First Novel Published!

Yesterday, my first novel (and 10th book) DEATH WATCH was published. Beyond excited. Though it was only four years ago I knew it would be a book, the world of DEATH WATCH has been with me a LONG time. From my strange, dark, seventeenth year, to all the days I ditched school to wander the cemeteries of Los Angeles, to all the books of weird and wondrous funereal lore I've sought out....this book has been waiting a long time to be born. And now, here it is between two covers. Amazing.

I have put lots of DEATH WATCH-y things up on my website to peruse: the book's first chapter, several quotes of an antiquarian nature from the book itself, photos that I used for reference in creating Lichport, the town where the story takes place, and a bunch of AWESOME reviews that I am so, so, grateful for. All that and more can be found here:

Enjoy!
