Excited to share that my upcoming collection ALL THE HIDDEN PLACES has received its second starred review, this time from Kirkus: "Rich and strange, while going straight to the heart." www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews...
It is here. ALL THE HIDDEN PLACES in its final form. Massive thank you to the incredible Kathryn English for designing this beauty. And to Blackstone Publishing for letting me put all my stories (and some new entries) in one place. So excited for this to be out in the world. Not too long now.
All the Hidden Places is coming out in less than two months. Some reviews are in, like this amazing starred review over at @libraryjournal.bsky.social by @booksnyarn.bsky.social! www.libraryjournal.com/review/all-t...
Dion Graham has done an incredible job on this whole series, He so deserves this Audie nomination for his work on Ruin! So lucky I got to work with him on the entire Convergence Saga. Congratulations to all the other nominees! www.audiopub.org/2026audies
Despite everything, this was a writing year that I am immensely proud of. The first book in a co-written multiversal trilogy. Two short stories conceptually in the making for over a decade. And the last book of the Convergence Saga. Concludes an already big story in a big way.
First review for A RUIN, GREAT AND FREE. And it's a starred review from @libraryjournal.bsky.social! "The conclusion to 'The Convergence Saga' ... is stunning in its emotional depth while still appealing to readers looking for an action-filled fantasy." www.libraryjournal.com/review/a-rui...
Where I (very respectfully) talk about what I think is sometimes the conflict between what a reader wants and what a writer is trying to do: Full video: youtu.be/Fqiw2RQIy2s?...

2024 is almost here. Here's what I was up to in 2023 that I'm particularly proud of: wordpress.com/post/cadwell...
On Thursday November 16th at 6:30pm I'll be at Bookmarks (in Winston-Salem) with the incredibly talented Gabriel Bump, discussing our books. Bump's The New Naturals is brilliant and bright and full of hope. I can't wait to discuss it with him. www.bookmarksnc.org/GabrielBump_...
What a day! So happy to finally see WE ARE THE CRISIS out in the world
