Give Me Your Tired, Your Poor… Your Best!?

In the days leading to this Fourth of July celebration, a certain presidential candidate made remarks regarding immigration and how a certain nation to our south doesn’t send us “their best.” While those remarks have gotten him in substantial hot water, perhaps because I don’t hail from said country, but one a few hundred miles […]

Make sure you join my Reader’s Club to get the other free stories I offer to my subscribers, and to get further notifications regarding the release of Blood Track and future stories! […]

Tracking Jane: Foreword to Tracking Shadow, in Her Own Words

If you’re like me, you want to get right to the story. Never mind all the self-important ramblings an author feels compelled to inject before she gets rolling. Like she’s nervous the story isn’t ready to start, or needs some preamble explanation. None of that here, but I won’t fault you none for skipping the […]

Review: Murder out of the Blue, by Steve Turnbull

If you can’t put up with a story that doesn’t start with a bang and careens forward without letting you catch your breath, you might not deem Steve Turnbull’s Murder out of the Blue worth the trouble. You might start on the first few pages and think nothing is happening. Except something is. The rich, […]

#SocialMedia: Are We All Suffering From ADD Now?

First things first: I do not mean with this article to belittle or ridicule those who struggle with real Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). Rather, I wish to ponder why those of us blessed to not face that disease day after day would self-impose a way of living that diminishes, if not destroys, our ability to […]

#SaturdayScenes: Decisive Moment, Chapter 6

Through this weekend, I’m running a Decisive Moment promo. To give you a taste for this quirky, fast-paced story, I will post samples of the first few chapters as part of my usual #SaturdayScenes weekly sharing. Let me know what you think! Chapter 6 Jimmy’s ranting dies down on its own, a good thing because […]

Review: Scarlet Angel by C.A. Wilke

Scarlet Angel by C.A. Wilke is the kind of story where one should hold on for dear life with little concern or notice for what transpires on the periphery. For the parts where it delivers the blistering, action-based pace that maintains unrestrained reader compulsion to keep turning pages, it works rather well. Overall, in spite […]

Three Take-aways from My First Year as an Indie Author

Too busy with my writing, the one year mark since I indie-published my first novel, DEAD BEEF, came and went, and I failed to commemorate it. It’s been a crazy year (plus a month and a half now). I released two short story collections, and launched two series of novels and novellas. I would mention […]

#SaturdayScenes: Decisive Moment, Chapter 5

What does an author do when he wants more folks to read one of his favorite stories? Well, this one gives it away… at least the first bits of it. Because I want you to read them. Through this weekend, I’m running a Decisive Moment promo. To give you a taste for this quirky, fast-paced […]

Next Tracking Jane Episode on Track for Release

Comments from Beta readers have started to trickle in. Though I haven’t sorted through all of them, so far so good! Along with a couple of revision and edit runs I’m doing, Blood Track should be ready to come out late this month, or most probably, early July. Keep checking here to see when it […]
