On Tuesday, this bad boy of a horror anthology gets released. It includes my story, “Home,” about a woman and her dog who move to a remote cabin in the woods. They definitely don’t encounter anything living in those woods. No, sir. Not at all…

Last look before animating.
One part I dig about being an action writer is researching firearm facts.
Today, for Frenzi 11, we researched just how silent the MAC-10 was.
Answer: gatdamn quiet with the proper suppressor!
This gun was also famously used in the meh John Wayne flick, McQ, without the famous Sionics suppressor.
For #backlistSaturday here's my short action novel, "Bainbridge", which you can get in this mass market paperback size on Amazon.
The story follows LAPD detective John Bainbridge in early 90s LA as he solves a criminal conspiracy that goes all the way to the top.

If exploding a helicopter was like making love to a beautiful woman, then this would be missionary position quickie.
From STRIKER (1987)
Seeing as how Scotland are playing tonight, I thought I might as well pap this one out.

Today was one of those crummy days away from the Day Job where nothing seemed to get done.
But I did write back cover copy for an upcoming title and any author who has had to write their own cover copy knows how tough that can be!
After hitting send on a sub call, I thought I’d write a post about deadlines…
For Pride, consider some sapphic samurai drama.
A bodyguard pining for her lord's wife. A warrior who loves her fallen rival. Two lovers holding each other as they make their last stand. A samurai facing magical peril in the name of love.
And more. Buy now!

I KNOW preorders are super important for books, but they're also not how consumers find products, so like... just remember the long tail.
People want to go into a place, pick up a thing, and enjoy it. Build more infrastructure around the period of time when readers can actually be consumers.
