Free Thriller!
I have made my thriller, Crossing Over FREE for today (1-26-23) and tomorrow. Just go to the book's link on Amazon.
Crossing Over explores what a 2nd American civil war would be like for an average family. Not a prepper's manual, a novel about survival... and its costs. Read more of this blog post »

"My branch library recently had a display of dystopian novels. I'd read most of them, but not Legend. Another YA book in the same genre came my way last month (Feed), and that one was very good. I was ready for more.

“I looked out my window. We were cruising above a plateau of shaving cream clouds. That bothered me; I didn’t like not being able to see the ground. A missile could be racing up at us right now. I looked over at my two friends. They were talking excitedly about something, and that made me feel better. Friends are the key, I think. If you have good friends, you can get through anything, even Vietnam.”

I recently finished the second of McCarthy's 'Border' Trilogy (drat, I can't remember the title; the first was 'All the Pretty Horses'. I love his Southwest/Mexican stuff. But I'm taking a break from that and I just jumped into Valis by Phillip K. Dick. What are you reading?
Thanks for the add! I look forward to discussing books with you!
Don't forget to vote! Just wanted to let every one know that the Goodreads Choice Awards were excepting nominations. They have a 'historical fiction' category. Just sayin'
I just wanted to let all my peeps know that my book, White Seed, is featured today on Instapundit. Check it out at:http://pajamasmedia.com/instapundit/1...
White Seed on fire!!! White Seed: The Untold Story of the Lost Colony of Roanoke, went from no. 3,000 (which is not bad, considering there are over 60 k books on there) to no. 111 in the Kindle Book store. Perhaps someone gave it a good post or review somewhere, but this is astounding news for an old mid list writer like myself. This month, so far, White Seed has sold 333 copies in Kindle. Check it out!
