Also available is another audiobook! This one is the fifth in the Corgi Case Files series: Case of the Muffin Murders. If you prefer the Audible.com link, click here. Once more, it’s narrated by the talented Bob Johnson, who does a superb job telling the story. If you haven’t already, check it out!

NaNoWriMo starts November 1st. I’m proud to say that I’ll be participating once more. Yes, it’ll be for another mystery title, namely Case of the Ostentatious Otters (CCF #8). After that, I should have my brand new fantasy ready to write. New characters, new world, new magic, and new creatures! For those fans of Lentari, fear not. We haven’t seen the last of everyone’s favorite husband and wife team. They’ll be back!

One last thing to tell you guys. Audible.com informed me that all the promo codes they have given me with regards to my audiobooks will be expiring November 18th, which means I have several dozen promo codes I can give away. They’ll work for any of my audiobooks, so if you’re willing to leave a review, send me an email and I’ll send you a code. It’s first come, first served, so let me know as soon as possible if you’re interested.

Until next time!

Paperback giveaway!

I hope everyone had a great summer! As for me, it was a blast, only the weather here in Arizona is still incredibly warm. Summer just doesn’t wanna let go of us.

I went to put one of my paperbacks up for a giveaway on Goodreads, which I’ve done countless times, only they are now asking an outrageous amount to do it. Me, being the cheapskate that I am, refused, so no more Goodreads giveaways for me. Therefore, I’ll host my own giveaway, here on my blog. So, if you’re interested in getting a free paperback copy of any of the books that I have currently released, make sure you’re signed up for the newsletter AND leave a comment below (specify which title you’d like). I’ll choose a name at random and, regardless where you’re at, I’ll send the book to you.

Good luck to all who enter!

Busy summer!

I hope everyone is having a great summer thus far.  As many of you will recall, I’ve stated for the record – numerous times – that I’m not fan of the Arizona summer.  What do you expect?  It can easily hit 120+ during the day and only drop to the mid 90s at night.  Oh, we mustn’t forget to factor in the fantastic monsoon seasons which plague the desert.  Just a few days ago it looked (& felt) like a horizontal tornado touched down outside.  Houses sustained roof damage.  Trees were knocked over.  Hell, even mailboxes were blown into the street.

Be that as it may, I wanted to give you guys an update.  As you can probably see from yesterday’s protected post, my latest fantasy novel is in the hands of my Posse.  By now, I’m sure they’ve ripped it to shreds.  Oh, well.  I’ll take whatever help I can get, guys.  And for those of you that know me, I really could use the help! 🙂   May the Fang Be With You (Pirates of Perz #1) is slated to be released at the end of the month.  I’ve got the preorder in place for Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Apple, and so on.  Amazon is a little easier.  I can upload the files directly to them and have the book ready for purchase in probably less than four hours.

Case of the Pilfered Pooches (Corgi Case Files #4) should be finished by the end of the month, too.  That should (knocking on wood) mean that it’ll get a mid August release.  Then it’ll be back to Lentari for me as the second novel of the Pirates of Perz series will be at the plate.

Also, I have a Goodreads Giveaway going for Case of the Fleet-Footed Mummy (Corgi Case Files #2).  If you haven’t already, jet over there to check it out and sign up!   I’d also like to tell everyone that Smashwords is having a month-long sale for those authors who have enrolled their books.  Well, I’ve enrolled mine, which means the 9 books I’ve published that has a price tag on it will have dropped in price by 50%.  If there’s a title or two you haven’t picked up yet, and have been waiting for the most opportune time to finish your library, now’s the time.  Use the “Smashwords” link on the right side, under “Retailers”.  The coupon code is “SSW50”.

I’d also like to reveal the covers for my next two books.  You might have noticed the tiny thumbnails on the right of the blog, under “Works in Progress”.  Here they are, in better resolution:

Joe Shawcross, the same gentleman who drew the Close Encounters of the Magical Kind cover, kindly took on the commission to create this one.  Once more, I think Joe did a fantastic job.  I told him I needed an oskorlisk attacking a pirate ship, with a green dragon in the air and – if possible – a castle in the background.

