Dark, soulful tales that haunt long after the last page.
I just wanted to say that I’ve made the decision to honor my contracts with Bad Moon Books. I asked Roy some pointed questions that I believe he answered honestly and fairly. Based on that, the fact I’ve already signed the deals, and … other things I’ve learned, I will not be pulling my books.…
Just recording last night’s progress. 2,893 / 60,000(4.8%)
I got an e-mail from Roy Robbins, publisher at Bad Moon Books, today. I’m forced to make a decision, and I’m not sure which way to go. To put it in perspective, Bad Moon is slated to publish Little Graveyard on the Prairie this fall and The Prometheus Syndrome in April 2010. He sent the…
Finally! After two false starts I have a beginning I really like for The Girls Nobody Wanted to Date. One chapter done and a little on another. 1,497 / 60,000(2.5%) Today was interesting in my creative writing class.

One of my complaints about the Horror Writers Association has always been that the organization does very little to promote individual members who pay $65 a year in dues. As my three-year term as an HWA trustee winds down, I’m proud to say that’s been changed quite a bit. In large part that’s because President…
I was messing around with Windows Movie Maker and decided to make another book trailer. Unfortunately, I can’t embed it in WordPress. So, here’s a link.
