A Heartfelt Thank You and Another Sneak Peek

23 Apr

I hadn’t realized how many people were now following my blog but it seems that every day I get notified of another follower. That’s awesome. I just wish I had more interesting stuff to blog about. I almost feel like I’m selling you guys short.

Either way, THANK YOU!

And, as promised, anytime there is something new, cool or soon to come, I announce it here first. Like the cover for Caldera 6.

Wait…what?! Caldera 6?! But…where is 5? Yeah, I know. Sometimes I like to put the cart before the horse and since I am the world’s WORST secret keeper, I’ll never be able to have a ‘cover reveal party’ like so many others do online.

Nope.

As soon as Jeffrey Kosh creates something that tickles my fancy, I tell EVERYBODY! And boy, did he do some fancy tickling this time around!

I really wish I had the patience to wait and have a big reveal party but we all know that’s not me. Hmmm. I guess it’s safe to say that if he made me a cover for #6 that there WILL be one. I better get to writing! 🙂

Check it out!

Caldera 6

Oh yeah. I’m digging it.

I sure hope the story I come up with is as good as the cover!

Feel the Heath!

27 Sep

Jeffrey Kosh stepped up again and whipped out the cover for Caldera 4 earlier today. As I was thanking him, he hits me with a promo image for the series with the caption, “Feel the Heath”.

I was totally impressed with the image, but the catch phrase had me laughing.
Still…why not use it! Catchy and funny, maybe it will help folks to remember.

Without further ado, here’s the promo!

Hunter II Coming Soon!

24 Apr

Yes, I know I suck at keeping up this blog. Trust me, every year when I renew it I ask myself if I should. But, like the road to hell, I have tons of good intentions.

Anywho…yes! For those of you who have asked, I am carrying on with the Hunter story line. Hunter II is currently in line waiting for the editor to take a look at it and tell me how horrible I am at putting words to paper. Luckily she enjoyed the story, but she made it painfully obvious that I still have a LOT to learn when it comes to sentence structure and everything else that makes writing important. At least I’m a decent story teller.

Hunter III

Once again, Jeffrey Kosh stepped up and created an awesome cover for me.

I can’t be like other authors and keep everything a secret until the day before publishing. Or wait and have a big cover release party or whatever it is they do these days. Oh no. As soon as he created it I plastered it all over Facebook.
I think three people saw it.

Anyway, we’re expecting this continuation to release sometime around the end of May. My birthday is mid June so worst case scenario, it could be my birthday present to you, the readers.

It’s funny. I had about seven different projects sitting around half finished. I had pretty much given up on writing. The only reason I finished Hunter was because Tracy wanted me to put something out. It was the only one that I was far enough along in to even remotely be able to finish within her timeline. The few who read it strongly suggested I continue the story. So I did. By the time I finished Hunter II, I was ready to go back and finish some of the other projects that were wasting space on my hard drive.

But lo…Hunter continued to call to me. So, I’m actually in the middle of Hunter III. Hopefully I can wrap this story up and leave it as a trilogy. At least that’s the plan. I know I don’t want to get so tied up in continuing the story that it sucks the joy out of writing again. It’s slowly found its way back to me and I want to ride this wave of momentum as long as it will let me.

So, there you have it. Hunter II should be out soon. Well, relatively soon. A lot can happen in a month, so keep your fingers crossed for me!

‘Til next time!

Happy reading!

Mind Trip

13 Oct

Available for pre-order now: Mind Trip.

I’ve always said that I’m not a short story writer. I never felt like I could do what others could…creating a new world with believable characters within a few short pages. That was pure magic to me.

When I was first approached and asked to submit for a charity anthology, I really didn’t think I could pass muster. The readers didn’t agree. One led to another which led to another and before I realized it, I had all of this tales sitting on my computer begging to be shared.

mind-trip

These are just a few of the dark and twisted ideas that have run through my mind over the years. Join me in a journey to the darker side of short story fiction.

Mobsters intent on ruling the world reveals that sometimes you just can’t go home.

The release of a zombie virus on a small rural college town, followed by the ramifications on the parent company and the results of trying to hide your culpability.

Sometimes reality isn’t what you think it is. Those noises in the attic may not be rats…

Dwelling on the past can be introspective but refusing to let go will skew your reality.

When asking Santa for something, remember to be specific.

The search for ultimate truth and knowledge opens the creator to dark influences.

You know you are about to die. You want nothing more than to protect your loved ones. In a fever induced delirium you lead the threat away from those you care most about.
