A Bestseller?!? How could that be?
Well, that’s good news…. (My book is coming out on the USA TODAY bestseller list tomorrow) #128 – I’ll take it. Thanks to everyone who helped! Okay, I might be smiling – but don’t tell anyone. Ugh – now I have to update my book covers to reflect that.

Latest update on Primordial Threat
Well, it’s been a whirlwind of a promotion. So much so, that I’ve gotten literally thousands of new readers this week, for which I’m very grateful. On Amazon, I’ve hit pretty much all of the #1 categories my book is listed in, both for Kindle and the Audiobook. In fact, I’m currently sitting at #9 […]

As you might have seen from my prior post, I have my debut Science Fiction novel on sale for $0.99. So far, it has been really well received. I hit #1 in Amazon’s Hard Science Fiction category, along with Military Science Fiction and a couple others. Heck, while this was happening, I received a long-awaited […]

Here are two example covers for upcoming novels. I’m still waiting to hear back from publishers, but in the meantime, here is what I envisioned. I’d be curious what you guys thought.

Test – Can you see this post?
I’m trying to figure out whether or not Facebook blocks/filters posts from my web site. Do you guys see this? I’d like to start posting from my site (for book-related things) because it allows me to multi-cast to various social media venues at once.

I have been goofing around with some visual art stuff…
As you all likely know (see above on web site), I have some titles on submission to publishers. To maintain sanity between submissions, most would-be authors should be writing, and that’s largely what I’ve been doing–except recently–I worked with an artist to mock up what a book cover might look like for one of the […]
