Every indie author needs to watch this video.

Great news today! I’m booked for part in an indie film as a day player with three lines. The shoot date is Nov. 9!
How cool! A reader is Missouri let me know they bought the last signed copy of Born on Monday in Webb City. We’ll see if Somewhere In Time bookstore would like some new titles along with a restock. Love that store!

Woke up today to discover this amazing write up by the Scottsdale Book Festival. scottsdalebookfestival.com/b…
Happy Anniversary to my second novel, Born on Monday. Somehow, despite a life-altering accident and medical complications that largely prevented travel and book signings, this small town thriller set in Maine crossed the 1,000 copies sold mark in one year!
Along the way, Born on Monday also received first place thriller in the Fall 2025 Bookfest awards, second in annual Incipere Awards 2026, and a 2026 Book Award from Readers' Favorite. Yay!
As an atmospheric small town thriller, Born on Monday was chosen for a Spooky Bargains sale this Halloween! Check out the complete lists of books on Bargain Booksy. tinyurl.com/u5xphr7c
How cool! I just spotted a signed copy of Born on Monday out in the wild — at Somewhere In Time Bookshop in Webb City, Missouri (second shelf from the bottom). It’s the last copy. Someone should grab it up so I can send my next shipment to this amazing store. 🙂
Did I mention the Kindle version of Born on Monday is set at $2.99 as part of an anniversary promotion? It’s a great pick if you like small town thrillers and characters with depth.
Tonight is crazy for me as my two favorite teams meet up again. Milwaukee is my hometown, and the Dodgers are longtime favorites in Las Vegas. I’m leaning Brewers because they’re overdo to have their day, though I’d be just as happy to see the Dodgers stick around a little longer. Let’s go!
Save The Date: I'll be signing with Andy Weir and 200+ authors at Reader Nation on Nov. 14 at the Horseshoe in Las Vegas. I'll have copies of all three books, bookmarks, goodies, and a way to sign for up an audiobook giveaway. Hope to see you!
Indigenous Peoples’ Day and Columbus Day share a date. 1492 began a collision of cultures, yet the world that followed has produced extraordinary gains in knowledge, prosperity, and opportunity for people on every side of history.
There is a reason all my books carry reminders of our heritage. None of us can undo the past, but we can decide how to honor it.
