My upcoming horror novel S.P.I.D.A.R. is one that will scare you. I tried hard to scare you. It is my first true, straight-up horror novel in a while and it deals with something that a vast majority of the world finds scarier than death. Spiders. The town of Whittier is isolated in Alaska and the people all live within towers once used by the military. The tourist season is over. Winter is coming. Then a body washes up on shore. A body that says it's from the government facil

Hello there! So, I finally got word back from the publisher about when my terrifying new novel, S.P.I.D.A.R., will be coming out. Originally, I had been told the novel would be coming out in all formats on January 8, but that didn't happen. I am guessing it had to do with the audiobook. Having produced a few audiobooks, I can tell you, it's always the audiobook. I have been told that the new target date is Friday, February 23, 2018. That is the day a new definition of terror

My horror novella The Well comes out this Black Friday - right after Thanksgiving. As you contemplate heading out to fight the crowds while holiday shopping or prepare yourself for the cyber-attacks of Cyber Monday, you can scare yourself with this weird supernatural tale of horror I concocted while writing my short fiction this year. The Well tells the story of a man and woman who buy a new house. Right away, the wife, Karen, seems a bit off. Obsessed with checking out the y

Storyland starts in the modern day when a man named Ned, while attending ComiCon, awakens to find out that his childhood best friend Martin Brace has brutally murdered for people out in the woods back in his home town. Martin and Ned lived next door to each other as kids and played a game called Storyland. Martin stated he believed Storyland was real and that they were part of the story itself, set out to defeat a giant evil he's named Grool. Martin is now a reclusive author

Chicago suspense writer Bryan Alaspa continues to do things the hard way, announcing via his website and social media that he will be publishing his new psychological thriller novel Storyland under his own publishing label on Halloween, 2017. The reason? The feedback he got from publishing agents and traditional publishers said the novel was “too dark”, “disturbing” and “gritty” for them. “It was weird,” says the author, “several of them got back to me and the ones who provid

For just 99 cents you can pre-order my terrifying new short horror store ...And Then Silence for your Kindle and Kindle Apps. Folks - this one even gave me chills and nightmares as I wrote it. I hope you like it and tell a friend! SYNOPSIS Hanley is the Town Time Forgot. The main street still looks like it did in the 50s. There's a thriving local grocery store, hardware store, clothing stores and downtown area. No big box stores. It has been this way. It has always been this

So, I have finished a first draft of another novel this year. That means, in the span of less than a year, I have drafted three novels. One is currently being shopped around to literary agents (and if that fails, then to small press publishers, then maybe to Kindle Scout and, if that fails, I'll publish it myself), one is with a Beta reader and needs MAJOR help (that one may be out by end of the year) and this one. And this one scared the crap out of me. I have two Beta reade

It's a funny thing, being a fiction writer. There are a lot of things that you can work out by writing about them. I am here to tell you that it is very therapeutic.

That even includes murder. Probably the bestselling novel I have out there is RIG. It's a novel about a demon-possessed oil
