Hi Reader,

I hope you're doing well.

Halloween is right around the corner. Yes, it’s August, but Halloween is more of a season than simply a single day where sugar-addicted offspring put on disguises to terrorize the neighborhoods, begging for someone, anyone, to feed their addiction. As much as I love the spooky season, I’ve definitely become the grumpy old man who keeps the porch light off and doesn’t encourage visitors. Of course in our neighborhood people don’t go out for trick-or-treat. They go to 'Halloween in the Park' and the surrounding neighborhood in town.

I’m more likely to be in the mood for a scary movie or a spooky book when it comes to Halloween.

I write every day. For the last couple months, I’ve been writing a new novel. I’m over 90,000 words into this book now. I finished writing the main climax of the book today! The ending is coming up fast. I think it'll come in this side of 100,000 words—so very close!

If you love slashers and supernatural horror—then this is a book for you.

ARC Team

For the first time, I’m looking to start an ARC team. ARC stands for Advanced Reader Copy. The way this works is pretty simple. You sign up to receive an e-book copy of the novel when it goes up for pre-order, before it is released. Members of the ARC team read the book, write and publish a review (on Goodreads, Amazon, etc.), and submit a link to the review when it is posted. Getting reviews can make a big difference to a book’s success. I have a number of not-yet-published books I'll be bringing out. I'm not sure which one will be first yet. If you're interested to being on the ARC team, click the button below and I'll add your name to be notified when an ARC is available.

I've teamed up with a group of other authors of paranormal urban fantasy to offer titles for your TBR pile. Check out the deals and get some great picks for this Halloween season.

Halloween Hearts

The Kickstarter for the Halloween Hearts anthology launches on September 1st — with delivery planned before Halloween. The anthology includes my story "Carver's Walk," a fav of mine. 🎃 Follow now to receive updates.

The editors are also offering a free story now, available on the Kickstarter page.

Until next time, happy reading,

Ryan
