As of this date, Undercover is out in both ebook and paperback and doing well. I’ve started the fourth Dan Stone novel, tentatively titled The Assassin and the Pianist. Without giving too much away (no spoiler alert), the story finds Dan and a concert pianist becoming romantically entangled. I’m attempting two things: one, I want […]
I’ve been watching a series on quantum mechanics recently (it’s a form of avoidance). My writing has been going a bit slow lately, interrupted by a serious cold that left me flattened for about five days. In watching the series, one of the more interesting things I discovered, among the many bizarre things about the […]
Diane Donovan of Donovan’s Literary Services has completed her review of RESCUE. She is also part of Midwest Book Review. “Readers looking for a dystopian seat-of-your-pants read that is nearly impossible to put down will find Rescue just the ticket.” You can read her complete review here. I’m happy for the positive review. She’s reviewed […]
With my “After the Fall” series doing well, it’s time for me to settle down and write a fourth book in the series. The shift from polishing and marketing back to creative writing is harder than going the other way. When a novel is finished, one has a large sense of accomplishment. After all, it […]
I’ve been out of touch for a few months. I apologize for not writing sooner. I finished Rescue, the 3rd story in the After the Fall series, and, after weeks of polishing and proofing, finally got it to market. I have it intro-priced at only $.99. The book is already bumping into the Top 100 […]
Uprising out: I’ve just pushed the “Publish” button on Amazon for Uprising. This is a re-write of the two Catherine’s Tales. While well written, those two books never did as well as Jason’s Tale which reached #1 in both Post Apocalyptic and Dystopian categories on Amazon. The re-write is tighter, faster paced, and sharper focused while […]
It’s been quite a year. I can say without reservation that our 2018 Christmas was much less stressful than 2017. Last year I was in the final stages of my cancer treatment which consisted of daily radiation and weekly chemo infusions. Thankfully that is all behind me now. As I said once before, you don’t […]
Revisions & polishing done I’ve completed my final polishing of The Captive Girl. It’s an enjoyable, if slow process; took eight days. I read the text slowly, savoring each phrase and sentence. I’m looking for inappropriate words; ones that miss what I’m aiming for, or ones that are too bland, or ones that are redundant. An author […]
After much consideration and advice from trusted friends, I’m rewriting the two “Catherine’s Tales” and will be taking the current books off the market. That is a pretty radical move (especially for me) but I’ve never been fully satisfied with the two stories. First, they work better as one book, but the tale grew so […]
What a momentous week! And I’m not talking about politics. I completed the first draft of “The Captive Girl” and finished reviewing the audio book for “The Shaman“. My goal was to complete the first draft by end of September. I was a few days late, but not too far off target. I now go into […]
