Vampires Don’t Sparkle is coming!
The first draft is complete, and I’m almost done with edits. I’ll be sending it out to the beta list on Saturday. You can pre-order it over at iTunes right now, or purchase it on Amazon when it comes out. I’ve set it for a Halloween release!

Interviewed on the Author Biz
I was interviewed over on the Author Biz. It’s a great show I’ve been following for a while, and I really enjoyed chatting with Stephen. Take a peek if you’re curious!

My 2nd interview on the Rocking Self-Publishing Podcast is up!
RSP was the very first podcast about indie publishing I ever stumbled across. I’ve learned more there than any other single place, and if you’ve read one my books odds are good that never would have happened without RSP.
I was first on the show back in January, and just had my 2nd appearance. I can’t believe how far I’ve come in such a short time. Thank you all so much for the support, and for reading my books. Feel free to check out the interview if you’re so inclined =)

My interview on the Science Fiction & Fantasy Marketing Podcast is up
Last night I was interviewed by the team over at SFFM, and I had an absolute blast. Linday Buroker, one of the three hosts, is a long time idol of mine so it was surreal getting to talk to her on air.
Here’s the link if you’d like to check it out, or you can watch the video below:

Vampires Don’t Sparkle is up for pre-order on iTunes
This morning on my bus ride into San Francisco I passed the half way mark in the first draft of Vampires Don’t Sparkle. That’s always the most challenging part to write, and the second half I always breeze through.
To celebrate my mini-milestone I’ve put the pre-order up on iTunes. The blurb is just a placeholder, but for those who read on iTunes feel free to place your order =D
I’ll be sending out the completed draft to beta readers on July 31st, so if you’re on the list keep an eye out for it!

5,000 Words Per Hour is live on Amazon and iTunes
A couple months back I embarked on the rather ambitious plan to write a non-fiction book (my first), which would launch with a companion iPhone app. The amount of work that went into creating software that would perfectly dovetail with a book was challenging, but very rewarding.
Today both are finally live! You can download the book on either iTunes or Amazon, and the app is available here. I know most people who read my blog are into my fiction, but if you’re a writer give the app and book a look.
They’ve both worked well for the people who’ve tried them so far, and I’m hoping they’ll 
work for you too! Either way I have to admit I’m proud of what I’ve accomplished. =)

The final cover for Vampires Don’t Sparkle
Thank you all so much for the feedback! Almost a hundred people weighed in, and this is the final product (minus the book’s blurb which I’m still working on). Hope you guys like it as much as I do!

Predator: Dark Ages. You need to see this
Odds are good if you like my books you’re familiar with the Predator franchise. If you’re not, I highly recommend checking out Predator, Predator 2 and Predators. The first two movies are dated, but still a fun watch watch. Predators is more recent, and just as awesome in it’s own away.
I bring up Predator, because Predator Dark Ages was just released. This twenty-seven minute free movie has incredible production value, and some great characters. Those familiar with the franchise know that Predators have visited earth many times throughout history, and this movie examines what would have happened if they’d shown up during the middle ages. Check it out!

Help me design the cover for Vampires Don’t Sparkle
What do you guys think of the color? We’ve used red for NSTAW, green for NMZ and light blue for TFA. I figured purple might work, but I’m open to suggestions.
