Fall into the season

​It’s that most wonderful time of the year again. Moments of good cheer, curling up in front of the fireplace with a hot cup of sweet liquid and a good book are in season. Especially for those of you who like a bit of nightmare and despair. That’s right, I’m not talking about Thanksgiving or Christmas. Halloween is upon us! Prepare yourself.
This is a great time to revisit two titles that bring the shivers and gore

Tired of the usual scary tales with happy endings? Are Creepshow and Tales from the Crypt right up your alley?
I have the perfect fix.
​
Welcome Despair is a collection of short stories where fate rigs the odds and throws a dirty hand.     
A young corporate office worker with nothing left to lose finds himself with a group of hunters who don’t discriminate when it comes to prey. Children on a ravaged planet are abducted by the enemy and learn just how strong they can be.  A jaded reporter interviews the leader of a prominent neighborhood. One soul is chased into a plane of existence with no signs of escape.
Each story opens a doorway into fear, pain, sorrow and blood. Looking for happy endings? Not here.
​Come, settle in and Welcome Despair.

The holiday is not complete without vampires. Dark, brooding, and sexy. They make every night an adventure. Unless, you’re a millennial vampire who brings shame on their coven. 
Fed up and disgusted with the new generation of vampires’ ignorance and lack of social grace the elders implement a new decree. Re-education is in order so they ship the blood thirsty ingrates to boarding school in hopes they catch some common sense. And the young ones don’t like one bit.
 War is coming.
As successors to take over their covens they must buck up and act responsible for once in their lives.
Losing the battle means extinction but it may be too much of a burden for this group of spoiled blood suckers.
Check out Blood Doctrine and get ready for book two, Blood Dominion, coming Summer of 2018.
​
So, climb into an old rickety rocking chair, wrap up in your favorite blankie and indulge by flickering candle light all things that make your skin crawl.
I will be unleashing a slew of new titles. Six books are slotted for release in 2018, bringing the total to fourteen, so catching up now is easy and you get to see what floats your boat.  With that, I have openings for beta readers. If you’re interested in taking the plunge to help in the creation of new books, contact me via email. Every beta reader gets a signed print copy of the book and (if you want) a mention in its dedication page.
Have feedback about any of my books so far? Want to know more about your fave character(s)? Lay it on me.
I am always on a quest to make my stories better for you.
The next newsletter, coming mid December, will be my year in review and a snapshot of what’s in the works.
I Hope to see you at one of my book signings and until then;
Have a wonderful holiday season.
Yes, this time I mean those other two well-known festivities. When I grab my mug of ‘more rum than egg nog’, I’ll raise it in a toast:
To You.
