New York Times and USA Today bestseller

While growing up, I read voraciously and the books I loved best tended to have a theme…

…girl surviving with her family on the Old West frontier.

…stowaway on a sailing ship who had to survive a crew mutiny.

…girl surviving on her family’s farm after nuclear event.

So I decided to try writing more stories like the ones I loved and (fast forwarding several decades of creative angst, painful learning, self-doubt, and lots of hard work) last week, because of your help–

Dark Humanity (featuring GERMINATION, Book 1) hit…

#5 on the New York Times Best Seller’s list

#6 on Amazon US overall

#8 on USA Today Best Seller’s list

Thank you to everyone who checked out the boxed set, and of course to the 20+ hard-working Science Fiction and Fantasy participating authors, and to those who went above and beyond to share Dark Humanity with their friends. This is a dream come true!

Giveaway – Heroes & Heroines with Heart

As soon as I heard about the theme for this giveaway I had to sign up–because of Mary in GERMINATION (Book 1).

Mary is tough on the outside. My money would be on her in any fight, especially if she was protecting another runaway.

But inside?

That’s a different story.

Inside, she has a whole lot of heart, and she knows it.

All that heart makes her vulnerable, which is never a good thing on the street. So she spends a lot of time trying to hide that part of herself from the world.

(And for those who have read GERMINATION, there is a rather horrific sort of pun about hearts that’s happening right now in this post…)

Anyways.

In this giveaway, you’ll get a chance at a prize (iPad mini) AND a group of authors will deliver a bunch of awesome books on the same theme to your inbox.

FYI – It’s a lot of cool books, but also a lot of emails. Of course, you can unsubscribe at any time and those emails contain free books!

So what’s the theme of this giveaway?

Heroes and Heroines with Heart

To get the books (and a chance to win an iPad mini) select the “Sci-Fi Fantasy Books” option when you enter the giveaway.

Make sure to enter soon! The giveaway CLOSES in two days.

(FYI – the first graphic below the giveaway shows you the cover art for the Sci-Fi Fantasy books in the Heroes and Heroines with Heart giveaway. Enjoy.)

That’s all I have for this year! May you and yours have a happy New Year. Look for big things from me in 2017, including a new book (or maybe two)!
