Today is launch day of our anthology 'Instant Classic, that no one will read.' I describe it as a self-help book for authors. It won't help you write, but it will help you know you're not alone as you wallow in the misery of trying to get published. Also devils butt mouth!

Amazon just told me its black Friday week. Seems to be stretching it a bit.
But if you do want a good deal, you won't find a bigger discount out there than my sci-fi novella 'Cold Rising' which is completely free for the entire weekend.

Bullshit! Lots of things that haven't killed me have left me with aches, pains and an inability to pick things up off the floor.
You can now check out my short story EX-MECH for free on Story Origin.
Gared is struggling to adjust to life after being a space marine never mind their life altering injuries.
A dark tale of trauma and finding solace in the most unusual of place.

Gared tries to acclimatise to life after the marines as well as their life changing injuries. But now that almost everyone they rely on is gone they must seek help in the strangest of places.

How come blue bottles don't get the same transformation stories as butterflies. They go from eggs to maggots, become a pupae and eventually emerge as a dazzling fly. Seems unfair butterfly's get all the glory. πŸ€”
The world has gone crazy. Schools using tablets instead of books. And now I hear they won't be making rulers any longer. πŸ™ƒ
