Darkness ad Infinitum News!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Villipede has just released its table of contents on their website.  SO EXCITING to see my name listed there!!!  Tentative release date scheduled for October 2013.  I"M SO EXCITED!!!

Below is the info from their website, or view it HERE:

VILLIPEDE TO RELEASE FIRST HORROR ANTHOLOGY

Scheduled for an October 2013 release, Villipede Publications' first horror and dark speculative fiction anthology, Darkness Ad Infinitum, will tenderly caress your amygdalae and viciously twist your imagination. With fifteen short stories and four poems from both established and upcoming authors, this haunting collection will force readers to reevaluate their thoughts on what darkness really is: something we're all born of yet perpetually trying to flee; a malevolent force that desires our servitude or destruction—or something that simply wishes to lock us in its cold, scaly, fathomless grip. Or perhaps, even, it's an asylum for our jittery minds and confused heartsa place of solace where humans may patiently inspect their primal natures and desires . . . a place where the barriers between monster and man begin to shift and break down.
The authors' origins span the breadth of the globe: the UK, Greece, Australia, Sweden, the US—and their stories are just as diverse. While the styles and subject matter of the stories may differ greatly, what is consistent is the dedication each author has harnessed to create unique fiction and scenarios of bewitching caliber.
This October, holding Darkness Ad Infinitum in your hands, you may find yourself faced with a simple ultimatum: Do you turn around and embrace the darkness of your own free will . . . or will it embrace you first?

Happy Release Day!








CONGRATULATIONS to my dear friend, Catherine Peace!!  Her debut novel, This Time Next Year, just went live on Amazon yesterday! HUZZAH!!  I'm SO EXCITED FOR HER!!!

Here's the blurb about This Time Next Year from Amazon:



Vampire Kiernan Shaw has never forgotten the night twenty years ago when he’d been forced to stand by while another vampire killed a six-year-old girl’s parents in front of her. He’s spent the better part of the last two decades watching over her, protecting her and hoping for an opportunity to make amends one day.

Ever since surviving the vampire attack that killed her parents, Moira Curran has dealt with the resulting nightmares and abandonment issues the only way she could—by throwing herself into her biochemistry career, preferring a life of a hermit in her lab to facing the reality of her lonely life.

Madame Eve brings them back together for one fateful night. An immediate bond of sizzling chemistry and respect forms, but can it heal her fears and his guilt?



YAAAAAAY! Everyone go buy it!  Buy it now! :D
