So I asked several folks if they wanted to read the third installment in the Sal Sarcazzo thriller series. I tried to get at least a few readers who haven’t read the previous two stories. I wanted to see if the third book could stand on its own.

Anyway…. As I wait for responses from my friendly neighborhood beta readers, I have started jotting down notes and ideas for a new story. The question is whether or not it’s a new Sal Sarcazzo book or something entirely different.

i can’t lie, I’m leaning towards different. After all I do enjoy expanding my horizons and seeing where it’ll take me.

There are actually two new story ideas I am brainstorming. I have no clue which one I will focus on.

The first is about a sports marksman who gets muscled by a small time crime lord to assasinate a powerful person, who is in the way of the crime boss’s business dealings. He’s never shot anyone in his whole life, but if he wants to see his girlfriend again, he better pull the the trigger on this powerful executive.

The second idea is about a low level vigilante who tries to clean up his crime ridden neighborhood. However, he has caught the attention of two adversaries. One is a mobster that extorts the local businesses for protection money. The other is a high level vigilante who doesn’t like sharing his media attention.

So there you have it… Two story ideas that I’m toying with. Which one sounds good to you? Feel free to let me know in the comments.

Until next time…
