What's happening updated.

Did I mention Pill Hill's books are also available in electronic format from Smashworlds? And there is a Kindel link now for their books?

Also, a short story of mine, 'Home Schooling', is in their recently published anthology titled Haunted. It is, as you might expect, a collection of quality ghost stories.

What's been happening

Well, the book promotion continues to go great! Among the interviews and reviews I've scored is a great review by one of my favorite authors, Piers Anthony! http://www.hipiers.com/10april.html

Also, the Absolute Xpress flash fiction anthology was published to great acclaim, and I have several more flash pieces accepted for publication later this year.

And I still don't have a professional website developed. I had one started over at my Comcast personal space, but something glitched and now it won't let me update it, or even delete and start over. So far, appeals to the Comcast technical department result only in a form email with instructions to access the file that don't work. Ah well.

What's Happening on the writing front

What's happening? Well, reviews for The Weaving are still coming in, and still looking strong. I will post links to them as I get them. For instance, we have http://www.staticmovement.com/theweavingreview.htm

On my other writing, I have been relaxing and experimenting with flash fiction while writing down ideas for plotting my next novel. I have had one accepted for Cup of Joe, by Wicked East Press, and another for the Daily Flash Anthology, by Pill Hill Press.

Also, the flash story in Thieves and Scoundrels by Absolute Xpress http://absolute-x-press.com/ is being published 1 April.

Page Turner radio inteview!

Finished an audio interview with Nancy of Page Turners, and had a great time talking about the book and writing in general. About halfway through, we even had one of those technical glitches where we lost Nancy for about 30 seconds, and I didn't know if anyone could still hear me. Only sheer luck kept me from blurting out something over the air before we came back. The player button will be added to the page soon as I figure out how to do it. IN the meantime here's the link to the site.

Results so far.

Well, the book is available at Amazon and Barnes & Noble, has had several reviews online, an interview, and so far I'm pleased with the response. I also donated a copy to the local library, and it's already checked out with a reserve hold on it when it gets returned, and the library has ordered several more copies. This tickles me as much as anything else. It's too bad our public library system is under attack by the forces of budget trimming.

Here's a few links to some of the reviews and interviews.
