Recent News and Updates.

It’s been a long time since I’ve made a blog post, I think almost a year. There are a number of reasons for this. The main one, I guess, is that I’ve been busy: busy in work and busy writing. I wrote a novel, but it got bogged down with plot ideas and rewrites—it took a lot longer to write than most of my novels do. Another viable reason for a prolonged absence on here is that I have not had much published since the beginning of last year; some short stories, but nothing of exceptional note. My absence has, in all probability, hurt me more than it has hurt any of my “friends” here on Goodreads.

This year, I plan to be here more often.

The main reason for that will be the release of my second full-length novel. It is due to come out in May 2011, although that date could be moved forward. The book is titled Blood War and it tells the horrific story of a centuries-old war between werewolves, vampires, and a new breed created by an unholy union of supernatural bloodlines. It promises to be my best work yet, and I hope that anybody who has read me before, and reads this new book, will agree. I’m currently going through the ARC making final edits.

There will be regular updates from now on about me the author and about me my books.

Those regular updates start now. My debut novel, Hosts, is now only available in print from amazon.com after I terminated my contract renewal with the book’s e-book publisher, Wild Child Publishing. This was done mutually, and I continue to support WCP in all their endeavors.

My futuristic novella, October Rain, is also unavailable in its current incarnation. As of January 31st 2011 the publisher, Sonar 4 Publishing, has terminated my contract with them. This is fine; I have no problems with it, as I plan to have it re-released sometime in the not-too-distant future, hopefully through another publisher.

In the meantime, keep reading, and I’ll keep writing.
