Happy 2007! Yeah, I know I'm a little late with that. I haven't posted any news in a while, most of my stuff is still in-progress right now, but I still I thought I'd share... My tech-horror novelette, PANDORA'S GATES, (originally scheduled to come out through Wicked Karnival's Grafix merger), is coming out this upcoming month (the March 2007 edition) at CHIMAERA SERIALS [http://www.chimaeraserials.com/index.html]... it's a story in the "Book of Dark Memory" series. Wrote a handful of new poems, a continuation of my "Condemned of Heaven" cycle, and I'll be shopping them around for publication to the various poetry journals... I finished that new Moon-Chosen/Quinn vampire-noir saga and it morphed from a standard length novella into a 52,000 word long novella/short novel. The novella is titled ENDLESS NOCTURNES. I am very satisfied with the final product and that is a VERY rare thing for me. I am shopping it around for a publisher currently, and I'm hoping Insidious Publications will pick it up... I'm a little over a quarter of the way through writing KRYMSIN NOCTURNES (25,800 words to-date), another in the Montgomery Quinn/Moon-Chosen series, which will eventually be a full-length 90,000 word epic. I've already started sending out queries and synopses ... it's becoming increasingly more difficult to find a market for vampire stories unless you're going the paranormal romance or humorous-horror route and, sorry, my Moon-Chosen series is action-suspense vampire-noir all the way. Hardcore 'till I die and no apologies! Hoping it will find a home by the time I finish it, which probably won't be until early this summer at this rate... I'm almost finished with my mainstream project: MEDUSA'S WRATH, a long serial killer mystery-suspense novel (89,900 words so far & the 3rd draft). This project has been a real bitch: lots of police procedural research, abnormal psych/behavioral criminology research and forensics research. Not to mention that the original file for the story was destroyed due to infection from a Trojan virus (and I was changing computers, so I lost my backup file, too) and I had to recreate everything from the incomplete first draft hardcopy I had tucked away. Other than that, I've resumed (after an extended absence) posting to my blog site, the BLACKCHAPEL WAX HOUSE, over on Blogger -- it's a steam-punk oriented horror serial, Eight chapters and growing, and a lot of fun! Anyway, that's it for me. I hope to be able to follow up with some decent news of real weight soon! Take care, folks, and THANKS for listening! |
