Michael Atencio's Blog: How to come up with unique ideas for stories

New novel release

Mick Charger - Murder by Cop is my re-release of The Mystic Harbor Murders. It has been rewritten into a tighter, action packed adventure thriller that I'm proud of. I have it on Amazon and KDP Select (Amazon Prime) lending library. I wanted people to read it for free if they have Prime. I have and love Prime for new books and authors. If you have a chance download it or get it through Amazon.com Read more of this blog post »

“Look, even in the shadows of skyscrapers some still stumble over the rubble of Babylon and stay separate. But a fearless few cross our lines of language. Lamp-led messengers show the common ground we’re already standing on – if we’ll just look. There’s light.”
