Hello everyone. I recently decided to republish my Broken Reality short story series. These nine stories aren't new but come from my various short story collections. A while back I decided to publish them as singles because I felt they were the "oddball" stories in the collections of which they were a part - not really fitting with the overall connectiveness of the collection - and needed their own spotlight. They may be available only for a limited time. I'm unsure yet. We'll see how it goes. I...

Hey friends,

It seems Amazon has removed DOWN ON THE FARM from its permanently free status. I reached out to correct the matter but the technician on the other end was no help. Maybe I will follow-up at a later date. For now, the story will be in the Kindle Unlimited program. Also, I would like to mention that the stories in the Sheriff Randall King series can be read as standalone stories. If you enjoy small-town crime with a heavy dose of rural noir, then you might like this series. Click the l...

Yesterday, somewhere on the interwebs, DOWN ON THE FARM received a nice boost, which resulted in a few extra daily downloads than it normally receives. As of now, the story is #1 in free 30-Minute Mystery, Thriller & Suspense Short Reads, #1 in free 30-Minute Literature & Fiction Short Reads, and #3 in free Contemporary Western Fiction. If you haven't yet, click over and download a free copy. Reviews and ratings tell me that readers like it or hate it. You be the judge.

November 25th marked 14 years since I became an Indie author. My first published story, Faith, Love and Moonshine: An Appalachian Tale, was published on Smashwords back in 2011 and has since spread across the interwebs to many other retailing sites. That story has also spawned two novels: Moonshiner's Justice and Moonshiner's Honor. Eventually, I plan to expand the series into a third book. I've been claiming that for a while now, but I know that someday it will happen.

I still write about every ...
