        Some authors don't live with cats. I don't understand this, but to each their own. The problem arises when they put cats in their story only because their target audience likes cats, but with little experience, they don't know how to write them. Magic and vampires are one thing. A cat that isn't freaked out after sudden, violent, vampire chaos breaks immersion. They're living beings, not just fur-niture.

          Weekly Update #247

          Hello Readers.

          I’m starting my third week of not smoking and the patches are holding up well. I do have the occasional urge to smoke, but a hard candy is helping with that.

          Just before starting this update, I took a quick walk around my neighborhood and came across this:

          Isn’t it just cute! Makes me feel good every time I see one in an unexpected place.

          During this past week, I made some good progress towards “Death and a Dog.” I’m about two-thirds done with it so hopefully, I’ll have the draft done this coming week.

          The last couple days I’ve spent working on some templates for some new marketing for my books. Now with the first major template done, I should be able to start updating my marketing pics.

          That is it for this week, take care everyone.


          Don’t forget: My Time Among the Elves is available for pre-order.

          Interesting in buying one of my books? You can get more information here.
          You can support my writing at Ko-fi.

                                                  Just caught up on the Winter 2024 edition of Fantasy & Science Fiction. A mixed bag, with some excellent stories and poems. 'Do Not Haste To Bid Me Adieu' by Will McMahon is a truly moving tale of the New Deal in the USA, the Spanish Civil War, and a succession crisis in an interstellar empire, all in 12 pages. 'Vanishing Act' by Avra Margariti is a disturbing but also moving poem about binary star systems and teratomas (I kid you not!)

                                                    Free Book Day: The Greenland Diaries Days 1 – 100

                                                    Hello all, I’m back with a free Kindle book giveaway to gear up for CONvergence 2026, which I’ll be attending in just a few days.

                                                    I’m offering my most popular work, and the gateway to my apocalyptic horror series, the Greenland Diaries: Days 1 – 100 for FREE on the Kindle for the next three days.

                                                    This book has been revised, restructured, and rebuilt into the most effective, found journal horror experience you can imagine. The monsters are unforgettable. Description and link below:

                                                    “It began with a drum. Then the monsters came. I’ve been hiding ever since.”

                                                    The following collections of journals were recovered from a caravan outside of Duluth, Minnesota. The exact date of recovery is not known nor is the origin of the speaker. The Bureau for the Restoration of History (BFRH) would like help in identifying the man who kept these records. This unedited record of events is still considered the most accurate history of the apocalypse that occurred on April 15th, 2011.

                                                    1. Do not move when the Drum sounds
                                                    2. Do not trust the Streetlights
                                                    3. Do not look in the mirrors

                                                    Hit it here to get the Greenland Diaries: Days 1 – 100 for FREE
