And Now for Something Completely Different!

AMOK THE POWERFUL has been out for three months already. Have you purchased your copy yet? If you’re into cinematic, dialogue-driven Sword & Sorcery tales with no extra fat, then this is the book for you. You can scroll down to the previous blog entries to read the book’s synopsis or if you want to jump in right away, you can download the entire first episode of the book as a 30-page PDF right here. Or if listening to audiobooks is more your thing, then you can head over to YouTube to listen to me do a live reading of the first episode. The book is available exclusively through Amazon on Kindle and in print. Again, scroll to the previous posts for all the links to buy.

And now for something completely different! I’ve had an idea for a cool sci-fi short story ever since last summer but wanted to be done writing and promoting Amok to give it my full attention. I jotted down a plan for it back in January, including a short outline with detailed character bios and got started writing last weekend. The story is titled ANOMALY and is about a recon ship on a mission to salvage a vessel on an expedition to collect samples that’s crashed on an ice planet. I won’t divulge any more for the time being, but I’m hoping to be done writing it by early May to make it available as a Kindle tale on Amazon. It’ll most likely be within the 30 to 40-page range. It’s strongly inspired by the Alien and The Thing films, so fans of those movies will get a kick out of it. This will be my first published sci-fi story; I’d begun writing a sci-fi novel in 2010 but lost inspiration for it, abandoning it for good after several months of hitting a wall and 60-something pages penned.

That’s it for me. I’ll keep you posted as ANOMALY progresses in the weeks to come and I’ll reveal the cover art for it at some point. Until next time, happy reading and Long Live Amok!
