But if you have a Kindle, you can start the zombie-alien chompfest by clicking here.

Covering the Dead

That's the cover for the eBook edition of Dead Earth: The Green Dawn, which will be available in a few days from Permuted Press. I think it has a spooky pulp feel, and I wanted to share it.

Donovan Pike and The City of the Gods--Chapter 11

The latest chapter of my pulp adventure novel is up now at Pulp Nocturne. You can read it or listen to the podcast.

Hornet in the House

My contributor copies of the Green Hornet Chronicles arrived today. It's a beautiful book, and I'm honored to be among these stellar writers, including James Reasoner, my friend Ron Fortier and one of my heroes, Harlan Ellison.

You can order the book here.

Donovan Pike and The City of the Gods--Chapter 10

I've finally produced a new installment of Donovan Pike and The City of the Gods, my pulp adventure novel. Chapter 10 just went live at Pulp Nocturne. You can read it or listen to it or both, if you're so inclined.

I know I've made earlier pledges that Donovan was back on a weekly basis, and I've failed to keep to the schedule. So I'm not going to do that this time.

But...

Since my recent health issues have cleared up, I seem to have a more energy than the past several months. I plan to keep working on Donovan Pike and The City of the Gods until it's finished, then collect it between covers.

As always, thanks for your support.
