Hello and I'm sorry that it has taken me so long to respond. I never got a notification of your question and I guess if you don't scroll down far enough you don't see them. First, thank you for reading. The Harrowing is one of my personal favorites of my own books. I tried to mix horror, urban fantasy, and humor. Some say I did it well some others that I did it okay.
I did hope to continue it as a series. The publisher, Necro Publications, wants a follow up. But I have commitments for the mystery books that have to take the lead for now. So the short answer is that, for now, The Harrowing will have to be a stand alone novel.

Hi Carol. You question was here then it was gone but I found your emailed note and answered there. Hope all is well.

My most recent book is not out yet but the idea came from an idea of someone throwing open the gates of hell. That was after reading the History of Hell by Alice K. Turner. Then I asked, what if it was an action movie and Arnold was sent to hell to get someone out and he threw open the gates?
It started life as about fifteen pages of a screenplay then sat for years. I almost always come back to ideas after they ferment for a long time.
That book is called The Harrowing and it is making the rounds of agents right now.

As much as anythig I'm working on selling. I have two titles on submission to publishers and an agent. One, dark fantasy, the other lighter fantasy with lots of world building.

I'm the last person to give advice. I'm still aspiring. Ask Mr. King.

I don't. I write even if I don't like what shows up on the screen. It's like when you go to work. No one cares if you just don't feel it, you're expected to do the job. The nice thing is that once you write through you can erase all the crap that got you back on track.
