Writing Updates for August 2018—Out now, coming soon, and the future!

Hey! It's been a very long time since my last update here. In fact, I've only posted two updates this year so far—and it's already August! So, I wanted to write something for those who don't follow me on Twitter and Facebook or don't follow the email newsletter. (Do it, you know you want to!) I'll make it quick, I swear!

A Boy Possessed is out now! Do you like The Exorcist? Are you a fan of my supernatural books, like Her Suffering and Madness at Madison Mall? If so, then I think you'll like this one. Scattershot is now available for pre-order, releasing on September 13th. (the day after my birthday *wink, wink*) If you've been waiting for my return to extreme horror, this is it. It's a very violent and disturbing book. If you're not into serial killers, I'll be releasing a new cannibal horror book titled City of Hunger on October 11th. Off the top of my head, you can think of it as Children of the Corn meets The Hills Have Eyes. This one is also very gruesome.

In November, I should be releasing a book titled Dr. Sadist. This is another standalone book in my 'Snuff Network' series, which includes Mr. Snuff and Ms. Vengeance. You do not have to read the previous books in order to read this one, though. That's the great thing about standalones. Dr. Sadist will be my longest book to date. And, it will most likely be my most violent book ever. I'm not trying to hype it up, I'm just telling it how it is. The first six chapters alone are incredibly violent. Keep your eyes peeled for this one.

In December, I might be taking a little break from the horror genre. I wrote a book earlier this year about a teacher who tries to find justice for a student who was attacked in a school bathroom. It has similar tones to my book The Law of Retaliation, but it's mostly a dark and disturbing mystery book. But, if you enjoy my books, I think you'll still like this one. It has some very violent surprise that I don't want you to miss and I just think it's a great story. Please give it a chance when it releases.

I'm still undecided when it comes to 2019, although I already have a book written for next year. Part of me wants to experiment with new subgenres within extreme horror, part of me wants to continue writing some of the same old stuff ("if it ain't broken, yadda yadda..."), and part of me wants to write bigger, more daring books, meaning I would stick to the same formula but make the books more epic. Of course, if I went with the latter, that would probably mean I couldn't release a book every month next year. So, I have some decisions to make.

Regardless, I think 2019 is going to be a good year. And I hope you've enjoyed my releases so far this year. Thanks for reading! I always appreciate it!

Writing Updates for March 2018—New Releases and a Big Sale!

Hey! It's been a while since the last update, but I actually have some news to share. Be warned: if you follow my Facebook page, you probably already know all of this.

So, on March 22nd, I'm releasing my next book, Grandfather's House. The book follows Malcolm, a sixteen-year-old troublemaker who is sent to live with his grandparents after a prank goes wrong. Malcolm initially believes the stay will be simple. His hopes are shattered after he bumps heads with his grandfather, Ronald O'Donnell. And, unfortunately for Malcolm, Ronald is a staunch supporter of corporal punishment. His grandfather plans on disciplining Malcolm in order to 'save' him from himself. This is my longest book to date. It has more buildup than any of my previous books, but I think the climax is worth it.

On April 19th, I'll be releasing Party Games. This novel follows a group of estranged friends who gather at a cabin in the woods for a reunion party. Their party is interrupted by a charming young man named Chase Bowen, who happens to be stranded due to a broken-down car. Chase is allowed to join the party while he waits for a mechanic. Chase has different plans for the partygoers, though. He wants to play 'party games.' In his version of these games, however, there are sadistic consequences for losing. This is a violent novel inspired by Michael Haneke's Funny Games.

I'm already preparing May's book, too. I'm still tinkering with the title, though. The book is sort of like a cross between Natural Born Killers and I Saw The Devil, two amazing films. It might be one of my most violent novels to date. I'll share more details soon, but it's still a few months away. Keep your eyes peeled for that.

I'm also having a big sale right now. You can buy several of my books for $0.99/£0.99. Check out the deals below and thanks for reading!
