Several hundred years in the future of Earth, humadroid Aaron Dunarc wants to fix one thing about his body. He’s on a mission to acquire a real human nose, not the flat thing above his mouth that humadroids normally have.

Exciting new #mystery collection good on phone, tablet or book. Read how grievances lead to crime. It's not always pretty.

To all the "young ladies" who try to follow me on Bluesky: You should know that I'm neither rich nor famous. Also, I'm actually old enough to be a statue. I'm not looking for a girlfriend, so don't try to be one. #truth

If you like colorful book covers, take your pick. But underneath, we still have the same great story in The King of Bostria: goofy #adventure, serious takes on life and a #love story spanning continents. #ebook #urbanfantasy

DO THE CRIME is a tough book of #crime #fiction that leans toward the hard-boiled side. Here, grievances ride high while the players in these dramas try to settle scores and still their pain. #indie

Find the book on bookshop.org (paperback) or go with #ebooks or #paperbacks on the usual sites.
Cover of the crime fiction collection Do the Crime with man standing with his back to us in a narrow space that goes nowhere. The walls are dark, but a harsh light (judgment?) shines down on him.

It has come to my attention that #fiction is too long a word for some #authors to spell out. Although this is sad and distressing, I believe we can all pull together and overcome this problem.

It's amazing how many people ask me to write things for them or to use my work for their projects and tell me how great my writing is right up until the point when I ask for payment, a contract, or a job, at which point my work is suddenly not good enough anymore.

"Griffith's writing style is perfectly suited to the horror genre. It engages the imagination in a way that makes the skin crawl and the spine shiver over and over. Don't think a story has scared me this often since The Exorcist." books2read.com/u/mZd9Eb tinyurl.com/jd7kycr
