Hello friends! Wow, so it’s already summer and I’ve been much too quiet lately as far as updates go. That does not mean I’ve been idle. I’m currently organizing for my next release, which is extremely exciting for me. I don’t quite have a release date pinned down, but know that I’m very close. ItContinue reading “Blurb Drop!”

Excerpt from “The Night With No Relief”
Hello all. Once again it has been forever since I’ve posted here so I thought I’d share a little bit of a story I’ve been getting ideas for lately.

I’ve actually started releasing the first novella, “Dirty Synth”, on Kindle VellaContinue reading “Excerpt from “The Night With No Relief””
Podcast Alert!
I recently had the opportunity to join my old friend and fellow writer, Terry Bartley, on his podcast, Most Writers Are Fans.

Caddy History
Maybe it’s the way Fall has finally found us here in Florida or just me being sentimental but I’m feeling a little nostalgic.

It has been a little over a week since I released The Murder Meets at Dusk into the wild. Whether it’s because the book has been around so long for me, or because of the fullness of life outside of writing and promoting, it feels like longer. The response I’ve gotten has been so awesome.Continue reading “A Moment of Appreciation”
The Murder Meets at Dusk Release Day!
Aleister abruptly stops walking and spits out a string of curses under his breath. Anxiety creates static across their connection. He pulls his left sleeve up to reveal a tightly wrapped bandage. “Get this off of me! It burns!” he snaps. She swiftly draws a knife from her boot and inserts the blade between theContinue reading “The Murder Meets at Dusk Release Day!”
The Murder Meets at Dusk Playlist
Her gaze rolls over him as it would the map to the Fountain of Youth. He can feel her magic stir with the presence of death. Brown fingers twitch against white gauze and the door. All the lines soften around her. Aleister experiences a nauseating desire to bleed again. She makes it feel okay. HisContinue reading “The Murder Meets at Dusk Playlist”
The Murder Meets at Dusk, excerpt
“Aleister,” Montague sighs, his whole form rising and falling, “I cannot say I have brought them all back. Not everybody can withstand the way, especially humans. Seeking knowledge this way could kill you.” Aleister stares into the giant sunglasses, denies to himself that he is human, and says, “Just keep a firm hold and I’llContinue reading “The Murder Meets at Dusk, excerpt”
