My vampire story “Friends Don’t Let Friends be Undead” is officially available in print for the first time ever. You can also get the expanded story digitally on Kindle & Kindle Unlimited.

A story that one Amazon reviewer said is “A good old fashioned vampire tale.” A reviewer on Goodreads thought that “If you’re in the mood for an adrenaline rush, this is a good place to start.”

So, please grab a copy for something to put a chill in your blood on these long winter nights. You can find it by clicking on the cover below.

A new short story in time for Christmas

Hello faithful reader.

I asked Twitter a few weeks ago if I should write a story about a barbarian Santa Claus fighting Krampus. Well, the week of Christmas has arrived and as an early gift, I’ve written, edited, and built a cover for Kritz & the Krampus. At this time, it is only available on the Kindle for $.99.

Kritz Kringle is a mix of Santa Claus and Conan the Barbarian, which sounds weird and maybe it is. All I know is my beta readers said it was a lot of fun. You can read the synopsis below or pick up your copy here.

“A horned predator stalks the small folk that live at the top of the world. They whisper the name Krampus during the long hours of darkness. Desperate, they seek out a champion to defeat this monster. Kritz Kringle comes to their aid, dressed in red leathers with a war hammer in hand. If he can defeat this Krampus, what will he do about the dozens of them that are thirsting for blood?”

I’ve always enjoyed the sword & sorcery genre started by the late Robert E. Howard. I finally decided to try and write some.

I hope you enjoy. I’d also like to wish you the happiest of holiday seasons and brightest of new years. I’ll see you in 2022.

An apology, an update, and a new short story

Hello faithful reader. I am sorry for my delinquent blogging. I was a benefits administrator for my previous employer when Covid hit and as you can imagine my life got busy. I also had a baby, who has swiftly turned into a toddler. I am still writing, but I’m still learning to find my way in this new dynamic. So, I appreciate your patience with me.

I know a lot of you are curious about the Winston & Baum short story collection that I teased in 2019. I have the stories written and edited. As some of you are very fond of Winston & Baum, it will come as no surprise that members of my own family are also fans. One of my biggest fans was my Dad. He would reread the series at least twice a year and always tell me which book he was on. I lost my father in July of 2020 (not to Covid, but it sucks all the same). As such, I have been dragging my feet on this one. It’s the first one he won’t be able to read, and I’ve had trouble with that. I do apologize to those who have so patiently waited for this book. I promise it will be released, and I will keep you all posted through this blog and my various social media accounts as to when. Sorry to spill into my personal life, but I felt you all deserve the truth.

Now, on to more upbeat news, I do have a new short story that came out last month. It is a mix of Arthurian Legend & the C’thulhu Mythos. I know it sounds a little weird, and I am nothing if not a little weird (just ask the voices in my head). It is exclusively available for Kindle here. Below is the cover. So, if you are so inclined give it a read and leave a review.

That’s all for now. I have a few more things in the works that I’ll update as they get closer to release. As always, thank you for your patience and support.

Hey everybody, I wanted to let you faithful friends know what my fall schedule was looking like this year.

I will be at Dragoncon helping out in the Art Show over this coming Labor Day weekend.  Feel free to drop by, I will have copies of the Winston & Baum steampunk adventure books with me.

My last appearance this year will be on Saturday, September 7th at Next Chapter Con in Ringold, GA. Don’t worry, I’ll have all my books with me there.

I am currently working on the Winston & Baum anthology.  (I just got the first round of edits in) And will keep all of you guys informed on that progress.  My wife and I are expecting our first child this October, so my schedule is going to be a little off, but we are hoping to be back next year with even more shows to get out and meet everyone.

Thanks friends!

Taking Something Old and Making It New

I just finished reading What the Hell Did I Just Read? the third entry in the John Dies at the End series.  You can read my review of it over on Goodreads.com here.  (Just on a side note for those of you who are avid readers, I suggest you check out Goodreads.)

This series could very well have been a very straight forward cosmic horror set of books.  As a fan of cosmic horror, I have no issues with that.  Instead, David Wong manages to take cosmic horror and by using the lens of his characters and narrators create something that stands alone.  It is not a standard HP Lovecraft pastiche with the usual imagery that we have come to expect from such fare.

David Wong and John Cheese are by no means your usual “heroes” or even protagonists for this type of tale.  Far from scientists or explorers, the less than dynamic duo are slackers with a penchant for narcotics.  This is how they are introduced to Soy Sauce, which is where the adventure begins.

Despite the humor found throughout these books, making me laugh out loud at times, the horror is still very much present.  These books walk a fine line between the ludicrous and disturbing.

The John Dies at the End series is definitely not a book series that I would recommend for everyone, but if you want to see how things can be done differently.

Click on the covers below to pick up the John Dies at the End series.

Book 1

Book 2

Of course, HP Lovecraft is the most well-known in the cosmic horror genre.  You can click on the tome below for a the complete works of this master.

Just a quick update about the things that I’m working on.  I am currently going through a short story collection set in the Winston & Baum universe.  I have the drafts back with notes from my initial readers, but that takes time.

I am also currently working on a screenplay with a filmmaker, but I can’t say a whole lot about that right now.  When I can, I assure you I will.  I’m super-psyched about it.

I still have a whole lot of stories to tell and am trying to capture them on paper as quickly as I can.  Stay tuned for more updates, and tell me what stories did unique things in the comments.

Thanks, and I’ll visit with you all soon.

Farleycon is this weekend

This weekend on April 13th, I’ll be at Farleycon in East Ridge, TN.  It promises to be a fun time for everyone with a great line up of authors, artists, and vendors.

If you can come by and say hey, pick up an autographed book or just hang out.  Either way it promises to be a good time.

Hope to see you in East Ridge this Saturday.

Keep checking back for updates on where I’ll be appearing and what I’m up to.

Connooga is behind us, River Region is right ahead

Connooga 2019 was a blast.  Got to see some great cosplay, take part in some fun panels, and hang out with my con buddies.  All in all, it was a great weekend.  Big thanks to everybody that came by and said hey and picked up a book.  Hope you are all enjoying the read and can’t wait to see you all again next year.

My next show is going to be River Region Comiccon.  This show will be held in beautiful Montgomery, Alabama March 16-17.  I know that is St. Patty’s Day and don’t worry, I’ll have a Green Lantern shirt just for the occasion.

While I’m on the subject of cool things.  I recently found a Kickstarter from two of my favorite Superman creators from the 80/90s.  It’s a retro-weird science/monster comic that promises to be a lot of fun.  Check it out here.

Looks fun to me.

Hope to see you guys down in Montgomery and keep checking back to see where I’ll be appearing next and what’s in the works.

My schedule for Connooga

This weekend, I will be attending Connooga in Chattanooga.

This is a great convention with lots of fun panels and vendors.  I will be selling my books in their vendor room, alongside my wife and cover artist.

However, I also will be participating in a few of their panels.  First, at 4:00PM on Friday, I will be on the Scary Story Time panel where several writers will tell true or fictional tales that will keep you up.  Saturday at noon, I will be hosting a Phantasm 40 Year Retrospective.  These are both going to be fun events that I hope you can stop by at.  If not, please swing by my booth and say hello and pick up your copies of either the Winston & Baum steampunk adventure series or Friedkin’s Curse: A Werewolf Tale of Terror.

Hope to see you at Connooga this year.

Please keep checking back to see where else I will be appearing this year.
