For book/ebook authors, publishers, & self-publishers
Right off the bat I want to say that I am a huge fan of John Sandford. I have devoured all 20 of his Prey novels and each of the Virgil Flowers spinoffs. There are three other Virgil Flower novels: Dark of the Moon, Heat Lightening, Rough
Country and now Bad Blood. Do you have to read them in order? No. Do you
need to read them, yes. They rock. I find it incredibly hard to put any of his
novels down once I get…

Would I? I have thought of this question many times as I push forward. I think it’s good to stop and evaluate once in awhile. Am I on the right track? Could I have avoided the pitfalls? Can I learn from my mistakes? Here’s what I came up with:
I wish I’d started earlier. I wrote every chance I could, in secret as a child. My mother thought it was a waste of time when I could be…

A Non-Genre Writer's Look at Suspense by Jason McIntyre
What creates suspense?
Years ago, a film-maker friend of mine told me he wanted to try something radically
different with his next project: he wanted to shoot a story that had absolutely no conflict.
He told me he didn't want to have a…

Here is the first part of Chapter 1 of Dead Awakening, the 2nd in the Preternatural Investigation Agency series.
‘Things were finally going well,’ Billy Markum thought to himself. He was a firm believer that life was not defined solely by one particular moment, but rather by many little events. Even more…

Sundays are fast becoming one of the biggest viewing days of the week here @ The Scoop. I don’t know if it is all literary agents scouting new talent or just the fact that there are a lot of very good writers out there
and you enjoy discovering them for the first time as much as I do. The writers
are putting themselves out there to the masses hoping that their hard work and
talent get recognized and consumed. I personally get a lot of satisfaction…

Deals by Julian Adorney is a really neat read. It is told in a very short words count, 1730 words, but it packs one heck of a wallope. I didn’t know what to expect when I
received it, but very quickly I felt fortunate to get the read in. Here is a
synopsis of the digital short: “James is determined to provide a comfortable
life for his family, but when his college degree fails to provide the goods he
finds himself making deals he hadn't…

Today we are taking it easy and only throwing two digital shorts at you. No explanation for it, just laziness on my part, sorry. I have been getting a lot of messages from readers chatting up the digital short and
their ability to be read in various places to help them get through the day. I
had not thought of many of them so here goes: at the train stop waiting for the
train, on the train, at their desks, in between…

I have been fortunate to begin to find alternatives to the Marvel and Dc stable of superheroes. I am looking forward to meeting many more when I go to the New York City Comic Con Friday October 8th.Finding
these gems is part of what makes doing this fun, besides reading a good graphic
novel. Dusk by David Doub is just that a well written, well put together
graphic novel, which utilizes different forms of artwork.
