His next book, Black Meridian: Piracy & Empire, is a sweeping narrative history of the Golden Age of Piracy and its role in shaping the modern world.

In 2022, Sayers’ daughter was diagnosed with leukemia, a life-changing event that reshaped his priorities. He stepped away from other responsibilities to become her full-time caregiver and has since been an advocate for pediatric cancer awareness. In addition to pledging 100% of his royalties for the first 90 days of Hoplite Ridge sales to the Clements Cuties Foundation, Sayers continues to donate 20% of ongoing royalties from the novel to organizations that support families facing pediatric cancer. He has also donated most royalties from Conrad Scott to hospice programs, helping provide dignity and care for those facing the end of life.
