Update on Amok's Third Tale...

Greetings! For those who have been following my Sword & Sorcery news lately, the third story in my barbarian Amok's series is back from the editor's desk. The tale is titled "It Fell from the Firmament" and continues Amok and Goyiir's adventures as they pass through a village and witness an unidentified flying object crashing in a field. This story sheds some light on Amok's past and reveals interesting details about his quest. You'll be able to read it in the fourth quarter of 2024 when the book of Amok's complete chronicles is published. Until then, if you haven't already downloaded/read Amok's first two tales available as a free PDF, then head over here to join the fun. I'll be starting to write Tale #4 later today. Stay tuned for more updates in the weeks to come!

Short Story Time: Breaking and Entering

Greetings! It's the first Saturday of the month so it's time for another FREE short story from yours truly! Today I give you "Breaking and Entering", which was originally published in NexGen Pulp Magazine way back in 2008 and reprinted in 2010 in my collection The Bitternest Chronicles. It was also adapted as a short film directed by Jonathan Dubsky in 2010. It’s the story of a man who enters people’s homes just for kicks, never stealing anything, just to see what goes on behind closed doors. One day he’ll stumble upon something that will change his life forever… 

You can download this 13-page short story as a free PDF right here. I'll see you again on September 2nd for another free story. Until then, enjoy "Breaking and Entering" and if you missed last month's story, "Scapegoat", you can get it at this location
