Cover

Hello:

Just got the cover for Sapphire Sirens. It's nice. Will be posting it soon. My final edits are done. So off to copy edit now.

Man, my working daze gets so much more action!

Waiting

Still waiting to hear back from Daw on my final (well before galleys) edits of Sapphire Sirens.

Still waiting to hear from DC on my latest zuda entry. No idea what wait time is now. It would be great if we made the July competition. Shannon would have fun at Comic Con,

Newest Zuda Entry

My newest zuda entry Kiss Em Deadly was submitted today. Kiss em Deadly is about a woman who's touch can kill the living and animate the dead (that she herself doesn't kill). Think sort of Rogue meets Pushing Daisies. Of course things turn out to be much more complicated than that. The woman is much more than she seems...

Kiss em Deadly is drawn by Cedric and co-written by Shannon Codner who happens to look a lot like the main character.


Shannon's web site is here.

Editing, editing more editing

Well I am on the last legs (well near last legs) of the Sapphire Sirens editing process. I received my editors suggestions and am now implementing them. It's actually a pretty painless process. Though I am not sure how these things worked in the "old days" (the 80s) before "track changes" became standard in Word.

I plan to be done by end of the month.

New YA New Partner

While I do hope to do one more Zach story I am working on another novel that is like Zach but different. I always like to be writing on novel alone. 

I am also though working on a YA novel with my buddy Shannon Codner. The story is about a high school girl who is half vampire queen just trying to fit in. I asked Shannon to write this with to help focus on what's its like being a teenage girl.

Shannon is also coming on board on one of my newer Zuda projects. She is acting as co-creator and model for the lead character for that comic called: KIss Em Deady.

This is Shannon.

Going Organic

While I would love to write one more Zach novel is Daw is interested, I also plan to branch out into a new series. Something like Zach but different. I am even thinking of going organic with this one and writing start to finish withOUT an outline.

Yikes!!

Down time work

While I wait for my feedback from Daw I am working on a number of projects.

First I am trying to get my mind around my next solo-novel.  I have a cool idea about a Dwarf PI living in a sort of other dimension Earth, where it's the equivalent of the 1970s and creatures from fantasy mix with regular humans. 

I am also working on a YA novel, about a girl who is half-vampire with my buddy Shannon Duffy.

I am also working on a hypnosis self-help book with my good friend: writer, director, hypnotist, actress: Elena Beloff. 

I am also working on the next issue of my comic Sam 3.14,PI being illustrated by Scott Roberts and inked and lettered  by John Dallaire.  

Plus I am working on my next zuda entry, a serious one.  This one will be illustrated by Chris Meeks, John Dallaire will ink and color and Elena will also be onboard as a co-writer.  Man we better win this time.
