My next book—RESONANCE—will be released on October 13th: a.co/d/9VmAfb5

I was supposed to set up at one of the local outdoor markets tomorrow, but the weather is not looking great—high % chance of rain. Not good for books! So that might be a wash 😞 Still, my new book comes out on Monday the 13th!

I need him to start in the film adaptations of one of my books and one of my short stories. He would be perfect!
