I have a blogtalk radio show; I call it The G-ZONE, and this week there is going to be plenty of fun for just about everybody. The line-up this week goes from Christian based authors to bocce to graphic novels  to one of the book industries currently most talked about authors, a Titan in the thriller/action/suspense genre, Barry Eisler( I am a huge fan if you didn’t know). Without further ado, here is the lineup for the week all times are EST:

Monday: Brian Goins 12pm

Tuesday:…

Just wanted to alert you to a new blog post at my Ask John Kremer website. I've just updated it with more resources: Book Marketing and Book Promotion Resources

I've linked to many great resource on how to market your books. Check them out. You'll be glad you did.

John Kremer is the author of…

The birth of a heroine, I love it. A brand new series by Lisa Taylor that takes us into a duel world: West Point Cadet and CIA operative. The author is a graduate of West Point, so we are getting the real deal here, and she provides us with a total gung-ho attitude with Shana Black. The universe she creates is a very unique one, the plotline and narrative very fresh for this genre, and overall it is a very nice, kick-a#@ read. If you are looking for action, suspense, thrills and a can do…

From Highgate Hill to Kindle

When my mother was a small girl, my grandfather, Charles, stood holding her hand on Highgate Hill.  Together they watched one of the first aeroplanes fly overhead.  He looked down at Mother and said: ‘Nothing will come of those flying machines.”

Born within the sound of Bow Bells, the eldest of eight children, Charles was a scholarship boy at Westminster Boys School and sang in the choir at Westminster Abbey.  Unfortunately,…

Tomorrow, Monday Sept. 12^th, ,I have two guests on my blogtalk radio show : Brian Goins and Vincent Hobbes author of “Endlands”.The show starts at 12m EST. Here is what Brian Goins will be discussing”

“Playing Hurt: A Guy's Strategy for a Winning Marriage  is every man's biblical playbook for marriage. Like a coach shouting from the sidelines, author Brian Goins demonstrates a never-give-up attitude that will motivate men to action and show what it means to "play hurt" so…

Check it out; coming in September will be the first of many cookbooks that Trestle Press will be producing. The first one will be a mixture of just about everything from a wide variety of authors who have penned stories with Trestle Press. To let you in on what is to come, the game plan is to have one for each and every season (fall, winter, spring, summer) plus special editions.

To give you an example of what you can expect, some of my recipes are called” The G-Man’s Chrome Bocce…

The Buddha advocated the three marks of existence: dukkha, or that suffering is inherent to life; anicca, or that life’s sufferings are impermanent; and anatta, or that…

I have to admit, I was a little surprised once I started to read this. I believe I have read everything Brett Battles has written thus far, and I must say,if you are a fan of his work, this is a departure from anything he has done. Is that bad? No, how could anything this author turns out be considered anything but excellent? He really goes deep, really deep into the heart and soul of the matter in “The Pull of Gravity”. I was really drawn to the stark honesty of his characters…

Eerie looking cover, and more of that on the inside pages. This was my first read on a work penned by Sandra Ruttan, and it definitely will not be my last. “Harvest of Ruins” is one of those multi-layered works that is haunting, highly emotional, and engrossing. Ruttan handles a very tense subject well, and carries us the reader through a journey of pain with a very deft guiding hand. Generally I try to stay away from novels with material that is too heavy; reading for me is fun, and so…

Hey all,

There’s a new site that will promo your book for free. It’s

In the last month Michelle Vasquez has released two digital short stories: “Second Hand Bookstore” and now “Til Death Do Us Part”. Some may say they are shocked by this, me, well, I knew she had it in her. The quick success she has attained is a testament to her hard work and ability. The thing that catches my eye about her work though is that both stories are polar opposites, one is a nice, warm and cuddly tale, the other is a hard core suspense/thriller/horror…

Another Friday is upon us. I just wanted to mention that I've been doing author interviews for quite some time. This week's interview will be the last one for awhile since I would like to concentrate on promoting my upcoming book, Beta. I hope you will join me on my blog tour and continue to visit me here as I'll be telling you all about the book, my thoughts…

I have found that in this new e-book age that anything that was released a month or so ago seems out of sight out mind. I have news for you; a good read is a good read no matter the age or when it was released. Just because an author doesn’t pump something out on a monthly basis and decides to wait a few months between his or her work doesn’t mean they have fallen off a cliff or into a raging volcano.

My point is this: dig a little for your next read. Look hard, look long, and enjoy…

Hi, all!

On Murderby4 - our award winning writers blog - we've been blessed with some great guests in the past, including our beloved Warren Adler, but today we welcome Laurie R. King, author of 21 best sellers, including a fantastic series that features Mary Russell, who just happens to be married to Sherlock Holmes!

Oh, I love these books, they're like gifts when they are released. They take place in the early 20th century and although they're anchored in…

Hi folks,

I'll be at the Big E in West Springfield, MA in the Connecticut Building with other CAPA vendors. We'll be signing books, and I will have some T-Shirts and CDs to give away as well. 

I've been interviewing and having a lot of fun learning the ropes with promotion.  Thanks for the continued support, and if you are at the Big E, 9/25, 9/26 or 10/2 from the hours of 10 am to 7 pm, please look for me and introduce yourself.

Cheers, K

I have purposely put two posts in total opposite together today; I like themes, and these are extremes. Let me stop right there before I break out into my cover of a Billy Joel song. From the first words I have read of this series, “One”, I was pretty much sucked into it. Why? I love the genuineness of it, the feelings laid bare, the core and essence of it. I have come to understand the intent and the desire of the creator of this series, Mark Miller. He has no desire to bring anyone in that…

Come and join a new children's radio show featuring stories from unknown author's.

Looking for a good zombie/horror story to have burned into your brain? Look no further, download this undead tale and enjoy. Mark Cooper steps up to the plate and puts his mark on zombies in a big way in “Infection”. Vivid images of rotting flesh, decomposing bodies, and limbless creatures wandering around aimlessly are the norm in the story. Sounds like fun doesn’t it? It is, really, in a very deep, zombie kind of way. I have to warn you though; the images he creates are very stark, very…
