Just a heads up: Although I may post a "political-ish" post from time to time, the purpose of this account is to talk about writing (mostly my own). I just don't want to disappoint anyone who might be expecting anything else. No hard feelings if you want to unfollow as a result. :-)

Paperbacks of my #hardboiled #detective series with the new covers arrived! I couldn't be happier with them. The artist (Driope Project) did a fantastic job on the art.

What are you reading to celebrate #Noirvember? Below are my favorite #scifi cross-genre reads. Add your #noir favorites!
Hard copies of the books in the "Murder on the Starship Australis" series: Chivalry Will Get You Dead, Murders in the Gray, and A Violent Man.

UPDATE! 🌹🎉

I realize not many people have access to much right now, so I put the eBook version of Beyond The Mark down to the lowest I could on Amazon, which is $0.99

Hope this helps it become more accessible, I'd rather continue the story than make money, so I hope you enjoy!

A stylized cover art for the book titled "Beyond the Mark: Ashes of the Hero," featuring a silhouette of a cloaked figure in a dark, magical forest. The figure, shrouded in shadow, is holding a glowing sword with a vibrant red hue. Intricate patterns adorn the figure's cloak, evoking a sense of mystery and fantasy. The background showcases an eerie forest with bare, twisted trees and ethereal lights, creating a mystical and foreboding atmosphere. In the distance, a castle with spires looms against a pale, glowing sky, adding a sense of adventure and danger to the scene. The title is prominently displayed at the top in bold, stylized lettering, with a vivid gradient effect that contrasts with the darker tones of the artwork. The overall composition conveys themes of heroism, darkness, and a journey into the unknown.

Morally, we can only kill if we justify it, which is why we have become so very good at justifying it.

So I've been lamenting that Amazon hasn't matched the free price of Ronin of Vine Street in the US when today I suddenly realized that Amazon has matched the free price in the UK! I'm not complaining, but interesting that they didn't choose the US. 🤔 #booksky

Ronin of Vine Street is now available in paperback for only $6.99 which is just a little above cost for me (like .50 cents), so if you'd like a physical copy, go for it!
