MEET ME IN LACUNA'S POINT

Today is a big day. BIG. My new novel, LACUNA'S POINT has hit the streets and I can’t begin to tell you how excited I am to have this book out in the wild. I started working on it at the beginning of 2020, a couple of months before the pandemic hit, just before we all went on lockdown. The majority of the first draft was written when I wasn’t working the day job, between the beginning of March and the end of May. It changed so much from the initial idea (what was supposed to be a YA novel), and the events of 2020 really shaped the way this novel turned out. I think if you read it, take the trip to Lacuna’s Point, you’ll be able to pick up on these real-life inspirations.

A huge shoutout to DarkLit Press for taking this novel on (and TruBorn Design for that amazing cover!). It’s no slim read. Not quite as big as MALIGNANT SUMMER. Not sure I’ll ever write anything as big as that again (although the fantasy novel I wrote last year is begging for sequels a la GoT or WoT). But this one clocks in at a whopping 128k words. It’s big. Immersive. Has a large cast. And the town itself is perhaps the biggest character of them all. Think SILENT HILL meets PLEASANTVILLE.

Don’t just take my word for it. Clay McLeod Chapman, author of GHOST EATERS and WHAT KIND OF MOTHER had this to say about it: "Tim Meyer gets under your skin and simply no amount of scratching will ever extract him. Lacuna's Point is a rest area rendered by M.C. Escher and Lovecraft on a road trip straight to hell."

If you’d like to purchase LACUNA’S POINT, it would mean everything to me. Here’s a link tree where you can buy it from your favorite bookish retailers: https://lnkj.in/p/lacuna

Cheers!
