Today is the big day! After 4 years of writing and revising, my first Young Adult novel, 'Endzone' is finally here! But don't let the phrase Young Adult fool you. This book is for everyone who loves football but hates what it's become. 12 year old Billy Watkins has loved football his entire life. When a pro player befriends him it seems like his dream has come true. But when that player gets injured, Billy is exposed to the dark side of the game. From drugs and shady deals to the commissioner of the Professional Football Association and his lies, to kneeling players, Billy decides he's had enough and tries to do something about it. https://geni.us/rQP2bDZ Get it now at its introductory launch price! |
Last chance to get a free Advance Reader Copy of my newest novel, 'Endzone' before it launches next week.

But when that player gets injured, Billy is exposed to the dark side of the game. From drugs and shady deals to the commissioner of the Professional Football Association and his lies, to kneeling players, Billy decides he's had enough and tries to do something about it.' https://booksprout.co/arc/45694/endzone |
Happy to announce the release of my newest short horror collection, 'Fragments of Fear 5'. https://geni.us/AlLeLu |
Not sure where to start with this. First off, I know I haven't been around much lately, there's several good reasons for that. The biggest of which is that I've been signed by a publisher to release my first crime novel! Their editor and I are about to dive into the manuscript and make it worthy of publication. Next reason is that I've been working on my self-published horror anthologies. The first of which is currently free of Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Fragments-Fear-Twenty-terror-thrill/dp/1536927082/ref=sr_... The second one I just released two days ago. https://www.amazon.com/Fragments-Fear-second-serving-terror-ebook/dp/B01LBXLE0E/... The third one I hope to have out by Halloween. At some point I hope to return to WDC in a more active capacity, but for now know that I have greatly appreciated all of your reviews, birthday wishes, and messages. Thank you all! |
My short horror anthology, 'Fragments of Fear' is free on amazon until midnight tonight. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CRZMEB8?*Version*=1&*entries*=0 |
It's interesting to note that sometimes stress breeds creativity and sometimes stress destroys creativity. It all depends on the source of the stress. |
Excellent observation, friend. For me it's mostly the latter, hence my impending hiatus. Normally I'd say it's a mix of stress and relaxation that offers me the most comfortable creative environment. Too stressed out and I forget that I can even write. Too relaxed and I wonder why I'd try to harsh my buzz by writing. It's that's elusive certain ratio of positive and negative that dictates my success :) . |
