A Little Shameless Plug

Terrible Minds Flash Fiction Challenge - Strange Photos

Thought I'd have a go at one of these.   Challenge was to search "Strange Photos" and pick one, write 1000 (or 1146, in this case) or so words of whatever comes to mind because of it.  My dip into the 'strange photos' section of Google Images dumped me right in the lap of the Merrilyn Cryptid Museum  which is full of the apparently re-discovered remains of various mythological creatures, all preserved and displayed all scientific and stuff. Anyway, here is... dun dun dun... The Collector Photo Credit: Alex CF 2016 In the basement, the boxes lie. A rustling of parchment.  Flicker of the gas lamps.  Scratching of nib against paper.  But otherwise, silence.  And a forest of boxes. The man at the desk put down his pen and blotted the ink.  He surveyed his handiwork, double checking for mistakes.  There were none, so he spread a layer of paste in the appropriate space and pressed the label into it: Homomimus ...

Smoked Out: The Shifters of Olsson's Pass Book Two - Now In Paperback!

Yay! I just love the full spread covers, they're fun. Anyway, if you like the weight and feel of a more traditional medium for reading, I've uploaded both Smoked Out  and Snowed In  as paperbacks! They're available on Amazon.com and other marketplaces.

Book Two Is Live!

It's here!  It's live!  The explosive follow up to my first novel, Snowed In , is now on Kindle Unlimited! Here's the blurb: Freedom and a fresh start; that's all Lisa Hamilton wanted when she came to Olsson's Pass. She got a lot more than that. Mystery, murder – and a smoldering police chief – were all part of the package. Danger too, because not only must she battle her own demons, but there are real monsters lurking in the woods and people are dying. Tourists and bugs are about all Washington Jones had to look forward to in a Rocky Mountain summer. Until someone starts to turn up the heat by killing a couple locals and blaming it on the Valley's only wolf. If that wasn't stressful enough, now that there's a smoking hot biologist come to town, Wash finds himself smitten, and fast. The town has turned into a powder keg, and all that it'll take to ignite it is a spark... I hope you guys enjoy this one!

Aaaaand Done!

Well, the chapters and epilogue are done. Now comes the not-as-much-fun part, namely: Editing and Formatting. But the book is done.  It's DONE, guys!  And if all goes well, it should be up and running in the next couple days. YAY!

Getting Closer

Well, I'm down to the last 20k +/- of Book Two.  Sweeet!  I took the last couple days off the writing push - I didn't want to burn myself out.  Burn out doesn't get books finished. So, for this week: Chapters 15, 16, 17 and hopefully 18...if I keep up the 3-4k/day pace then I might get 19 and 20 in there, and then it's just a matter of editing and formatting in Scriviner, cover tweaking and... Book Two will be done. Now, that's barring things like the kiddies getting sick (again), or me.  Or whatever.  But it's possible, and rather exciting, and I can't wait to share it with all of you.