 

 

 

 

 

Then we have the cover for my next mystery novel.  This one is a tribute to my family’s dogs.  My father has three chocolate labs.  You’ll see two of them in the background, playing with a rope.  My mother has the two cocker spaniels, and of course, I have the red & white corgi.  I thought it was a novel way to get everyone’s dogs on the cover of a book.  An artist by the name of Felipe, living in Brazil, is responsible for this cover.  He also illustrated #2 and #3 as well.  Felipe, you’re doing a helluva job!

 

 

 

I think that’s it for now.  I hope everyone is in the mood to read!  I’m gonna be having two releases fairly close to each other.  I hope my fantasy fans will give the mystery a try, and I hope the mystery fans will pick up one of my fantasies and give it a try.  But, even if they don’t, I am damn proud to be writing books that you’re enjoying.  Feel free to look me up on Facebook to say hello!  I’ll always take the time to answer any messages that come my way!

Meet the Pirates of Perz!

Well, it took wayyyy longer than I had hoped, but the first novel in my new Pirates of Perz series has been finished.  I’m giving it to my primary proofer (my wife!) as soon as she returns from her business trip.  Once she goes through it, it’ll then be given to my Posse.

Meet the pirates:

  • Flinn – one pompous, over-confident captain with a very surprising jhorun.
  • Rusty – quartermaster.  Always seem to know where to find the treasure.
  • Von – pirate with an indefatigable sense of direction.  Would much rather be anywhere else than here.
  • Jino – a vicious fighter with an inferiority complex.
  • Casimir – brings out the fear in everybody.
  • Pedr – lowly cabin boy.
  • And Puck, and Arik, and Grenden, and Alquin, and…

There you have it.  That’s the crew of the Emberbrand.  Quite possibly the most notorious pirate ship of the Seven Kingdoms.  If only they would have stayed retired, then they would have stayed out of trouble.  As it is, they’re looking for an all-powerful stone.  Guess where they think it is?  Yep!  In everyone’s favorite magical kingdom… Lentari!

Now, with that out of the way, guess what?  It’s time to return to Pomme Valley for a spell.  A rash of dognappings has been happening, and its up to Sherlock and Watson to figure out who is responsible, and poor Zack to decipher the clues he’s been given!  As always, it’s chock full of humor, corgi antics, and colorful relatable characters living in a small southwestern Oregon town.  I’ll keep you posted on its progress!

Anyone see any good movies lately?  My wife and I saw Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2 last week.   Well, did we like it?  Hmm.  I do think there was more humor and more fun in the first.  I’m not really sure what the point was to the second movie, nor how it was supposed to fit into the Marvel “master plan” they are always touting.  I guess time will tell.  The first Guardians got a solid A.  The second Guardians gets a B-.  Maybe you guys liked it a little bit better.

Starting tomorrow, there’s a new Goodreads giveaway happening for one of the mystery novels.   Case of the Fleet-Footed Mummy (Corgi Case Files #2) is up for grabs for residents of the US, UK, Canada, Ireland, Germany, France, Spain, Sweden, and Australia.  I think that’s all of them.  Anyway, the giveaway goes live at midnight tonight!  It’ll run from the first of June all the way through the end of July.  Good luck!  I hope everyone enters!

Two Books at the Same Time?

Yep.  I’m currently working on 2 books at the same time.  Those would be books #13 & #14.  I’ve had numerous people ask about the 7th Tales of Lentari novel.  What I can tell you instead is that there’s a brand new Lentari series starting up.  It’s going to be a trilogy.  If you want to get technical, it could be called Tales of Lentari #7, but instead, it’ll be Pirates of Perz #1.

May the Fang Be With You (Pirates of Perz #1).  It’s the 10th novel set in Lentari.

Case of the Pilfered Pooches (Corgi Case Files #4).  For those of you who enjoy mystery novels, feel free to return to Pomme Valley for a spell!

Both books should be written by the end of the month.  I already have the cover made for Pirates of Perz #1.  I’ll contact my artist in Brazil (for the mystery novels) in a few weeks so he can get started on that cover.

It’s going to be a great month!  Stay tuned!  Oh, I’m also thinking about starting up some Goodreads Giveaways again.  Which book should I put out there?  You can vote for your favorites below.  Be sure to include which title you’re interested in AND which country you’re in so I can be sure they’re included!
