Dark, soulful tales that haunt long after the last page.
A few weeks ago I got an e-mail asking if I’d be interested in a promotion of my novel Shara. All I had to do was recommend five other werewolf books. I hadn’t heard of the person, or the organization he founded, but I looked them up and found out that Shepherd.com was a legitimate…
Twenty years ago, the now-defunct 3F Publications released my debut novel, Shara, which soon became part of The Werewolf Saga, and for a while I enjoyed the status of “the werewolf guy” among horror authors. Ten years ago, to make sure my dealing with Scrybe Press would end, I killed off most of the Saga’s…
About 20 minutes ago I reached the end of chapter 29 on a novel I’m not calling First Born. That put me at 50,258 words, which made me a winner of NaNoWriMo for the third straight year. It’s been an interesting and enlightening month of writing and reading and listening to podcasts about marketing. When…
Today through Halloween you can get the Kindle edition of my short story collection Unholy Womb and my novella Murdered by Human Wolves absolutely free at Amazon.

Of course, back then it was pretty dang expensive, unless you got tied up with a…
Stone Thread Publishing has my novella Inheritance up for pre-order on the Smashwords site. You can reserve your copy right here. It will be available through Amazon’s Kindle on the April 1 release date. Also, issues between Stone Thread and Apple have been resolved, so it will be available in that format, too. But I could…
It’s been a long time since I posted anything here. Not much has happened that is newsworthy, really. The biggest thing is that Amara’s Prayer has finally been released. I got my contributor copies a few days ago. It looks amazing. I’m pretty nervous about the reception it’ll receive, it being my first full-length novel without…
This weekend only MoonHowler Press is offering my Kindle short story story collections for free through Amazon.com. This is in an effort to drum up some reviews and sort of launch the books. You don’t have to review to get the freebies. Nor do you have to have a Kindle; there’s an app for that…
