New Edition of Germline!

But only for those of you who speak Polish. In July, 2014, Fabryka Slow, Poland, is releasing the first international translation of any of my books; they're putting out a new edition of Germline!! Exogene and Chimera to follow soon after... http://paranormalbooks.pl/2014/05/21/...

YouTube

I'm taking the YouTube plunge and putting together my first video! Hopefully it will be part of a series where i talk about writing, inspirations for books/stories, the background on some of my books/plots, and updates on current projects. And my puppies. It will have lots of puppies and dogs playing. I suspect that the dogs will get more attention than me.

I hate blogging so maybe this will work better for me - and the dogs. Stay tuned.

Free Fiction!

For the next three days, my short story "Somewhere it Snows" is available as a free kindle download at Amazon. After that, if you're a prime member, it will be available to borrow/lend for free. Enjoy. http://www.amazon.com/Somewhere-Snows...

Update

I need to come here more often. In case you missed it, there's a link below to what I've been doing. This week, my agent begins sending out my most recent book (a YA mainstream novel) to publishers, so let's hope it sells! :)
