This week, an editing job and a contract to script a horror comic fell into my lap like manna from heaven. Just goes to show that no matter how old you are, or how jaded and complacent you may become in your writing career, the potential for new things is always on the horizon.

Doing a limited edition with ⁦@ThunderstormBks⁩ is always an honor and a thrill. Book 3 of The Saga of Dead-Eye turned out beautifully. Paul and I began our publishing relationship way back in 2009. DE3 is my 22nd book with Thunderstorm, with more to come.
