My newest novel comes out one week from when I am writing this blog post. For those of you coming late to this post, this means March 19, 2019. The novel is called The Revisionists. The plot of the novel gets summed up this way: a brilliant, but disturbed, man invents a technology which can actually alter history. It's about as close as I will ever get to writing a time travel book. It was a fun book to write. With technology the way it is and learning about things like colle

I've talked about this before, but it comes up time and again. People always want to know where the stories I write come from. What's interesting is the people you meet who try to tell you they have a great idea for a story. Hey, you should write about - XYZ. That would be a great book! I always appreciate that. My own father was a consistent source. In fact, from time to time, those suggestions are good enough to get stored away in my brain somewhere or a notebook. But for t

A lot changed for me when I wrote the novel The Man from Taured. Not only has it slowly, over time, become one of my bestselling novels across all platforms, but it changed a lot of my own thinking and changed the course of my writing, too. Before TMfT I had written all kinds of weird stuff and thrillers, of course. I had toyed with the idea of alternate realities and perhaps dimensions, but as I toyed with those ideas, I began to research them, too. Of course, this ultimatel

My new novel The Revisionists is coming in March. It's the story of Cal Trove and his invention of technology which can alter reality itself, change history. He brings his friends from his college days to his island dominion where he is surrounded by hundreds of his employees who are devoted to him utterly. Cal is excited to unveil Revision. He wants his friends, all of whom he says are the smartest people he knows, to help him alter all of reality. He seems to have no clue w

Quick, answer from your heart and not from your brain. Did South African civil rights leader, Nelson Mandela die while in prison during the late 70s or did he get out of jail in the 90s and eventually become the President of South Africa and die in his old age decades later? As for me, I distinctly remember the day, when I was in college, watching Mandela released from jail. My friends and I watched this event happen on CNN and were amazed. It seemed like it would never happe

My newest novel is coming March 19, 2019 and it's a real mind-bending, reality-altering, techno-thriller unlike anything I've written before. The Revisionists is now available for pre-order in paperback and Kindle editions. I am also proud to say I am working again with the amazing Allie James to create the audiobook version which will also be out this spring sometime. CLICK HERE if you want to pre-order the Kindle edition for just 99 cents - a special pre-order price. CLICK

A new nightmare coming in 2019. Cal Trove is the reclusive billionaire in charge of a massive technology company. Everyone has a Trove phone, Trove TV, laptop or apps. Trove himself is a recluse, living on his large private island surrounded by hundreds of his acolyte employees who worship him like a god. Now, his friends from college have been brought to this isolated place so Cal Trove can unveil his latest creation: Revision. A way to actually change the past, alter realit

I am very pleased to announce that the audiobook version of my bestselling 2017 psychological thriller Storyland is now available! Named as a best of 2017 by book bloggers and a semi-finalist in the Soon to be Famous Author Illinois contest, this is an intense and terrifying psychological thriller about repressed memories, childhood, and the nightmares which lurk withing our own mind. Available at Amazon and Audible, I am proud to have worked with Tweet Productions to create

My latest book, When the Night Comes Out, coming out close to Halloween 2018, is a collection of short stories. The stories themselves were all published on their own and are still available for about 99 cents a piece and just available for Kindle. For some people, the question I sometimes get asked is, with all of the novels and the fact I am fairly quick at cranking out books, why bother with short stories at all. So, I thought I'd go through some of the things I love about

When I was younger, I was the kid who loved to read. I was not the daring kid who jumped around on rocks or climbed trees. Hell, I was the kid who stood out from everyone else because I had flat feet and couldn't wear sneakers. I was the kid wearing orthopedic shoes with a stacked heel at the age of four and five while riding my Big Wheel. I couldn't climb a fence or pull myself up onto a tree branch. There was one thing I loved. I loved being lost in my imagination. It start

Not a big post here, just trying to share things with the people who stop by and check out my blog, but the great folks over at the blog Reads & Reels gave me a great review of S.P.I.D.A.R. on the site this week. I really want to thank them, spread the word, and hopefully drive a little traffic to them. They deserve it and I appreciate it.

I am very proud to say that a new audiobook of one of my favorite books I have written is now out. My thriller book After the Snowfall is now available as an audiobook and read by the amazing Scott Servheen who has been just the most amazing voice talent to work with. I am so excited to bring this one to you. This is a book that has a truly special place in my heart. I wrote this book as my book for the one and only time I participated in NaNoWriMo. I wrote this book within 2

Possible SPOILERS ahead: This is just a review of the terrifying new horror movie A Quiet Place, and I will try not to give too much away. However, if you are one of those oddballs who prefers to know nothing about a movie before you see it - stop now and come back later. 'Kay? Have you ever really sat in silence during a movie? I mean, really, really, total and utter silence. You may think you have, but until you see the new movie A Quiet Place, you have not actually sat the

Take a look at that photo there. Look at that guy who sort of looks like Gomez Addams there, right? That guy matches a voice that, in turn, matched a weird nighttime radio show that, for a brief and glorious time, dominated overnights in this country. That is Art Bell and for a time in the late 90s, he was there for me in ways others in my life were not. I had an obsession with radio for years. I got involved in it myself when the college I attended started a radio station. I

SPOILERS AHEAD - if you haven't read the novel... Peter Benchley was a writer trying to make a living off of his art for years. He had an agent and that agent was able to get in touch with a publisher and present a number of ideas Benchley had indicated he thought would make good books. One of them was about his obsession when it came to sharks. He had spent much of his youth obsessed with learning all about sharks and things related to the sea. The publisher assumed he was a

Hello everyone. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you all for coming with me on the journey. The release of SPIDAR has been a major milestone for me. My first published work of fiction by a larger-sized publisher than I have ever worked with before. I am now on an author page on their website alongside true heroes of mine like Clive Barker and Brian Keene. A publisher who put out, all at once, a paperback, ebook and audiobook edition and who has a significant audiobook

In ALL formats, folks. Are you afraid of spiders? Many people are... If so, then this one will really scare you.
