Today I’m interviewing a wonderful author friend of mine, Steve J. McHugh, whose debut release, Crimes Against Magic, released April 30th.  Before I pull out my list of probing questions, let’s first take a look at the cover and blurb: Read more…

A Portal Into The Mind of NB Charles

April 27, 2012 in Authors - Other, Interviews, Uncategorized - Leave a reply

Today I have the pleasure of introducing you to one of my favorite authors, NB Charles.  For those who may not know, NB is not only a writing friend of mine, but he is also the master architect behind the Immortals’ Universe.  His writing is sinfully addictive.  But NB remains an absolute mystery.  And so I decided to grab my trusty ice pick and dig deep inside the mind of this enigmatic personality.

The Baby Shower

April 24, 2012 in Uncategorized, Writing - 4 comments

For the last couple of weeks, my sisters, mother and I have been planning my sister, Lisa’s, baby shower.  Not only was I immersed in an assembly line for invitations, a distinguished member of decorations committee, and wannabe sommelier for the secret pre-party meetings, but I helped make arrangements for the cake and bravely experimented with some candy making (yes, I actually gave this a shot and it turns out, I’m not THAT bad at it).  Check this out: Read more…

I’m not a person who likes to make a big deal about my birthday.  At all.  But I couldn’t resist this year.  I was born on the 13th which means there’s been a COUPLE *cough* of times that my birthday has fallen on a Friday. Read more…

Flash Fiction – Imprisoned

Flash Fiction – Imprisoned

April 12, 2012 in Flash & Shorts, Uncategorized - 4 comments

So if you follow my blog then you know I’ve been working on a new series titled SONS OF WRATH.  I wrote a flash piece a while back that inspired two of the characters in the series, Calix & Ava, titled SURRENDER.  Last fall, I wrote this flash story, which gave rise to two more SoW characters. Gavius is one of my favorites to write.  He’s smart and urbane, but can be fierce at times.  Poor guy, I think I’ve tormented him the most.  I’ll make it up to him…eventually. Read more…

BLUE MOON Cover Reveal!!

April 9, 2012 in Authors - Other, Uncategorized - One comment

I’m not going to lie.  When I’m perusing the shelves for new reading material, whether at the bookstore or while sitting at my laptop, the cover is important.  The innards could very well contain the next classic, but if the cover looks like hell, I’m on to the next one.  My thought is this:  if you’re going to take the time to write a great story, why not take equal time to design a great cover?  Read more…

I’ve been tagged!

Perhaps you’ve seen this little blogging game going around the internet.  I was tagged by the very wonderful Candice Bundy and since I’ve been dying to share a bit of my new WiP, I thought it’d be fun to play!

But!  I can’t just pick any ole’ scene from the book…and thank goodness, or I’d be here all day trying to decide on one.  So here are the rules:

  1. Go to page 77 of your current ms
  2. Go to line 7
  3. Copy down the next 7 lines/sentences, and post them as they’re written. No cheating
  4. Tag 7 other victims…er, authors

Here’s the thing…I’m not going to tag other authors this time round.  So if you’re reading this and you think you’d like to play along, have at it!  It’s a great way to give a snippet of your work without having to agonize over what lines to choose.

Now on to my Seven:

This is taken from my current WiP that has a working title of Soul Avenged, book 1 of my Sons of Wrath (SoW) series.  Unfortunately, because it comes from the middle of a page in the middle of a chapter from the middle of the book, well, it might not make a whole lotta sense.  Oh!  And there’s some strong language in this one too.  So here goes:

“It’s worth a shot.”  The first words Draven had spoken since earlier in the night.

“Is it, mister wizard?  And what happens when those demon fucks wipe out half our army, huh?  You think we’ll ever get the upper hand on the Lycans?”

“We have the Lywa antibody, we can create soldiers, sir.”

We can create soldiers, sir,” Wade mocked, “I keep forgetting you’re the goddamn expert in this operation, boy wonder.”

Hahaha…oy.  Well, if you think you might be interested in this new series, perhaps I might consider a flash story based on the characters.

Anyone?  Anyone?
