A Little Blurbing for The Risen

Cover copy for The Risen:

Lily Devine has everything. Youth. Talent. Beauty. Only twenty years old, she’s just won the starring role in the biggest blockbuster movie event of the season, only to have her entire world upended when her grandmother tries to kill her.

And steals her life.

Abby Crane’s situation is much different. Happily engaged, she’s two weeks into her dream job at the Mendes Foundation. She and the incredibly charismatic Milos Mendes are on their way to a meeting together when their car suddenly skids off a snowy road and crashes in a deep ravine. Milos is killed, but Abby manages to crawl back up to the road where she meets…Milos?

Welcome to the world of The Risen, where saints can become vampires, and vampires saints. Where a history professor and her wife fight the undead alongside a 2,000 year old former vampire and a special forces vet. But where do Lily and Abby fit in? One is not quite a vampire, the other is not quite a saint. Can they possibly remain alive long enough to discover what they really are before Milos and Lily’s grandmother kill them?

Find out in…

The Risen.

Still Working On It

We’re almost there with The Magicians’ Daughter being available at Amazon. The problem turns out to have been that Amazon did not like my short story More Than Once Upon a Time being available for free on the Beyond-Ceaseless-Skies website. Since I’m dealing with a book amalgamator and not directly with Amazon, I’m not allowed to have any free content up anywhere in books I’m selling at Amazon. Since the book has already been published to other venues with the story included, I couldn’t really change the Amazon version, which is why I had to ask Beneath-Ceaseless-Skies to take my story down down. Not my preferred solution, as I’m thankful for that webzine publishing the story in the first place, but the only one I had available given Amazon’s policy.

But Beneath-Ceaseless-Skies still has many great stories. Follow the link to check them out!
