The Trade Paper Cover for Fool's Run
I don't think I've shared the trade paper cover art here for my upcoming book Fool's Run, which is planned as the first adventure for Si Reardon. A cop who is just out of prison and faced with a job nobody wants.
It'll drop in ebook and trade paper formats Nov. 24, 2020.
“This thriller-cum-caper will keep readers eagerly turning the pages.”
– Publisher’s Weekly
Here's a look at the nigh final version with a sense of the wrap-around effect.
There's one repeated line of copy that will get tweaked, but by and large, this is the look.
It's now up for pre-order on Amazon and other sites.

Five Days Until the Fool's Run Release
Fool's Run: A Si Reardon Novel
The release of Fool's Run is just five days away.
Here's a snippet:
I didn’t like being the one in hiding. The one sweating. When you’re a cop you can almost pick up the scent of that sweat and fear. You’re usually on the trail of a stupid kid who’s botched a job that seemed easy enough when all the factors weren’t weighed.
Now I knew how it felt.
Icicles were melting in my armpits and spilling down my torso. I’d acted on impulse, thinking I could pull it off with bravado and will power. I was starting to feel like I’d knocked over a liquor store and found my car blocked in…

Two New Arrivals At Our House
The holiday season is always an exciting even in a time of pandemic.
We've had a lot going on. Authorwise it was exciting to get author copies of Fool's Run in from Crossroad Press. They traveled quickly via UPS. It reminds me of the days when I published by Pinnacle and author copies shipment would turn up. It's a feeling that never gets old.
Signed copies were quickly turned around for recent Goodreads giveaway winners, and those are now headed toward their destinations via the good people at the USPS.

Fool's Run: A Si Reardon Novel
Familywise, well, the other new arrival is Miss Zoe Moonshadow, who was a guest of the humane society after two previous owners were deployed in quick succession.

She's about five and will be taking on companion animal and editorial assistant duties shortly.

New Short Story - Sanitarium Issue No. 3

Just got word that the new issue of Sanitarium magazine featuring my horror/crime short story "The Fury" has been released. It's available in trade paper and ebook editions.
Mine's a little tale of suburban revenge, and the volume, at almost 400 pages, includes much more great fiction.
