Cover Reveal: The Betrayal of Flynn Monroe
Look at what I've got!
The Blurb:
Flynn Monroe is used to taking abuse. Why else would he stand by and let his girlfriend rename his ship something as derivative the Lightning Bug? (He was perfectly happy with the Bloodless Warrior) When she brings him a job – one that isn’t on the level any way you spin it – he can’t help but wonder if she’s playing him for a fool. The problem

Friday Update
This week’s count is LOW. I blame it all on the fact I got an edited manuscript back and have thusly spent all of my writing time tidying and fixing.

When Things Don’t Go Exactly to Plan
So, initially, I planned to have THE BETRAYAL OF FLYNN MONROE up on Amazon by the end of September. Don’t go looking for it. That didn’t happen.
And then I changed my book page info to say “Late 2013.” That’s going to happen. I just don’t have a concrete date.
