So this has been probably one of my most productive years creatively in a long time. Back in January I published my first novel, The Witch and the Rose, and followed it up in June with a sequel, Bloody Damn Rite. Well, today I'm excited to officially announce the third book in the series, Shadowcasting, will be available on 12/15/2024! Like the earlier books in the series, you can pre-order the book on Kindle immediately, and it will arrive on your device December 15th ready to go.
Honestly, I'm super excited about this one. It's probably my favorite book in the series, and I can't wait for you guys to get your hands on it. Here's the back of cover synopsis:
Winter has clawed its way into the heart of Parrish Mills, and something far darker may have come with it. When Mia Graves, a witch with a habit of getting into trouble, and her best friend Riley Whittaker stumble across a grisly scene along the Wabash River, they find it reeks of dark, forbidden magic and has left at least one charred body in its wake.
With the help of young Bobbi Crawford, the further Mia and Riley dig into the events that took place on that cold Indiana morning, the more dire their circumstances reveal themselves to be. Between a stolen grimoire and a group of young witches who may not know how dangerous their actions are, shadows loom in the dark of winter.
And one of those shadows may be more dangerous than anyone imagined.
(Also, and this is unrelated, the non-Kindle, DRM free ePub version of Bloody Damn Rite is now available in my Patreon store too)
Totally not what I thought it would be. I should have posted my predictions (frivolous lawsuit, venue extra-EXTRA unavailable…uh…I know I had at least one other…) with the last comic.
This should be interesting.
…oh S**T
Now that’s a nightmare. Embezzlement?
Set the Wayback Machine to 1980. Galacticon in Los Angeles is supposed to be at the Bonaventure Hotel downtown. All the fen show up and… no con. It was eventually learned that the chair had “invested” the entire con treasury in a white, powdery substance and got busted. There’s a whole class of us called Galacticon Refugees who discovered Loscon 7 at the Anaheim Sheraton and have been going to Loscon ever since.
Well that explains a few things – that was when a “friend” told me how Galacticon, the con he was working on had just lost it’s person in charge of the art show and would I pullleeeezzzee take over running said art show. Next month. Already all organized and stuff. Being way too naive for my own good I said ok, and about the time I noticed the “organization” was nil and I had stuck something together with spit and wire, I was informed that the con was suddenly cancelled due to losing its hotel (this about a week before it was scheduled). I was so relieved I really didn’t pay any more attention to the thing. Figures they didn’t warn anybody. Chairman get caught pushing or just send the whole budget up his nose? Idiot.
Caught pushing.
I can rarely say something “started on a cliffhanger”. Consider me in suspense!
What about many episodes of 21st century “Doctor Who?”
…not what I had guessed… really hoping is something along the lines of ‘oh, didn’t we tell you? The money all gets transfer to this other account during the off-season. For reasons.’
Hmmm. Now willt his be a Los Pegasus situation…
OK, what ancient Chinese guy did they manage to tick off? “May you live in interesting times” indeed…
Did they invite a musical act who, not realizing that a fan-run convention is not a typical venue, took advantage of Room Service?
