Mateguas Island Edited!

Just got the final edit back on MATEGUAS ISLAND from my editor Kristina Circelli (http://www.circelli.info/) She says it "looks good". Will start going over it probably tomorrow (too tired today from removing 8-10 inches of snow from my driveway/deck!). Then it's on to have the interior formatted for the print version. I'm getting excited!

FYI - advanced reader copies of MATEGUAS are still available for free at http://argonpress.com/reviewers/. All we ask in return is an honest review.

Free Advanced Reader Copies!

Hi - Argon Press is providing, for a limited time, advanced reader copies of my novel, MATEGUAS ISLAND that can be downloaded in kindle or pfd format. All they ask in return, it that you provide an honest review of my work. If you are interested, go to
http://argonpress.com/reviewers/ and click on my book.

MATEGUAS is the story of Bill and Karen Andersen who are forced by circumstance to move to a remote island off the coast of Maine. Soon after arrival, Bill becomes embroiled in a tempestuous affair with a seductive local islander and Karen is beset by strange visions that make her fear for her sanity and the safety of her children and family.

Delving deep into the lore that surrounds her property, Karen must decide if she is strong enough to take up the mantle and step on the only path available to save her family - a path fraught with dark magic and peril.
