Wayward Pines - The American Dream

I just published my first Kindle Worlds novella. It is a 69 page novella titled The American Dream. This novella is based off the wonderful novel, Pines, by Blake Crouch. Blake created a fantastic origins story with his novel Pines. I am anxiously awaiting the sequel that is coming out later this month, Wayward. Fox is producing a limited run series for Fox, Wayward Pines, based off Blake's novel. This series will star Matt Dillon as Secret Service agent Ethan Burke.

I stumbled across this little gem of a novel a few months ago after reading an article about how Fox was working on development for a new Twin Peaks style mystery series. I bought the novel Pines, read it and was particularly interested in the Afterward, where Blake talks about how Twin Peaks inspired the Pines novel.

I have spent twenty years as a fan of the Twin Peaks series and am now a fan of Blake Crouch and his Wayward Pines town. So I put fingers to key board and wrote my own Wayward Pines story, The American Dream. Kindle accepted this novella last night and now it is available to anyone who might have read the original novel, Pines and who are salivating for the sequel Wayward. I think that you'll find my novella a nice take on Blake's original invention. The novella is available thru amazon.com at $1.99.
