Don’t call this a reboot

So, it has been a long time, I acknowledge that. Some things have changed and some remain the same.

I am still hard at work writing a dark fantasy novel set in a world of my own making. A world overtaken by a magical darkness, where a new spark of light, unwilling and corrupted though he may be, is the only hope in stopping an unchained evil, and possibly resurrecting a sacred order of good. My plan is to finally finish it by the end of 2025. I may shop it around to publishers before self-publishing as I have my two other books. Fingers crossed that this will be my breakout hit.

I am still waiting on two of my Kairo stories to be published in upcoming Weirdbook Magazine issues. I have a Frankenstein monster in WW2 short story looking for a home.

In addition, I am in the exploratory phase of starting a radio show/ podcast called Electric Darkness (hence the name of the Web site). This will be an audio show that will showcase music (synth, dark, spooky), some old ghost stories, maybe interviews, all in a cozy, low key, dare I say ASMR tone. Of course, I will also use a tiny portion of it to promote my writings.

Stay tuned.

As the new year has begun, so too has a new novel. I say novel and not novella, as I am pretty confident this next book will be long enough to be considered a true novel. You see, my next novel is a high fantasy novel and the world building has already begun. This will not be epic fantasy, but fantasy nonetheless…and dark. Think Universal Monsters meets Lord of the Rings. Hoping this will be a series as well.

I have a couple of short stories making the rounds; a Frankenstein monster in WW2 story, and another Kairo story. I should really write one or two more Kairo stories and publish them as a collection.

Still waiting for the Weirdbook Magazine issues that contain more Kairo stories to be out. Seems like that magazine’s publishing schedule has gone off the rails. Hopefully they get things on track again. It is a great magazine for weird stories.

The reception for my last book, Monsterly, has been great (I am assuming since I have only one starred review on Goodreads). If you read it, or any of my books, please leave a review on Amazon and Goodreads. Since I cannot afford to flood Amazon with ads for my books, this is the only marketing I have.

That’s all for now. Catch you later.
