Okay, so it's barely May and aleady it's in the upper 90s around here. I am stubbornly refusing to turn on the air conditioning--despite having a cold. I will suffer.
The temptation in weather like this is to turn to something light and frothy. A beach read, right? Preferably one that actually occurs at the beach. If you're looking for that, I offer my novella Treasure, which you can download for free here. Or maybe you want a road trip story, like my soon-to-be-released Motel. Pool. Or a vacation tale like Venetian Masks.
But you know what? I think you ought to be contrary. As those temps climb and the days grow longer, I think you should curl up with something a little dark. Something with monsters. Like our new anthology, Stitch, of course. It contains novellas by Sue Brown, Eli Easton, Jamie Fessenden, and me, each of which will make you think about what it really means to be human. Maybe you'll even be cooled a bit with a chill up your spine--or else heated up with some steamy lovin'.
The four of us will be joined by B.G. Thomas for a second book in the Gothika series; this book will contain voodoo stories. Mine's called "The Dance" and was submitted today. That book should release in time for Halloween.
In the meantime, pour yourself something cold and admire this cover:
B.G. Thomas will be joining you? Yay!! Not that I'm wishing for Halloween already. We're just getting to enjoy the first signs of Spring, temps are only in the high forties and I hate winter. Well, I don't really hate winter, it's just that we seldom get a proper summer where I live and the lack of sunshine is not doing me any good.
ReplyDeleteI used to live in Oregon, where we appreciated every bit of sunshine. Here in California, not so much.
DeleteAnd yes, I'm excited that B.G. is joining us!
Gotta read this one...best cover ever!
ReplyDeleteEli made the cover. Isn't it fantastic??
