Returning from the woods always inspires an increased thirst for writing. I am quenching it daily by working on the manuscript for a new novelette. I am announcing here, however, that my novella Slash of Crimson, originally published in 2012 by Rymfire Books, will be released in a new edition, along with a substantial number of shorter works, as Slash of Crimson and Other Tales, by Charon Coin press.

I’m excited to be working with a new publisher, and have this definitive edition produced by Charon Coin founder Jerry Benns and editor Margie Colton. This expanded release will be twice the length of the original, with the new material comprising the novelette and a substantial list of fresh short stories. I invite any reader who loves headily high-octane horror, full of gruesome action coupled with erotic allure, to give Slash of Crimson and Other Tales a try.

For the release date we are currently looking at spring 2015, however, I will keep the blog updated as the editing process nears completion. I hope the new stories will be as enjoyable to read as they were to write, and also serve well as a prelude to several full length novels in the The Crimes of Heaven and Hell series that will follow.
