Happy Shadow Day

April 21st, 2011

Happy Shadow Day!

To celebrate, I have a treat for you: the world premiere of the first-ever book trailer for my upcoming book, Shadow’s Lure. This beautiful video was created by the multi-talented Susan Griffith, co-author of The Greyfriar (Pyr Books).

But first let me explain the concept behind Shadow Day. Simply put, my goal is to encourage as many people as possible to pre-order Shadow’s Lure. How well a book does in its first couple weeks is very important, and pre-orders are an important part of that. We want to make a big splash that sends ripples throughout the literary world!

And it starts with you. If you’ve already pre-ordered Shadow’s Lure from an online source (like Amazon, Borders, or Barnes & Noble) or from your local bookstore, then I thank you from the bottom of my evil little heart. But don’t let it end there. Tell your friends and family about the book, your co-workers and classmates. If you have your own website or you’re on a social site like Facebook, spread the word. Everybody has a cousin or a brother or an aunt who reads voraciously. Clue them in. Or order them a copy as a gift. Nothing says love like an assassin bent on revenge.

Thank you all very much. And now, without further ado, the video trailer for book two of the Shadow Saga. . .

Meet Author Kimberly Bennett

April 18th, 2011


Kimberly Bennett is one of the wonderful authors I met at both Steel City Con and the Pittsburgh ComiCon. She is a lifelong resident of Northeast Ohio. Kimberly released her first book, Twisted Delights : A Thrilling Short Story Anthology, in Sept 2010 and is scheduled to release her second, A Degree of Wickedness, in Dec 2011. If you like Tales from the Crypt and the writings of Edgar Allen Poe, then Twisted Delights is up your alley!

Pittsburgh ComiCon 2011

April 18th, 2011

Hey folks,

This past weekend I was at P.C.C, which was held at the same venue as the Steel City Con from last month. The crowd was good. Some great costumes. And I was really impressed by the quality of the artwork that could be found (as well just about every comicbook ever created).

I wasn’t the only author there. The con had several small presses in attendance, as well as some individual authors like Kimberly Bennett. I’ll throw some pictures up on my facebook page in the near future.

I also want to give a shout out to my buddies, Chris and Christina and Brian from Fortress Publishing, who were at the con also. Much alcohol was imbibed after hours, and the entertainment alone made the trip worthwhile.
