Some updates
It's been a while since I posted any sort of work update, so here I am to do one. Right now I have quite a bit in the works and ready to come out. Between now and the end of December I have four releases due out. My story Perfection Through Silence will be in Fresh Fear, which is edited by William Cook. My story Despair will be in Someone Wicked, which is edited by Weldon Burge and JM Reinbold. My story Give Me Convenience will be in Miseria's Chorale, which is edited by David Nell.
I will also be releasing my third collection, Dark Reaches at the end of December-early January. This one will be featuring 16 stories. A fair bit are new ones, while others are collected from anthologies I have appeared in over the last year. There is also a little hidden something in it for those that like to hunt around. This one is currently in the editing process, and should be ready pretty soon.
On top of that, I am still waiting on release dates for three other short stories and the final release date for my new novel, Shutdown.
And with all that going, this month I am taking part in NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month). I had to start this one from scratch and as it stands I have finished 20,000 words in 7 days. Not too bad. The novel I am working on is The Gate at Lake Drive and is the first novel in the Dillon the Monster Dick series. If I can keep the pace up that I am currently on, the book will be ready for editing by the end of November. And it seems as though that will happen. This is the first novel I have ever written that seems to be writing itself. It is full of monsters, demons, quirky townspeople, shady salesmen and burlesque performers. It's strange, cheesy, scary and funny. A bit of noir and a a whole lot of strange.
And as I do that, I have started to put together my forth collection, Salt on the Wound, and I am writing five new short stories for different anthologies that seem fun. Better yet, they pay well; always a good thing.
There are a few more little bits of exciting news here, but they will have to wait until things are confirmed. Can't wait to share it with all of you.
