About Jamie McFarlane
Jamie McFarlane is a graduate of Colorado School of Mines with a Master of Science in Mathematics. An avid reader, tinkerer, woodworker and metal sculptor, Jamie is just as likely to be seen smelting aluminum cans in his garage as he is tacking random, discarded iron objects into a small army of beasties that adorn his home’s landscaping.
Jamie’s writing career began as something of a dare which later turned into a tribute. In his late teens, Jamie was well known as the family story-teller, spinning fanciful yarns about ordinary events, usually with the objective of escaping well-deserved trouble. One day, his mother, often the target of his mischievous tales, challenged him to commit his words to writing. Jamie promised he would but time passed, as did his beloved mother. In 2014, Jamie made good on his promise and published his first book.
Jamie is the author of a growing library of novels and novellas including the space opera series - Privateer Tales, and the urban fantasy series - Witchy World. Jamie lives in Lincoln, Nebraska with his wife and enjoys spending time with family and friends.

Blog postFirst discovered in Blockade Runner, the Mhina system is in the western Aeratroas region of the Dwingeloo galaxy. In Blockade Runner, our crew first found the debris field of an ancient Felio fleet that was destroyed by the Kroerak invasion. In Blockade Runner, the Mhina-Tamu wormhole was blockaded by the Confederation of Planets in hopes of preventing further Kroerak incursions.
Elea Station is the home of House of the Bold.

Blog postLocated in the Dwingeloo galaxy, the Tamu solar system is the location of the massive blockade first discovered in Blockade Runner. The central and sole planet in Tamu is Abasi Prime, which is home and birthplace to the Felio people. With a population of roughly a billion, the Felio are organized into houses, typically with matriarchal rule. That there are three wormhole exits to other solar systems brings significant trade to the Tamu system.

Blog postAs I look at completing Privateer’s Supremacy – Privateer Tales #20, I realize that there is a lot of technical data that is never shared in the books. For an author of a lengthy series, consistency is critical. Planets shouldn’t move around, pet cats shouldn’t randomly appear and disappear (sorry Felix), you get the general […]

Blog postThe Space Trooper’s trilogy was a fun change of pace. Prior to starting, I’d never worked with another author to create a story, nor had I worked with a publisher. I can say without reserve that working with Rachel Aukes was one of the highlights of my writing career. To share thoughts with another creative […]

Blog postJunkyard Raiders (Junkyard Pirate #5) is released and waiting for you on Amazon.
2021 has been an exciting, busy year for me as an author, publisher, and personally. Since you know about my publishing efforts, I’ll get right to the personal excitement. A couple of months ago Janet and I brought home a fuzzy ball of red fur, a mini golden doodle. I’ll be honest, this little guy is pretty great, even though he chews everything and that includes human fingers and toes. If you w5 months ago Read more -
Blog postSurprise!
When I chose the name of my publishing company – ‘Fickle Dragon Publishing’ it was because of days like today. I’m just too much of a wild-card to be constrained to one particular genre. Drakon Prince is a great example of some of the ideas rolling around in my head.
For many, concepts like gamelit or litrpg are new. In fact, the genre is so new that Amazon makes no home for it in their categories, even though it is regularly

Blog postIsn’t the highlighted artwork great? For the last several years, Elias Stern has produced the art for all of my science fiction works. The scene above is from the Xandarj star system where AJ and friends have taken on a giant old ship turned junkyard. And to avoid spoilers, that’s about all I can tell you about it.
Release schedule. Boy, if you want to drive an author/publisher nuts, bring this subject up. In general, I don’t want to release books more than once a month. And since it1 year ago Read more -

Blog postHere’s a switch for you. I’ve recently signed two contracts with a small publisher. The first is a project where I’m co-writing a space opera adventure with Rachel Aukes. What a joy it is to work with such a talented writer. I can’t give a lot of details about this yet, but we’re about 50% into the project and I’m loving every moment.
The second contract is for a work in the LitRPG genre. If you’ve read my other works, you know
