"Camp Blaze: Author's Enhanced Edition" is out now!

Available now!

Camp Blaze: Author's Enhanced Edition is available today on Amazon. You can buy a Kindle copy for $3.99, read it through Kindle Unlimited, or buy a paperback for $14.99 or a hardcover for $19.99.

Camp Blaze: Author's Enhanced Edition is a special extended uncut version of the original book, which released back in 2017. And, since many of you have asked for it, it is now available in paperback and hardcover for the first time ever! It features a beautiful, brand new cover, a completely rewritten story, professional editing, and extended scenes of gruesome violence. In fact, although the core of the story remains the same, this edition includes over 10,000 additional words.

It is a completely new experience. Already own the first edition on Kindle? Your version should be upgraded now for free. (Check your "Manage Your Content and Devices" page on Amazon/Kindle to get the update.)

The story follows a group of counselors at Camp Blaze—a camp with a history of violent tragedy—targeted by a masked killer. As her peers begin vanishing around, head counselor Regina Park races to find the truth and save her friends before it's too late. If you enjoyed my other slashers, such as Do Not Disturb or Night of the Prowler, I think you'll like this one.

As usual, thank you for the support. If you want to see more Author's Enhanced Editions of my older books—some that have never been released in paperback before—don't forget to leave a review on this one. It'll help me determine if it's worth the effort. (Don't forget, I'm human! Books are both expensive and time-consuming to produce!)

Have a great weekend and enjoy,

Writing Updates for January 2017—Upcoming books, new releases, and sales!

Hey! So, I guess this is my first update of 2017. First and foremost, thank you for a wonderful year. I met many of my personal goals last year and I plan on accomplishing more this year. I don't plan on releasing more than one book per month, but I want to deliver better books—quality of quantity is my motto this year.

So, I hope my next two releases are high-quality. In February, I'm releasing my next slasher: Camp Blaze. It's a brutal slasher inspired by Friday the 13th, but it's a lot bloodier. In March, I'll be releasing The Abuse of Ashley Collins. This book takes me back to my 'human' horror roots. It's about the nasty things that people do to each other. It's probably one of the most gruesome, disturbing books I've ever written.

In April, I plan on releasing a new horror novel about a killer child. The book is about a child who speaks to his television—a television that convinces him to kill. It has many themes that reflect society and it never compromises on its brutality. In May, I plan on releasing a stalker horror novel. My first ever stalker book will focus more on disturbing themes and creepy scenes, but, due to some of its graphic violence, I think it still qualifies as 'extreme horror.'

I'm still scheduling summer's schedule. I want to release a psychological horror novel in June, then release another slasher in July. That's what I'm leaning towards anyway.

That's about it for my updates. I'm also having a sale for the next two weeks—99-cent books! You can check out more details about the sale on Facebook. Thanks for reading!

Until next time,
Jon Athan

Writing Updates for December 2016 — "Bad Appetites" is available for pre-order!

Long time, no see! First and foremost, sorry for the lack of updates on this blog. I've been very busy these past few months. I'm a one-man team, so it's difficult to keep track of everything. If you're interested in more frequent updates, you should like my Facebook page or follow me on Twitter. I'll try to keep those updated. Enough apologies, though. Let's get to some quick and efficient book updates.

Bad Appetites is available for pre-order now. This is a body horror novel about a young woman who discovers miracle weight loss pills. All is well until the pills start changing her body, mind, and appetite for the worst... This book is a little different from my usual. The first act works more as a psychological horror/drama while the rest is a traditional grotesque body horror story. If you're tired of my serial killer books, this might be a breath of fresh air for you.

Bad Appetites is out January 7th, 2017, available for $2.99 or free through Kindle Unlimited.

In February, I'll be releasing a slasher novel called Camp Blaze. I've been trying not to spoil much with this one. If you're familiar with my work, this is a slasher like Butcher Road. However, I think this new book is more violent than my previous slasher. It also takes some interesting turns towards the end. Some readers might dislike the grand finale, but, again, I think it's a breath of fresh air. I'll be sharing more details soon. (And I'll continue trying to keep spoilers to myself.)

Also, if you liked my Facebook page, you probably already know what's coming in March 2017: The Abuse of Ashley Collins. This book will take me back to my roots of human horror. It's about the nasty stuff people do to each other. Like some of my other books, this novel will have a subtle message in it, too. It's a very violent and disturbing book, but I'm really trying to say something about abuse — particularly, I'm talking about the cycle of abuse. I think it'll be a powerful book.

I already finished the first draft for April's book. It's also very disturbing and even distressing. I'm currently working on May's book, which is a stalker story.

Anyway, I think that's a large enough update. I'll be back to share details on future releases. I'll try to keep this blog updated, too. Thanks for reading and I hope you have a great 2017!

Until next time,
Jon Athan
