edit data

C.J. Weiss loves hiking, board/video games, traveling, and obviously reading (particularly speculative fiction and some history). Walking around the neighborhood with a podcast or audiobook playing is a daily occurrence.

Excerpt from Secrets Gnaw at the Flesh

Just wanted to offer up a quick excerpt from an early chapter of the book to give a sense of atmosphere.

Excerpt:

The chill returned, gusting so strong it ruffled his shirt. He readjusted his collar and brushed his neck, but the cold remained. Slippery wet cold like a melting ice cube stroked his shoulder blade and slid out under his short sleeves. The ice melted, spread, and submerged his forearm i Read more of this blog post »
