It's release day (perfect on Friday the 13th!) for the anthology, Behind the Shadows II, containing my eerie, Twilight-Zone-ish story, "Blink!" In "Blink!", Tommy wakes to a new world and wonders why no one else "sees" what is going on but him. A little weird and even funny at times! (Ok, funny to me. I know, humor is subjective but I think you'll laugh a little!) This was such a fun story to write. One of my favorites I've done! * Get the ebook: various outlets * Paperback, ebook - Barnes & Noble * Paperback - Amazon US

Happy to say my story, "Wildfire," will be in the anthology, (I Just) Died In Your Arms: Crime Fiction Inspired by One-Hit Wonders, Volume I. Should be coming out in December. Always loved this sad song, so I tried to give it justice. Thrilled about this. The stories included will be a treat to read and are fun, too! Definitely some memorable choices. (I love It's Raining Men! and The Rapper always makes me think of a certain time period. I like 96 Tears, too.) Included are: Christine Verstraete: Wildfire Song: “Wildfire” by Michael Martin Murphey (1975) Barb Goffman: Teenage Dirtbag Song: Teenage Dirtbag by Wheatus (2000) Leone Ciporin: Life in a Northern Town Song: Life in a Northern Town by Dream Academy (1985) Adam Gorgoni: Bitch Song: Bitch by Meredith Brooks (1997) Bev Vincent: Somebody’s Watching Song: Somebody’s Watching Me by Rockwell (1984) Wendy Harrison: It’s Raining Men Song: It’s Raining Men by The Weather Girls (1983) Josh Pachter: The Rapper Song: The Rapper by The Jaggerz (1970) Sandra Murphy: Pigeon Talk Song: 867-5309/Jenny) by Tommy Tutone Joseph S.

New #Zombie 'Drabbles' Out Now! #fiction
I've got a new story, "A Mother's Love," in the recently released anthology, "100 Word Horrors 3: An Anthology of Horror Drabbles." My story is one I've revisited several times in different lengths as the theme is a fun one to write and to see how I can change it. The reviewer at EricaRobynReads seemed to like it, too, and gave it a 5/5 rating, with the anthology also getting a 5 rating. Check out the full review at the link above. * Get the Kindle version on Amazon. (Paperback coming soon!) |
