Just finished the rough draft of the next Brick Ransom novel! Now I’ll be revising it through the end of June. Working on this one at a faster clip than usual, which I think has actually helped it quite a bit. Hope everyone likes it. I’m aiming to release it in November.

After the current Brick Ransom adventure is done, I’m gonna spend the rest of the summer working on book 5, which might be a bit of a departure. Going back to a plot I first tackled in 1999. Came up with the perfect twist to bring it up to 2012 and really pull the finale together perfectly. I think it should be a lot of fun.

I’ll keep you posted. For now, I’ll leave you with the title for Brick Ransom Book 3:

BLOODY PULP

All of my ebooks are FREE through midnight on Wednesday March 14th.

Please help yourselves! I hope you enjoy them!

This past weekend, while outlining Brick Ransom’s third adventure, I came across something I’ve mentioned in the past, but which I thought I had lost years ago.

16 years ago, while working as a bookseller at R. J. Julia in Madison, CT, I waited on a customer who came in to special order a book. After he left, I wrote his name on the back of a bookmark, as I thought it would be the perfect name for a hard boiled detective in a screenplay or novel. It took me thirteen years, but I finally used that name. He’s now my signature character:

With today’s announcement that R. J. Julia is up for sale, I thought there was no better time to share this little birth certificate with everyone.

If you’re in the area, why not swing by one of the country’s greatest bookstores and buy “Seattle On Ice” in the place where it all began?

The most exciting news in 2012 so far?

“Seattle On Ice” is now at Elliott Bay Book Company, the best indie bookstore in Seattle! Would have been ideal to have the book in there for the snow and ice storms last week, but I’m hoping local readers still have snowpocalypse 2012 fresh in their minds and the cover will jump out at them as a result.

If you happen to be in Seattle, you should swing by my favorite bookstore and look for the book!
