Formatting for SLANT WELL Done

I’m done. I finally got the formatting finished. Slant Well is in the hands of the editing staff at Eternal Press. I had more than enough delays and disasters along the way. Attacks by trojans and a messed up hard drive slowed me. If that were not enough, I came to believe that evil gnomes or gremlins were messing with my edits. I lost several days work. I kept going. I got it done. What I started in 2009 is on its way to print.

Along the way, I fell in love with the characters. They took on lives of their own and demanded to have little adventures aside from the book. I wrote short stories for them. I have people asking when they will see a collection of the shorts in book form. To that I say, “Some day.” In the meantime, I will post some here.

The path to getting Slant Well published has been an interesting and educational one. Along the way, I made friends, found fans, and had fun while I worked. I now have a marketing platform that is growing. I’m a long way from the hardly email savvy Luddite I was. I will continue this journey into tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow.

ASH on the STAIRS cover reveal

My premier novel, ASH on the STAIRS, is an erotic novel set in the high-rise world on Manhattan’s business district. Strong, independent characters, steamy sex, and a fast paced plot carry the reader along through the twists and surprise turns in this tale of love and redemption. It will be available February 1, 2015 in paperback and ebook from Eternal Press, Barnes&Noble, Amazon, and other booksellers.ASH on the STAIRS cover art for release

A Step Closer to Publication: ASH on the STAIRS

The cover art for ASH on the STAIRS, my erotic novel, is almost ready to be revealed. This has me bouncing around like a kid with ADHD. It made me come up with this tag line, “ASH on the STAIRS, a book so hot you’ll have to wear oven mitts to read it.”

It is my first novel to be published, so all this is new territory for me. Eternal Press was willing to take a chance on a first time author and I appreciate the support of the professionals there. I feel like I’m getting a chance at the big times now. Not bad for a dyslexic dreamer.
