A preview of Hands Of Clay.
I wrote Hands Of Clay because I felt like there should have been a story after Grinding My Gears. This book falls after Grinding My Gears but before 2:05 a.m. An Ice Era Chronicle. This book was never published with Troll River, but it is out in the world. You can go to http://www.authorcmmoore.com and there is a button that takes you to this book. Here is a part of the first chapter.

Back in the mountains…
I am almost done with my In The Mountains books so I got to thinking about how sad I was to leave my fun fictional mountain men… and then I thought… maybe I won’t. So here is a preview of the first book in this next set of four. I am not sure what I will be doing with this work yet, but once I figure it out, you will be the first to know.
Tapping snow off his tennis shoes, Rand entered the…

A preview of my In The Mountains Books…
Kit strode into his twin brother’s hospital room. The spacious, clean tiled suite on the top floor of the downtown hospital reflected their money. The private area also reflected his brother’s status as a movie star. Of course, there was one thing that money couldn’t buy. That was good health. “What happened?” Kit asked instead of offering a greeting to either his brother or his brother’s…

Alien Love Series.
Because my Ice Era Chronicle books were being published so slowly, I started writing about aliens. At the time, I didn’t really have a plan. I was just killing time with this work. But as a lot of my stories do, this one evolved. Before long, one story became two and so on. The Alien Love Series has four stories complete now. But when it is finished, it will be a five-story collection. The first…

Back to the Holidays!
Back to the Holidays!
When I moved to Georgia and I was far from my extended family in Minnesota, I felt like the holidays weren’t the same. However, now that I have been here for over two years, I am starting to get into the groove of Georgia. One of the things I love best about being here is the light snow on the mountain during the holiday months. Everyone in town wears mittens and hats, and they all look like they…

November.
Things I have learned about writing.I was sitting in the movie theater watching a scrolling advertisement. I’m fairly sure you might’ve seen what I’m describing. This particular slide show had all sorts of businesses that were featured in the area, and sadly not one of the slides was done well. As I sat there correcting with a red pen in my head, I thought about all the mistakes I made in the…

June.
My thoughts on James Bond’s villain henchmen.I was shopping in a mall because here in Georgia malls are kind of rare, so I ended up in one and found all the James Bond movies.Naturally, the next step was to watch them all in order and rate which James Bond is the best. I’m a Rodger Moore fan, but I’ll be honest, it’s because he has a great last name. Anyway, about halfway through movie number…

A lesson from Liz.
When I moved here to Georgia, I had no friends. I will say that I still have very few, but I have been making one or two as I have gone along. One of the first people I met when I moved to Butternut Lane was named Liz. She had just moved to Georgia shortly after I did, and she was a little older (in her late forties) and she was smart (an English major) and she was funny…
