How to Make a Book Trailer
A still shot from the book trailer for Plague Master 1, but you don’t need to be afraid–book trailers are fun!
I have had recent experience making two book trailers, so I’m not an expert, but I thought that other newcomers might benefit from the research I had to do and go straight to practical steps.
This isn’t the only way to do it. It probably isn’t the best way to do it. What I can tell you, is that it will get you a trailer at a minimal cost and...

Book Trailer for Plague Master: Sanctuary Dome (book 1)
I get it. Perhaps you didn’t read Plague Master: Sanctuary Dome when it came out. It’s understandable–you can’t be everywhere and do everything. Even for those of you who read it, it might have been a while. Perhaps you have it mixed up in your memory with all the other dystopian sci-fi zombie books you’ve been reading.

Diabolical Plots: The First Years
I’m in a new anthology Diabolical Plots: The First Years edited by David Steffen.
When I first submitted to them, Diabolical Plots was a fledgling market on the rise. They quickly selected my story to appear in July 2015. It was their fifth story. I’m thrilled to see this collection and be part of their success.
Isn’t the cover beautiful? That’s an image from my story, “Not a Bird.” The story describes a weary mother and her feathered newborn. It touches on the hopes, wishes, and weight of pa...
