AIRSHIP 27 PRODUCTION PRESENTS AMONGST THE CROOKED STARS

Ten years ago, intergalactic thief Neroy Sphinx was an operative for a highly sophisticated deep space exploration combine headed by Cleric Griffin. He and an amazing female android named Fenris were part of a team that discovered a mysterious orb left behind by an alien race. In the course of investigating it, something went wrong, and Griffin had to sacrifice the souls of his colleagues to save them. Fearing Neroy would go mad from the experience, Griffin sealed off his memories until the time he felt he was ready to deal with them.

Ten years later, Neroy is hopping from one planet to another, sensing his own elusive memories are about to resurface. Meanwhile, various systems have reported brutal alien incursions threatening the entire civilized empire of stars. Griffin believes somewhere in Neroy’s buried memories is the solution to thwarting the ancient horror. And so he and Fenris race to find their old ally and together face the coming challenge. If it is not too late to do so.

Writer Daniel Whiston spins a fantastic sci-fi adventure as the second book in his exciting new Crooked Stars Trilogy.

The Power of Writers

I saw this on social media the other day, and I fell in love with it immediately. It captures so well to me how important it is for us writers to keep at the work, no matter how much politics and culture may get us down, may beat us down. Viva la resistance!

THE TERRORS 2 is LIVE!

THE TERROR TWINS ARE BACK!

A forgotten pharaoh revives in Raceway City, announcing his return with a series of grisly murders.

But when the city falls under the Pharaoh's mind control… when his eyes and ears are everywhere… when trusted allies can become enemies… when one of their greatest champions is rendered powerless…

How can the Terror Twins stop an evil older than history itself—and save Raceway City… or the world?

The answer lies in this thrilling sequel to the Pulp Factory Award-winning The Terrors*. Brian K. Morris is back with a menace that raises the stakes with every chapter.

*Best Cover: Jeffrey Hayes/Plasmafire Graphics 

On Amazon. (You can also pick up the first book while you're at it.)

Motivational Monday: A Story Lies

A Story Lies


William Blake said

In every spark,

A story lies,

And he was right.


Every story lies,

Not only hiding

In every spark,

But in telling true untruth.


The colorfulness

Of language allows

Both to exist

In the shifting of meaning.


And that, friends,

Shines brighter

Than any tyger's

Symmetry could frame.

Progress Report

Currently at appr. 28k words on this one. 

What's it about? 

A medium detective, a yurei, and an escapee from a mental hospital walk into a mystery. Blah, blah, blah, a cursed postcard collection that could trigger the arrival of apocalyptic evil.
