After a two year hiatus I'm pleased to see that I have a website dedicated to my writing again. This time we've got Deena Warner maintaining things, so I'm confident things won't fall apart.

The big news is Monkey Love, part of a three-novella set from Biting Dog Publications with Kealan Patrick Burke and Jeff Strand. The novellas are not connected, so you can buy all three from BDP (and save 25%) or purchase them individually.

What's next - It's called, Marquee and it'll be a chap book. The when and where will be announced when I know.

Message Board - It's coming. For those who were a part of what we had before, it'll be a lot of the same. A bit of me - a bit of you. There's a lot of writers/artists out there who don't get needed attention.

More Later.
