Here’s Where The Story Ends

Most of the readers of this blog are probably aware of my other, much-more-popular-than-this-one blog, Dennis’s Diary of Destruction, which features the antics and adventures of three dogs, an evil cat, ninja hedgehogs, a sarcastic field mouse, a stoner ex-DEA drug-sniffing dog, and various other bit players. When I discovered that Dragon Stones had hit the best-seller list on the Amazon.co.uk Kindle store, I put Dennis’s blog on hiatus so I could concentrate on finishing my next fantasy novel (which is not a sequel to Dragon Stones — but, due to popular demand, such a sequel will be coming eventually). This decision produced much sadness amongst Dennis’s nice readers. Fortunately, one of them, Mango Relentlessly Huge, has most thoughtfully provided an ending to my book so that I can get back to Dennis’s Diary that much faster. So here, for your reading pleasure, is the final chapter of my next novel, as written by Mango the mastiff. Enjoy!

Scenes-Of-The-Month: “The Wolf” and “Dragon Stones”

Well, the votes are in and we have another tie this month between The Wolf and Dragon Stones. It’s been a while since that happened, and it’s been so long since The Wolf last put in an appearance that I don’t remember where we left off. I think I said there were werewolf hijinx coming up, didn’t I? Let’s find out.

No Post Today

Well I guess technically this is a post. But it’s not a very good one. Maybe I can interest you in voting for the next scene of the month instead?

Random Rejection: Maelstrom, “Pinch Bobby ‘Til He Bleeds”

It’s been a while since I reached into my stack of rejection letters, so today I dove in and pulled this one out, from Maelstrom, for a short story called “Pinch Bobby ‘Til He Bleeds”.

Scene-Of-The-Month: “The Wolf”

The votes are in and the winner for the next Scene of the Month is (surprise!) The Wolf. Now I know I’ve been teasing everyone with promises of more werewolf mayhem; there isn’t any in this particular scene, but in the very next one after this, the fun really begins. I’m not sayin’ you have to vote for The Wolf; I’m just sayin’.

New “Crows” User Review On Amazon

So the other day I found a new customer review of A Flock of Crows is Called A Murder (Kindle Edition) on Amazon.com, a mere eight years after it received its first customer review!

Scenes-Of-The-Month: “Dragon Stones” and “The Wolf”

The votes are in and we once again have a tie between Dragon Stones and The Wolf. I think all my other books are getting a little jealous. But the readers have spoken!

Memorial Day Giveaway

It’s Memorial Day and I’m feeling lazy, so I figured I would just do another giveaway.  You may remember a while back I posted the full PDF of Dragon Stones; so I thought I would follow that up with the full PDF of Long Before Dawn.  Because, you know, nothing says “Memorial Day” like a bunch of vampires trying to overrun and destroy a small town in upstate New York. And so, here it is, Long Before Dawn!

Of course, Long Before Dawn and my other published books are also available in dead tree, Kindle, and generic e-book versions as well, if you prefer to spend money instead.

Don’t forget to vote for the next scene of the month, coming next week!

Scene-Of-The-Month: “The Wolf”

The votes are in, and there aren’t that many of them, because I kept forgetting to attach the poll to my posts this month.  Bad, bad me!  I have now stuck the poll link in a widget in the sidebar (not that sidebar, the other sidebar), so you can always go there to vote when you come to visit.  But in the meantime, the votes are in, and this month’s winner, following last month’s upset by that irascible dragon, is … The Wolf!

Get yours here — only 99 cents! And of course no post about Crows would be complete without an excerpt to whet your appetite …
