Murder in Murk City now on Kindle!
My murder mystery parody Murder in Murk City is now available on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited! https://bit.ly/43FRVGC
There’s something amiss in Murk City, and that little something is called…murder.
It’s just another night at the seedy Volcano Lounge when the brash, up-and-coming video artist Lim Reesewell is killed. Detectives Baggart and Hispin swing into action to bring the culprit to justice. But they have a confusing array of suspects to choose from including: Teen van Rietveld, a desperate struggling painter in the city’s dangerous Belgian district. Orin Hepperneth, the leader of a strange moon cult and its resident Moonheads. Margaret Muggett, the disillusioned, glamor-seeking wife of the lounge owner, who’s carrying on a not-so-secret affair with margarine magnate Victor Margent. And that’s just scratching the surface.

I Was a Teenage Ghost Hunter II
Hey guys,
I Was a Teenage Ghost Hunter II is now available for Kindle! http://amzn.to/2s18tXr
Sophomore Devin Mulwray isn't happy being known as the Ghost Boy at Grey Bluff High in Arcata, California. Since Devin's dramatic encounters with the angry ghost of Rutherford Rousten, stories about his unique paranormal abilities have spread all over town.
Devin's trying to get back to a normal life and cope with his new job at a trendy fashion shop when bizarre occurrences start happening all over again. A stuck-up girl at school starts behaving very strangely during a school rally, appearing to be under a demented trance. Devin finds himself again summoned to disturbing dead-of-the-night encounters with the resident spirit of the old Escamonde Hotel. And Grey Bluff High's most enthusiastic paranormal expert, Nayra Montez, insists that Devin meet up with her enigmatic mentor, Dagmar Wiltschaft, to learn more about the occult.
Before Devin knows what's happening, he and his two best friends, oddball musician Clive Welter-Manes and technology enthusiast Rex Hisakawa, are drawn into investigating ghostly manifestations at the expansive home of the wealthy Holster family. Devin's girlfriend Emily starts wondering about all the time he's spending with Nayra and Regina while Devin has his own questions about why Emily always seems to be talking about the handsome, multi-talented Joaquin Veracruz.
Devin has to deal with a creepy séance, a meeting with a forest phantom and a haunted Victorian lantern before he can get to the bottom of the strange circumstances around the Holster haunting.

New review for I Was a Teenage Ghost Hunter
“The freaky things going on in the manor are more than the teens bargained for, and eventually the scary spirit seeps into Devin’s dreams. Between trying to live his life as a normal teenager, and trying to figure out the meaning behind the haunting, Devin’s plate is full. The spooky twists and turns in this book will keep you turning the pages, it just keeps getting better and better. I could not put this book down.” http://bit.ly/1I6GoDj
