Many of my friends and family check this site from time to time.  Since I haven't changed it in a while, I thought I'd dedicate a page to my process:  how I write, what I write and what's currently circulating in the ol' beanie.

This month it's all about da-da-da...(drumroll please...)  

     Writing Short

     With Jared's book finished, I'm working on the first of an entirely new type of book for me--a novella.  Related to the Beyond Dead gang, these smaller  books are spacers.  Focusing on lesser known characters, they answer questions a reader might have about the world I've created.

The book I'm working on now deals with Dingo, Crash's twin brother.  For those unfamiliar with Crash, he's the hunky Werewolf drummer of the group who rooms with Specter. 

Readers meet Dingo in Jared's book.  And although the hottie bartender makes quite an impression, I wanted to explain more about how he met his wife, Willie.  So that's what I'm doing now.  I'm writing a prequel set thirteen years before Jared's story.  It's a challenge, but one I'm happy to meet head on.  I'll keep you posted.

     Keep reading and I'll keep writing!

Things I'm Planning To Write:

More novels in the Beyond Dead series:

1.) Vince Charloup's book

         Rebel Without a Clawset

2) Specter's book

     Something Wicked This Way Strums

     Beyond Dead's lead guitarist, and original vampire bad boy, is into flowers--of all kinds.  He goes to the local library for a book on horticulture and sees college teacher Posey Brown in the stacks.  Now all he wants to check out is her!

3)Crash's Book

     (Untitled)

     After a fun night out, Aussie Werewolf drummer Crash falls for a sheila with a soft spot for rescuing wayward pups like himself. 

4) Donatella de Luna's Book (Untitled)

     Donatella is a real princess.  This spoiled Italian Renaissance vampire can't cook or clean, but finds herself head over heels with a dishy Italian-American plumber.

5) Morgan's Book (Untitled)

     Now with Donatella moved out, Victorian-era vampire  Morgan finds herself alone.  But not for long.  She's being watched-- by a handsome off-duty detective.  He's come to investigate a series of murders in the area.   They bear a striking resemblance to the White Chapel killings.   It couldn't be the Ripper, but a copycat, he says.  Still Morgan knows the truth. 

     Jack is back.  And when it comes to the Ripper... he leaves no witnesses.
