is daily updates of events in my life, and how-tos on how I write my novels.
I DO NOT write Erotica.
I DO NOT write books with HUMAN characters.
The Erotica books and books with Human characters, that you are finding, are written by scammers trying to impersonate me.
There is an ongoing FBI investigation into this matter. If you find any such books, please report them to FBI Agent Andy Drewer @207–774–9322
146 Portland Ave, Old Orchard Beach, Maine, is NOT FOR SALE.
And I'm sick of real estate agents who are too incompetent to research land ownership before they show up to stick a for sale sign in my yard.
The fact of the matter is, my son was murdered in 2013, and the friends and family of the murderer think it is funny to keep ILLEGALLY listing my land for sale, because apparently their child murdering bitch friend didn't hurt me enough by crippling me with a golf club, ripping my baby out of my 8 month pregnant belly and beating his brains out on the ground with a golf club.
Also, her friends and family like to gaslight me by doxing me on ufo and alien abduction forums, while pretending to be me, and trying to make it look like I believe in ufos or aliens, even though I think people who believe in ufos are raving lunatics and people who claim to be alien abductees are crazy.
So, yeah, my son was murdered and the murder's friends and family endlessly harass me, my friends, and my family both online and offline, and I'm not happy with it at all.
There is an ongoing FBI investigation into this matter.
The FBI is looking for information into:
I'm going to repeat it because I'm tired of people showing up and making offers:
146 Portland Ave, Old Orchard Beach, Maine, is NOT FOR SALE.
