And Now For Writing Updates

We’ve all lived through some crazy things this past year. (Really, the past two years, but since I am way behind on posting book updates, that’s where I’m picking up.) My c-section baby is almost fourteen months old (and walking everywhere!!), and a couple of weeks ago my family marked the one-year anniversary of losing my dad. My children are older, bigger, and taller, and I can’t believe it’s been that long already.

I had a lot of plans for last year, most of which never happened. LOL! The best-laid plans of mice and men, as they say. (I’m sure most of you can relate.) Even without Covid craziness, life was chaotic.

On the bright side, throughout all the ups and downs and uncertainties of this fragile thing we call life, the Lord has enabled me to keep writing. Sometimes very slowly, but still… Forward progress is forward progress.

Release News: ‘Anniversary’

I’m excited to announce that I have a new short story available!

Anniversary began life as a story I sold to a really cool science fiction anthology last year right after my dad died. (Read the release news for that anthology here.)

You can read the story in Open Ended Threat: A Cave Creek Anthology, or you can get Anniversary by itself. Either way, I hope you enjoy!

Anniversary

Three years after Cally Pearson lost the love of her life to a freak car accident in the mountains of Nevada, the anniversary of that loss still hits her hard.

But Cally lives in a town called Cave Creek—and strange things happen in this town. The past, present, and future sometimes collide in unexpected ways. Sometimes—just sometimes—Cave Creek gives you a second chance.

A heartwarming time-travel romance short story, Anniversary keeps you reading to the very last page.

Open Ended Threat: A Cave Creek Anthology

This would be another area where I fell down on posting release news due to everything that happened in 2021.

Back in early 2021, I submitted a story I wrote for a really cool science fiction anthology trilogy about a fictional town called Cave Creek set in Nevada. The tagline was: If the Twilight Zone had a home town, it would be Cave Creek. The anthologies were set in the past, present, and future.

Well, the week after my dad died, I found out I’d sold the story to the anthology set in the present. That was an amazing blessing, particularly since my dad had been so encouraging about it.

The story is called Anniversary, and it appeared in Open Ended Threat: A Cave Creek Anthology, which was published in May 2021.

If you’d like to check the anthology out, you can find it here. If you’d like to see the other anthologies and the stand-alone novel that started the series, you can find them here.

Anniversary is also up in a stand-alone ebook edition. Read the release news here.

Happy reading!

Release News: ‘Old Wounds’

I’m rather behind on things as far as my website is concerned (can we all just agree 2021 was crazy and leave it at that?), but here is the official announcement that Old Wounds, the third book in my new Finder detective series, came out this past July. 

This series has been a ton of fun to write, and I hope you enjoy this third installment!

A Finder Novel

Old Wounds

Old sins seldom stay buried. Even in the vastness of space.

When a friend from Zyga Space Station Authority enlists Finder Vince Grable to investigate an unofficial kidnapping, Vince uncovers a mystery stretching back over a decade.

Some wounds run too deep to ever truly heal…and time only sharpens the desire for revenge. Vince and his android assistant Bella must race the clock to prevent tragedy.

Welcome to Old Wounds, the third page-turning installment in the noir-tinged space opera Finder series.
