Hey, guys,

Happy Fall!

It’s been a while since I updated my website. I am suffering from “Too many irons in the fire” syndrome. That should be a thing, right? TMIITF syndrome. Bet some of you feel the same way.

Anyway, one of those irons in my next book release and it’s waay behind schedule. But I still hope to get it out before the end of the year. It’s the 2nd book in the O’Ceagan Saga series, and I’m really happy with the story, but still need to edit.

In the meantime, I have a story running on Vella. If you’re not familiar with it, the stories on this platform are serialized, so most of them are around 1500 to 2000 words per episode. Some are a little longer. The first three episodes of any story are free to read, then you pay for each episode as you read it with tokens you purchase from Amazon. Vella is intended for quick reading on your telephone and formatted for it, so it’s easy to squeeze in an episode at lunch or while waiting for a bus.

Anyway, until Oct. 11th, you can read any  Vella episodes you want during this Amazon promotion. So, if you’d like to read my serialized story, Cynara’s Destiny, the first season is complete at 34 episodes and available at: https://www.amazon.com/kindle-vella/story/B093BJMBJ4

I’d love it if you’d give it a read and give me a thumbs up if you like it. A review would be awesome, but not required.  Feel free to tell others.

Also, in the news, my Time Threads series book, Splintered Time will be going to wide distribution in the next few days. Once I have the universal link for that, I’ll post it here. I’ll begin working on the third and final book next month as my NaNaWriMo project, so that one will be out in 2023.

Happy Fall, enjoy the cooler weather and luscious autumn colors coming our way. If you’re below the Equator, spring is just beginning to bloom for you. Warmer weather and fun ahead.

Next time, I’m to start a new feature and begin by reviewing a couple of books I am reading.  Check back for that!

Thanks for reading and hopefully checking out my books. I appreciate your support more than you know!

Amazing Vella Promotion

Leave a comment

As I mentioned last post, Vella has arrived at Amazon. Sadly, the big A doesn’t seem to be promoting this new format much, so several of the Vella authors, including yours truly, have banded together to do a promotion through Book Funnel. That’s right, 17 Vella stories are included to entice you to read a few chapters. Simply click on the image below to go to the page to check out the great assortment of stories.

Among the offerings is my novel, Cynara’s Destiny. So far, nine episodes are available to read. I’ve been trying to get the eps up every other week, but I hope to pick that up to each week at the end of August when I plan to have Book 2 of my Time Threads series ready to publish. In case you’re wondering, Destiny is completely written and I am doing the final edits just before posting each episode, so it will be a completed book. I know some people don’t like to read a serialized story until all the episodes are up.

But here’s the good part. The first three episodes are free to read. Check out any of these stories you’re interested in, then decide if you want to keep reading. Amazon is giving you 200 free tokens just to give it a try. This format is for tablets and phones, but if you have Google Chrome, you can also read it on your computers. So, what are you waiting for? See what’s being offered on Vella now.
