Detective Sergeant Michael O’Halloran is quickly becoming one of my favorite characters to write and given all the positive responses I’ve gotten to Crime and Gummibears, you’re all enjoying him, as well. In The Games We Play, O’Halloran has to deal with a very tense hostage situation that triggers a memory of playing paintball with [...]
One of my favorite characters both in books and television is Hieronymus Bosch, Harry to his friends. I gobbled up all 24 books by Michael Connelly in order – beginning with The Black Echo and, although I hope it’s not THE end, ending with Desert Star. I really enjoy the no-nonsense detective with a heart [...]
I don't often talk about my "other" roles here on my site. I'm just a thriller author, here. But one of my other roles is that of editor in chief at our publishing company, Stories Rule Press. We've been doing a lot of brainstorming lately, about the state of the book industry and where we [...]
Happy Monday! We're only one week away from the launch of Credible Threat, and it's been an extremely busy time here at Stories Rule Press HQ. Uploading, proofreading, formatting, and all that jazz. I want to thank everyone who's preordered episodes. You've made Credible Threat our most successful launch ever! I really appreciate it! I [...]
Happy Monday! As promised last week, here's everything you need to know about my new series, Credible Threat, including the spectacular cover to the left. One family’s life is changed beyond anything they could ever imagine. A major foreign power has been funneling key intelligence personnel into the United States for nearly a year, hiding [...]
Happy Monday! I hope your week is off to a brilliant start. Let me ask you a question: Who shot J.R.? Do you remember? I don't, actually. I do remember that in the summer of 1980, you couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting someone who was talking about it. The season finale cliffhanger of [...]
First up; if you're celebrating Thanksgiving today, I hope you and yours have a wonderful day. Enjoy the turkey! If you shop at Kobo and you're in Canada, the USA, the UK, Australia or New Zealand, then you might want to pop over to Kobo and check out their Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale. Look for [...]
That was Merry to a tee! Happy Monday! Normally on Mondays, although I’ve missed a few weeks now, I put out an update on whatever I’m currently writing, when it might be out and that sort of thing. This week, something a little different. I wasn’t a cat person growing up. We had [...]
And, we're on the countdown to Santa's arrival. Only 29 more sleeps! I don't know that we have a lot of Christmas traditions in our house. Certainly, no very formal ones. Whoever's around helps put up the tree, then the cats help pull it down. The wrapped presents go under the tree, then the cats [...]
Only thirty more sleeps until Santa comes!!! I still have trouble sleeping Christmas Eve although, over the years, the reason has changed...somewhat. Don't get me wrong, I'm still looking forward to the morning when I get to play with all my new toys. But, one of the things I also look forward to is other [...]
