Genoskwa 6

I had a plan.

Write the story, get it edited and prepped for publishing, then announce it. Here. With fanfare.

Except…the best laid plans of mice and men, right?

If you follow me on Facebook then you already know that G6 is up for pre-order. But if you only follow me here, this is news.

All I can do is apologize. I mean, you’re hearing the news a little late but it’s not like others have already read the story. It’s still on pre-order.

As I predicted previously, this is the final installment of the Genoskwa series. I feel like it landed in a good way. I sincerely hope you like it.

And, as always, please leave a review wherever you pick it up. I don’t even pretend to understand algorithms, but I know that reviews help. A lot.

As for the future…I am working on something that…well, it seemed like a cool idea when I first thunk of it. I’m not sure how it will be received, but I’m willing to roll the dice. I will say that I had to alter it pretty significantly from it’s original version. It seemed like a huge issue at the time and maybe once it’s released, I’ll make a blog post about it.

I don’t want to give too much away too early so let’s just call this a teaser. I know, I’m the worst at keeping secrets. I always reveal covers before the story is finished or announce new projects when they’re still in the planning stage, but this time? I want to play it close to the vest.

I’ll leave you with this:

Hmmm. Trilogy? Well, I guess I’m committed then, aren’t I?

Okay. That’s enough for now. Go and pre-order G6. You gotta know how it ends, right? Meanwhile, I’ve got work to do. Plastic flamingos and…stuff.

😉

Here’s wishing you much love, luck and bacon!

Genoskwa Updates!

19 Jan

Good grief, I suck at maintaining this page. You’d never believe I was a ‘writer’ based off of what’s available here, would you?

Okay, enough griping, on to the news.

Genoskwa was what I would consider a success (thanks entirely to you, the readers). Genoskwa 2 is hot on its heels. G3 should be out any day now…and I guess I have to announce to the world that Genoskwa will no longer be a trilogy. It is officially a new series.
To be fair, I had no intention of making it a series. Heck, I originally just wanted to write the first one and be done with it, but the beta readers said no, you have to follow it up. Then my beautiful, charming, overly smart, and outrageously HAWT editor told me I needed to follow it up. Then my publisher said I had BETTER follow it up. So I decided I better listen to those who know best. But I can’t just write two…if there’s going to be more than one, then it has to be a trilogy at a minimum. (Yes, Bridger fans, that means there’s at least one more Bridger that I owe you!) And I really thought I did a good job of wrapping up the storyline with number 3.
But, after G3 went through proofing and beta, and after my editor…excuse me, my beautiful, intelligent, charming, and bodaciously hot editor told me that it should be carried on and made into a real series, who am I to argue?
So, to those of you who have followed the story this far, know that there is much more blood to be spilled, more acts of vengeance waiting in the wings, and (hopefully) even more nail-biting tension to be experienced. I just really, really, REALLY hope that I don’t disappoint.

In the meantime, know that G3 should drop just any day now and I hope you like the different spin I put on the story this time.

Here’s wishing you much love, luck, and bacon!

No Movie…Yet

08 Nov

Okay, so I made a book trailer a while back. All of my writer friends had trailers made and I was feeling left out. I contacted a couple of different services that make trailers I could afford but none could capture the vision I had.

I tried contacting a few independent film makers. Holy smokes…you’d think I was asking for a feature film! I tried calling the local university. Maybe a film or cinema student was up to the challenge. No takers.

Anywho, I got to watching some of the stuff on YouTube and the thought occurred to me, why not make my own? True, I used clips from existing footage but I read through the fair use rules and it sounded like I was ok to run with my idea. I grabbed a karaoke version of the perfect song and used it as the background music.

After I shared it on Facebook I realized that I had forgotten to say anything about the book series it was supposed to be advertising. That led to numerous congratulatory messages for the upcoming movie…’Doh!

Anyway, here’s the finished trailer. I know its nowhere near professional but I like it. Feel free to share it and help me spread the word.

Thanks yall!
