David Niemitz @davidniemitz.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Always a lot of fun to get new art for Ten Thousand Fleets. As always, Victor knocks it out of the park! #mecha #royalroad #scifi #indieauthors www.royalroad.com/fiction/1704... 040
David Niemitz @davidniemitz.bsky.social · 17/09/2026It’s a release day! Guild Mage 7 is available on Amazon as of today! I enjoyed writing the last three volumes of this series and exploring how Liv grows into political power, to match her magical power - and this is the volume where that begins. #fantasy #royalroad #indieauthors a.co/d/07YeoldK 020

Reposted by David NiemitzS.H. Cooper @pippinacious.bsky.social · 19/08/2026A few of the most helpful things you can do to help an indie author is repost their promos, review their books, and post about your reviews on socials. Just talk about their books. Word of mouth is the most important tool we have. Without it, we disappear. 17636
David Niemitz @davidniemitz.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Just wrote the climax of the 2nd volume of 10KF, which means we'll be getting into volume 3 probably on Thursday.

David Niemitz @davidniemitz.bsky.social · 06/07/2026I have unfortunate news regarding the release of Guild Mage 6: The Lady of Winter, which was scheduled for this Thursday. Amazon did not receive the files in time, due to an error, and cancelled the preorders. 220
David Niemitz @davidniemitz.bsky.social · 05/07/2026This is the first reader-requested mech - the Leviathan. If a Kestrel is a zero-g fighter equivalent, this is the bomber-analogue. This is the 4th out of 5 mechs in the second batch from victor; the last is, if I recall correctly, Annie Royce's modified FS-2 Black Harrier. #mecha 000

David Niemitz @davidniemitz.bsky.social · 14/06/2026The first non-human mech designed by Victor for Ten Thousand Fleets. I think he did a wonderful job of making the design aesthetic really different from the human mechs. You can check out more of his work here: ferkad.wordpress.com 021
