Both Letters from a Middle-Aged Ninja and Shelley on the Edge of Wonder are with beta readers, so I'm waiting for their feedback to guesstimate release dates. The first is a series of life lessons gleaned from my years in martial arts, and the second is a biography of my mother's travels in the 1950s. I anticipate both will be released before mid September.

Super clever premise. An expert ghost is coming in to help out a struggling haunt scare his mark. But disorganized artist types are not easy to rattle. Very charming and funny. It would make an adorable Halloween short film.

“Jane looked up at her friend and smiled. “You are a genius! Now rinse and spit.” She dove into the water. “I gotta go see a man about a horse.”

“And the kingdom was very peaceful indeed. This, however, was not due to any brilliant reigning philosophy constructed by her father, King Abnegolde, or any skill he had in creating a functional bicameral legislative body made up of representatives from the peasant farmers', blacksmiths', woodcutters' or millers' guilds.”
