New Print Books and Some Updates

Jun 02, 2023 5:01 pm

Welcome to June and the start of summer. I wanted to start out by reassuring everyone that I'm fine. As you may know, I live in Nova Scotia, which is currently burning from several wildfires, but I don't live in any of the danger zones. The situation is very heartbreaking and tragic and my condolences and prayers go out to all the families that have been evacuated and have lost their homes.

Other than this last week of fire watch though, May hummed along, and apart from dealing with Amazon again, it's been smooth sailing. Here's what's been happening...

----------------------------------------------

Fairy Tales and Nightmares has a tentative publishing date of October. The beta readers are busy giving me great and appreciated feedback, keeping the editing on track. I can't wait to get this into the hands of readers.

Fairy Tales and Nightmares

Happily ever after sometimes just means surviving...

Nine fairy tales reimagined within the worlds of horror, history and mythology.

What if the Evil Queen fell in love with Snow White or Sleeping Beauty’s curse came with a beast? And how far would someone go to avenge their family? These stories upturn your favourite tales and retell them with a horror spin, weaving them into such diverse settings as feudal Japan, the ancient Roman Empire, and Celtic Ireland.

Gone are the damsels in distress and the heroic princes, this is the grim world of folklore where the princesses are the monsters or the champions of their own fate. No one is coming to save them, but they’ll fight their way out of madness and terror or die trying.

Also, I'm planning book 3 in this series, Villains and Nightmares, and would love to know what wicked creatures are your favourites. I want to go with the classics like vampires and demons but would love to throw in some lesser-known mythological monsters too. Drop a reply to this newsletter with what you'd like to see in the book.

The new print version of Ghosts of the Sea Moon has been uploaded to Amazon (unfortunately the cover skewed far darker in the proof copy than shown here) As well, a new print version of Chronicles of the Undead (after much wrangling and frustration with the Amazon review team) is available. Here are the new covers and the links.
