Been WAY TOO LONG
Hello folks.... I'm kinda ashamed to say, but I completely got away from Goodreads, and that was probably a mistake. Honestly, though, I got sidetracked for quite a while. It has been far too long since I have released anything new.
I have learned a lot since Grave Whispers. A lot. Life came along, kicked me, and then some.... and finally, I crawled back to a creative place. And boy, am I glad!
So..... keep posted. I am going to become much more active here. It is time to start using my time for Creative and Worthy pursuits.... rather than ranting on Facebook.
I do have a new project coming this OCTOBER. Spirits of Jerome will be released in Jerome, AZ and surrounding areas in October, and my new website will go live in the next month.
Lots happening..... stay posted.
Keep it Scary.

To all FANS !!!
Folks -
This is going to be a bit of a blunt letter. I don't want to seem greedy, not in the least, but I need your help. Very much!
Here is the bottom line with sites like this - they are great. Lots of fun, and people get to see your name
BUT
it is a whole lot easier to "make friends" than to actually get people to commit to buying your book.
As an artist - all artists actually - need support from a solid fan base in order to make a living doing what they love to do and providing your with material you love to read. I have never had these huge monumental aspirations to be a multi-millionaire (not that I would say no...) but to be able to make a humble living (say the same as my teacher's salary) it is going to take about 12,000 - 15,000 people buying my books.
How is this possible for a totally unknown new guy???
It is all about WORD OF MOUTH, YOU, TALKING TO FOLKS, MENTIONING MY BOOK, BRINGING FRIENDS TO EVENTS.
So....
I am doing a hugely important book signing at Changing Hands Book Store in Tempe, AZ on June 19th (Friday) at 7:00 PM. I need this signing to be a success. I need folks to show up. I need folks to buy books.
SO.....
If you have a copy of Grave Whispers - great. Come, ask questions, let's have an awesome discussion and BRING SOMEBODY WHO MIGHT ENJOY A HELL OF A READ !!!!!!
I need you...
Thanks
Ryan
