JUST OVER A MONTH AGO, right after I landed in Santiago, Chile for a week-long business trip, I received word that my sixth novel, NightWhere, had made the final ballot for this year’s Bram Stoker Awards. What a great way to start a long trip, right? I was obviously pretty…
YESTERDAY MORNING, I woke up expecting to log onto my computer to find that my e-book sales had quieted after a month of excitement. Amazon.com had been featuring The 13th and Sacrifice at $2.99 throughout January, but I knew when those went off sale at midnight on Jan. 31… things…
IT’S HARD TO BELIEVE, but it was 10 years ago that Twilight Tales Books in Chicago issued my 2nd collection of short fantasy and macabre stories, Vigilantes of Love. A decade ago! Since Twilight Tales is no longer around, to celebrate the anniversary, I’ve gone back and retooled the cover,…
IT’S TRULY A “Lucky ’13″… at least so far. Amazon has picked my 2nd and 3rd novels, Sacrifice and The 13th, to feature in their January 2013 “hot 100” list! They’ve put both e-books on sale for just $2.99, so if you haven’t gotten these yet, I hope you’ll grab…

… Jason Darrick! On Halloween night, I pulled Jason’s “Show Us Your Night Wear” contest entry out of the Great Pumpkin, and so tonight I’ve boxed up an autographed trio of NightWhere, Siren and The 13th for him. Congratulations, Jason, and thanks to everyone who entered! Happy Halloween!
WHEN I FIRST turned in the manuscript for my sixth novel NightWhere last fall to Don D’Auria, my editor at Samhain Publishing, he suggested that I consider changing the title. “NightWhere,” he said, “kind of sounds like it might be the lingerie floor at a department store!” Or something to…
TONIGHT IS THE OFFICIAL RELEASE PARTY for my sixth novel, NightWhere. Huge thanks to everyone who has helped spread the word about the book’s release this week on Facebook and Twitter. And I hope some of you will be able to come down to Horrorbles horror and sci fi memorabilia…
MY BACKLIST, THAT IS. And I can’t tell you how happy I am about that. Today I can proudly say, “My ass is Amazon’s!” When I signed my first paperback book deal with Leisure Books, the premier imprint for horror novels five years ago, I never imagined that the company…
