10/9/13
Out Now: Bloody Kiss, part of LT3’s Proud to be a Vampire Anthology.





Lis had been enjoying his school trip to Egypt until a statue came to life and drank his blood. Back home in Boston, nothing feels or tastes or smells quite the same, he’s plagued by strange dreams, and has a craving that nothing seems to satisfy—until the statue shows up again.

News: Visiting Friends, Writing, and A New Book Cover

9/22/13

I stopped by Top 2 Bottom reviews today to have a little chat. We had fun, so be sure to check out our conversation! They were also kind enough to review Road to Revenge and they gave it 4 kisses.


I have been writing a lot. Unfortunately, I have not been able to concentrate on just one story at a time. I wrote Magnified, which is a very odd short story. I went ahead and submitted it to LT3, so I’ll wait and see if they want it. I have also written a lot for The Red Apple Witch, a...

Writing: Old Stories and the Muse Bug

9/17/13

Way back in my writing days, before the Dragon’s Hoard was even a glimmer in my eye, there were stories that I wanted to write but just didn’t have the know-how to get the words onto paper properly. The characters and the plot were demanding too much from me and I couldn’t respond with a story that I felt proud of. Now, years later, my abilities as a writer have expanded and one of those old stories has been contracted by LT3 for their serial page. Paint, Guns, Money,...

News: End of Summer Writing Plans

Happy September everyone! I hope the end of summer treats you well. It’s certainly treating me well so far! Here’s all my good news:


First and foremost, yesterday was the very last day of my crazy summer job. I will suddenly have so much more time for writing that I don’t know what might happen. Hopefully I’ll be able to get a lot of books written in my Oracle series. I’m also planning on getting my Trickster’s Eye series off the ground, I need to kee...

Sonata – Giveaway

July 17th marked Sonata’s debut and I’m all kinds of excited about it. Romance, universal intervention, redemption and fulfillment, all carefully weighted with a “payment due on receipt” from Karma.

But while the novel may have strings as heavy as chains, this offer, I promise, comes with ones that are quite manageable …

The Giveaway:

To celebrate Sonata’s release, I’m offering up a signed, print copy of Sonata (free shipping, worldwide) and a brand new, sparkling an...
