🗣️ Hey! I’m talkin’ here... (& a 🆓 short story)
|
Look, I totally get it—you’re only here 'cause you grabbed a free story. I really hope you had a blast reading it. And hey, maybe you even stumbled upon one of the other freebies I sent your way through this newsletter. Awesome. 👍🏼 But the last thing you needed was another useless email cluttering your Inbox. Heck, you may have a filter or rule shoving me into oblivion, making this note moot. C’est la vie. (Did you say "la vie"? 😉) So feel free to unsub and say adios. Really, no hard feelings. But if you stay, I’ll try to keep things interesting and worth your while. I’ll send you a free story now and again as well as reviews and recs, and of course more free reads from lots of great authors. And don’t forget you can hit Reply to tell me how much I suck, why you hated my story, or ask me anything you like. (I also take compliments really well, if you’re so inclined. 🫣) Anyway, glad to have you here and even gladder to slide you to the “Opens” column in my newsletter reports. (Even if you opened it only to click Unsubscribe 😝 That’s an “Open” & a “Clicked”, so a win-win?) What's that? You want more free stuff? You’re killing me, but okay, that’s sort of our thing. Enjoy the short read. See, what’d I tell you? I hope you’ll be glad you stuck around. 🎁 TheDoctorsDilemma.epub 🤫 Here’s a little secret. This short story needs a great name. Please send me your ideas. But wait, there’s more… 🎧 DARKENED CLOUD audiobook in production. I can’t shout loud enough how stoked I am. The narrator is amazing and I’m enjoying listening to it as a fan more than its author. 🎧 The audiobook of FINDING IDYLLIUM is finished and sounding great. Stay tuned to win a free copy of either of these sci-fi thrillers on Audible or Spotify. ✍🏼 I've been busy. Did you know I have a crime thriller about to drop? A serial killer cold case reignites with a 12th killing. The detective leading the case gets pulled into the lives of the victim's family. It's full of my trademark deep characters and rich dialogue and emotional punch. I also have an alternate history novel in the works as well as a new space opera series. Stay tuned for some great stuff... Links... (Because we both know that's what you want) Enjoy your read! |

🤮 How to suck without knowing it 🙋🏻♂️ What I’m up to ✍🏼 Author resources Just write Yep, that’s the advice so many "experts" give us authors. They say it’s the best way to improve. Is it? 🧑🍳 If you suck at cooking and just keep cooking, you’ll likely improve a little. Trial & error can be a decent teacher. 🤔 But would you open a restaurant if you’re the only one who ever tasted your food and you consider it good? I think it’s true that writers improve by writing, but only so much. If no one...
📝 A note from this author 🫣 “Me” in my characters & stories 😘 Darkened Cloud launch price goes bye bye 🔓 A Personal Note: I don’t often share my personal losses and experiences. One October gave me the most unimaginable of these when my sons (12 & 13 at the time) and I lost the most amazing & loving wife and mother. We carried on and I’m proud of the men my sons have become. The thing about personal experiences, even the tragic ones, as a writer is how they shape my characters and stories....
