Kindle Nook I was thrilled to be included in this anthology for a few reasons. First, the story that got accepted was not an easy one to write. I love fantasy and I love adventure stories, but they don’t always come naturally to me the way horror and dark or urban fantasy does. Now, … More Excerpt: The Ruins of St. Louis (from Thunder on the Battlefield: Sorcery)
Today, my brothers and sisters, is a day meant for jubilation. Not only have we vanquished our foes and driven our enemies into blood-soaked graves, but those of us who are left are left stronger than before, blessed by the powers that humans are not meant to fully know… Or maybe Thunder in the Battlefield … More Available Now: Thunder in the Battlefield!
A beautiful thing has happened. Lost in the Shadow is now available in paperback, meaning you can now hold a copy in your own hot little hands! I’ve cradled it against my own cheek, and I have to admit, it’s a beautiful book full of deliciously intriguing and twisted tales that let the reader wander … More Lost in the Shadows: Now in Paperback!
Time once again for weekend writing warriors! This week I’m taking eight sentences from my short story All the Little Things, which appears in the new book Lost in the Shadows!

My turning points usually hit randomly, but today I feel really good. Maybe it’s because I know good things are on the horizon, maybe I’m just tired of being frustrated, but I’m feeling pretty skippy about life at the moment. So yeah, after all the frustration of NBP closing, Fandom Fest’s issues, and other stuff … More Where Do We Go Now?
So since I’m doing a panel at Fandom Fest about the challenges of Coauthoring today, I thought my eight for weekend writing warriors would be from my latest release with S.H. Roddey, the short story collection, Lost in the Shadows. This is from my short The Legend of Shadow Trace, Idea Thief. It’s a story … More WeWriWa: The Legend of Shadow Trace
So since today one of the panels I’m moderating is about horror, I thought I’d give you a taste of my zombie story. This takes place on Christmas Eve, and is about a makeshift little family trying to keep some sense of normalcy while the undead stalk their hiding place. *** “Joy, joy, joy!” Andy … More Tidbit: Candles, from Lost in the Shadows
So presuming Susan and I haven’t taken Louisville by storm and made everyone our minions yet, Fandom Fest officially kicks off today! My commitment tonight is helping out with Author Karaoke at 8:30 pm at Room 106, so in honor of that, here’s a short little blurb from one of my stories in the new … More Tidbit: On Fire, from Lost in the Shadows
So, so, SO excited! There’s a great article up about SH Roddey and I at Fandomfest (you can find our panel schedules there!). It also covers the release of Lost in the Shadows, so you should totally check it out (and then by a copy, because you’ll never get all its goodness from snippets and … More Lost in the Shadows gets an article on examiner.com!
Since S.H. Roddey was an overachiever and posted an excerpt from our latest endeavor last week, I decided it was time for me to post one of my own. Granted, some things have shown up on my blog before as writing prompts, other things are from free reads or blog challenges on other places. This … More Lost in the Shadows: Excerpt: Ideas Abound
