I've waited a long time to be able to post here! I just got an offer yesterday for a publishing contract!

I'll add more details as soon as I get them, including my name of course...but I just wanted to share the exciting news!

Been working on editing #1, but finished #2, Trial by Death in late 2017 with 130566.

Based on the first fifty pages of editing I've done on #1, that number is going to go down...

No Idris Elba for Erlking?


Dorn would make a better Rawlins, and Hudsdon could Stallings.

I was thinking Elba for Sanya, actually.

Twenty years ago, Bruce Campbell I think would have been a great Harry, esp. with the solid, defined chin.

Hi all.

I've been writing in some form since I was a teenager.  My friend and I came up with some ideas and even though we went our separate ways, I stuck with some of them and began incorporating a few into plans for two different series.  I've completed three manuscripts for one such series, and tried self-publishing one of them.  Fortunately, that experience led me to give my manuscript to a friend, the very friend that got me into the Dresden Files, and through some harsh but justified criticism, I realized I needed to rethink everything.  So three of those manuscripts are flushed, and I've engaged a total rethink for those characters.  I'm now writing an urban fantasy series which takes place in Detroit (where I'm from) and features a former Detroit cop (which I'm not) being sucked into the world of the supernatural after taking on a case in which three men have been murdered by a creature that no normal means can identify.

I'm nearing the end of my first draft (much later than expected due to a hard drive crash), and plan to hand it over to my same friend for editing immediately after I'm done.  It is called Wings of Death and I hope to link it here soon, probably through Smashwords or something.  My only other surviving manuscript, The Liberators, is a sci-fi alternate universe number that probably needs some tweaking for technology since I wrote the original in 1998, but I have hope for it.
