After years of putting it off, I've finally gone and had an actual website made for me! jrmathewsauthor.com Please sign up for my newsletter on the website if you can. I've realized how important it is to have an independent way of reaching my readers. Thanks all! #litrpg #progressionfantasy

I'm getting a new cover for an omnibus edition of Portal to Nova Roma books 1-3. The amazing Daniele Turturici (who did my Jake's MM covers!) is designing it. Take a look at these beautiful art designs they came up with just to get a feel for the city of Nova Roma and my MC! #progressionfantasy

The first drafts for both book 4 and 5 of Portal to Nova Roma are officially DONE! I still need to do two rounds of edits and then have my editor do the same but we are getting REAL CLOSE! #litrpg #progressionfantasy

I tend to avoid looking at reviews just to spare my own mental health but I decided to glance at Jake's Magical Market 3's audiobook reviews and it's really moving to see how much the ending of the series has connected with people. Here is one of my favorites: #litrpg #progressionfantasy

This old photo of my apartment from 10+ years ago popped up and I was reminded of how much I loved my old library. I used to have so many books I ran out of space and had to stack them on the floor. There are more bookshelves full of books around the corner as well! #litrpg #books

Cover art for Portal to Nova Roma: Paris (Book 4) coming soon*! *currently writing both book 4 and 5 at the same time so book 4 is going to be delaying for a bit but once the last two books are done they will both come out around the same time. #litrpg #progressionfantasy #portaltonovaroma
