Since 2014, my title Walter has been exclusive on Amazon. Just recently I took it off of Kindle unlimited so I could give it away for free. Mainly because Book two and three are set to launch in the coming months. So if you have never read the first book in my Walter series you can do so now. Get a Free copy of Walter: Book One

So, in honor of 30 reviews for my book Walter, I wrote a new description and I put the price at 99 cents. Book Two is coming out very soon. Here’s the new description. Walter never cared about his classmates. Until he was told he would never see them again. Walter has never fit in, and he has never really cared. When a mysterious man starts talking to him through his T.V. telling him that the…

The first short story in my Night Portals series is free today. So, a little background on this. I read Ray Bradbury’s Zen in the Art of Writing and was blown away when he said he wrote a story a week. So I said, I bet I can do a story a month… Well, I didn’t quite reach that goal, but I wrote 16 very quickly, and created Night Portals Season 1-2 Aida, the one that started it all is free today…

3 books that every writer should read

**DISCLAIMER** Some of the links in this post are affiliate links and I do earn a small commission from them. I would like to start by saying I purposely left, On Writing, by Stephen King out of this list. What is my reason? Because that book should be something that you have already read and love. It should be required reading for anyone who has ever put words on a page. What follows are three…

Thought provoking review and great Kindle Vella story!

Sample of my Kindle Vella Story, Chatsworth Manor

So, I have been writing an episodic story for Kindle Vella. It has been a process but it seems to be coming along. I only have four episodes done but the fifth is almost ready to be published. I figured it would be a good idea to share a piece of the first episode with you. I hope you enjoy and check out the episodes. By the way, the first three episodes are free to read. Read all of the…

I will never get rid of this cover

The story came quick almost like it had been sitting in my brain for years. I’d been wanting to publish my first piece of fiction on Amazon. Then I would be a full-fledged indie author. So, I wrote the short story in a day. Put together a cover using a picture of my wife and a ones and zeros graphic I found on a photo editor and yay! There you have it, folks. I know that it looks amateurish and…

The Wait is over. Book Two is here

Everything will be okay. The Man said so. So, after seven years I finally got around to writing the sequel to Walter. Walter is one of my most popular titles. It follows a thirteen-year-old boy who speaks to a person on the TV, that calls himself “The Man”. The man tells Walter that something is bad is coming and that he needs to prepare. No other book of mine has ever gotten the attention…
