Cover Copy for The Making of Michael Bishop

So you’ve seen the cover and now you’re wondering just what this story is about. Allow me to enlighten you.

Keep your distance. Don’t look him in the eye. Feed him and leave.

Michael D’Augustino is a priest in the time of the Inquisition. Marked as weak for his refusal to torture those charged with sorcery, heresy, devil worship or worse, he’s given another task. Feed the prisoner in the cell in the darkest corner of the dungeon. With the edict comes a set of instructions.

Ever obedient, Michael does exactly as he is told. Until the night his charge doesn’t eat and Michael has to enter the cell to find out why. Instead of the beast he believes to be imprisoned there, he finds a man. A broken, tormented man who asks for help.

But all is not as it seems and, before the night is through, Michael will be changed forever.

News and updated Website

Hello Lovely people,

Sorry I’ve been gone but that’s because I have been generating more words for you to read. I have added a FAQ and Coming Soon tab to the website and updated some of the other pages, I also have a couple of pieces of news for you.

First, both books are available in print from Harlequin.com. There are links direct to both books on the My Books tab. There will not be another print run so get them while you can. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Second, I have a book signing coming up on August 9 at 1:00pm in Lee’s Summit, MO at Reader’s World bookstore. I will have print copies of both books available for purchase that day.

and yes, you will have more books and soon. I’m working on a schedule even as I write this.

Happy Reading!

Thought for the day…

I use tweetdeck to make my twitter feed easier to read. I also have columns set up on there to watch for people talking about my books, mainly so I don’t miss any awesome reviews. Anyway, someone recommended my books to someone today saying they were really, really good. Can I just tell you how happy this makes me? I love to hear about people I don’t know liking my stuff. I love to hear about them recommending the books to other people. I hope this feeling of genuine gratitude stays with me no matter how many books I sell. And that I never get past the point where one complimentary tweet can make my whole day. You guys rock! Thanks for reading my stuff. :)
