Updated Publication Schedule and Synopsis

I’ve received several emails over the last week that asked for an update on when to expect my first novel to be released.  A few of you have also asked for me to include a synopsis of it as well as my future planned work.  So, in response to your requests:
Bounce, will be released in April 2012.
Mack Reynolds has not had a good week.  His wife left him for the life she’d rather have, his kid doesn’t really like him anymore, his humidor is empty, and he’s very quickly running through his last two fifths of whiskey. While his life spontaneously combusts around him and his self-control exits stage right, Mack accelerates his fall from grace with all the good cigars, cheap booze, and out of control escapades he can muster.  Hitting bottom is a given.  What’s waiting for him when he gets there is the question.
By Design, targeted for late Q2 to early Q3 2012

For Nick and Dina, boy meets girl would have been a much simpler equation.  When two best friends work together and play together, the world of nightclub design takes on more twists and turns than some of the best roller coasters.  Worlds may collide all the time but when it happens even against someone’s most basic definitions of who they are, the simplest of decisions can have destructive consequences.

Hurricane Carolina, targeted late 2012

It all begins with a song.  Dr. Logan Scott’s life and career as a literature professor imploded in grand style and he has spent his time since hiding from the world and licking his wounds at his beach house.  He has no idea that the song he hears nightly from the crow’s nest of his home will not only bring him back into the world but plunge him headfirst into a whirlpool of local politics, hidden identities, and a rock n’ roll band named Circe.

The Valley of the Shadow of Death (working title), targeted late 2012 early 2013

College is the time to get your degree, learn about the world, and form lifelong friendships that form the very foundations of who you are.  It can also be a time of deeply guarded secrets, the blackest of betrayals, and the home to some of the worst sins imaginable.  As a group of college friends gathers to say goodbye to one of their own, they find that the past never really dies and that the truth can be more deadly than any secret.

Well, there you have it.  I will of course post updates when each book becomes available for purchase or download as the time comes.  I will also let those of you interested know that there are plans in progress for a launch party for The Bounce at the Bottom which should occur sometime in mid-April.  Please email me if you would like to receive an invitation for the event.

Just as a closing note I’d also like to take a minute once again to thank all of you that read this blog for your overwhelming response.  The purpose of this blog at its inception was to gauge whether or not I would have an audience if I moved forward with publishing my work and you all have proven me wrong as usual.  Thank you again and look forward to the new CS post a little later this week.
