Susannah-Mio and the Case of the New Writing Projects

Happy Sunday! If you're wondering where Susannah-Mio comes from, it's because I'm reading Stephen King's Song of Susannah and he keeps calling the character "Susannah-Mio," which pretty much guarantees that as long as I'm reading that book I'm hearing Hank Williams in my head singing "Jambalaya," where he butchers the Cajun endearment "ma chers amies" (I don't know how to do accent marks in Blogger!) as "ma cher amio." And since I have to hear it in my head, so do you:

Now, I'm going to be a...

Oh, Susannah...

Still waiting for a few details to wrap up, but I'm going to be crazily busy this fall, so stay tuned!

I can say with some certainty at this point that there will not be a follow-up to Storm Force, sadly. I will have definitive news on Penton 4 (good news!) this week, and news about a new project I'm really, really, really (really!) excited about.

The process of consolidating my three websites is also about to begin. So the site here, the one at suzanne-johnson.com, and the Preternatura blog wi...

Wherefore Art Thou, Susannah-Mio?

Sorry to have been absent lately, but there is method to the lack of madness. I'm in the process of figuring out how to integrate my multiple personalities. So at some point in the next month or so, I hope to start migrating my three sites (suzanne-johnson.com, susannahsandlin.com, and the Preternatura blog) into a single site. Figuring out how to not make the blog followers re-follow is the current challenge.

In the meantime, Susannah has much in the works she still isn't at liberty to talk a...

Deliverance....Deliverance

I thought I would have an announcement today but...not yet. Back-room deals and strategizing and waiting. Hm. Sounds like a thriller plot. Stay tuned! Thanks to all of you who helped me get the word out about STORM FORCE being the Kindle Daily Deal on Friday. It made it up to #24 in the Amazon Kindle store!

A Minor Update and Such

Hope to have something new to announce in the next week or so, which is likely to be a combination of good news/bad news. But that's how it goes in this business, right?

In the meantime, I'm working on what I'm calling the "Twist on a Twist" project and hope to have those details soon...maybe by the weekend.

Stay tuned!

There's Alpha...and then there's ALPHA

Happy Sunday! I'm going a little retro today and de-archiving some of my guest posts. Today is a look at Aidan Murphy, the hero of Redemption, first in the Penton Vampire Legacy series. Aidan has been overshadowed by his more outgoing (i.e., louder) lieutenants Mirren and Will.

But without Aidan, there would be no Penton. It was his vision, after all. His idea of helping human addicts and people with downwardly spiraling emotional issues, and sometimes offe...
