They say a picture is worth a thousand words (though I’ve been known to say ). Well, here’s one that is worth about 113,000 – at least to me. That’s how long my upcoming novel, Through the Viscera is and this is the cover. If the word “viscera” doesn’t ring a bell it’s probably because it’s …
So yesterday I talked about the upcoming nightstand book series which will be happening monthly and today I’ve got another new series or meme or column or whatever you’d like to call it. This one will be a weekly affair. And, in case you missed the big gigantic title at the top of this post …
I’ve been talking back and forth recently with fellow author Jenelle Schmidt about doing some cross-blog kinds of posts.

Just a few updates today. First off, Through the Viscera, has been sent off to my line editor. I’m so grateful to finally be at this point.

Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson My rating: 4 of 5 stars If you’re looking for authentic pirate adventure, I can’t think of a better book to recommend than Treasure Island. Stevenson has the jargon down pat and really makes you feel like you’re part of the crew. For the most part, the journey is …
Huzzah! This is my 100th post! I don’t think too many people have been around since my first one, but if you have, let me know. I will send you a medal (or at least a piece of artwork). To celebrate, I thought I’d share a little more light-hearted fun. In the same vein as last …
