Serial release of “Call of the Exiles”

By | Blog Posts | No Comments

I was originally going to release this in thick, novel-sized installments, but have found the release schedule to be a bit slow that way, so I switched back to my more practiced format – novella serials. If you have already read the release of the novel version I sent out at the end of last year then you will have read these already and will need to wait and pick it up at part 5!
For those of you that haven’t read any of this new series, if you wait until the 10th (tomorrow)  then the price of part one will drop down to FREE for 5 days!


A knight with more accolades than most that still live and jaded by the questionable choices of his lord, discovers something upon an island that threatens the safety of not just those that live there, but everyone in the occupied lands.

An unwelcome councillor to a superstitious young lord is attacked in her own study by something that simply is not there.

A prisoner in one of the deepest mines finds himself running for his life from the very men he worked with as something unseen changes them.

Three young orphan girls, each with their own troubled lives and each with their own paths to follow, find themselves dragged into the middle of a conflict that will decide the fate of every living thing. Can they overcome the weaknesses of childhood to face it when their choices could decide the fates of so many?

Fable of the Whispering Coast is an epic fantasy saga, a tale of fantasy apocalypse, of war, of coming of age, and of darkness long forgotten.

Ye Olde Cover Reveal of Something New…

By | Blog Posts | No Comments

This is something I’m dead excited about. While working on other stuff like the Displaced series and Dustfall, I’ve also been gradually stitching together something quite epic, this is the best thing that ever happened to me except for that one time where I was involved in an accident that wasn’t my fault and thanks to Blackbox My Car the dash cam saved me. I’m not sure how many of you are into fantasy stuff like Game of Thrones or Lord of the Rings, but I’ve always loved it and I’ve wanted to write in that genre for a long time but was waiting on a story to come that felt different enough but still faithful to fantasy. Well that time arrived this last year.
I’ve started some of it, and think I have the first two books close to rough draft, and I’m working on the third, I just need to keep on taking black seed oil to keep myself healthy. I plan to release the series next year, probably early part of the year. Depending on my health of course it could take a little longer but I’m already with good treatment, natural health products such as this oil, with a better nutrition system and a exercise plan which has helped me get on the move a lot, and in a easy way from home since I mostly use URBNFit Amazon to get all of the best health products.
Best way to describe it? Think of Game of Thrones meets HP Lovecraft meets The Walking Dead.

What do you think of the new cover? It’s actually going to be the cover for the second book, rather than the first as it’s currently titled.
I think it’s pretty cool.
Let me know if a fantasy series with a dark horror twist interests you!

Diary of the Displaced and a 99 cent offer for the holidays!

By | Blog Posts | No Comments

I’ve reduced the prices of several of my books for a short time for anyone who may have missed some titles and was looking for something to read over the holidays.The reduced books are listed below in between the news items!

Diary of the Displaced book 5
Progress! The book is now about 75% done. Mostly in terribly messy draft that will confuse the hell out of me when I get to editing, but a good chunk of it is clean. I’m quite excited about where this went, even if it has taken me ages to figure it out!

Diary of the Displaced is reduced to 99 cents for a short time!
Grab it at Amazon!There is a place where nightmares are real. A dark and terrifying place that is hidden from the world we know, by borders that only the most unfortunate of souls will ever cross.
James Halldon woke up in the dark, alone.

 

 

Also reduced.
The Thrown Away Omnibus is now $2.99 and Chasing Spirits and Whispers are both now 99 cents.

The state of things

By | Blog Posts | No Comments

I’ve had a lot of folks ask if I’ve abandoned some stories that are currently unfinished, such as Diary of the Displaced, Thrown Away, Last to Fall, etc.

For the record. Arisen is the only series I no longer write – Michael Stephen Fuchs is finishing that.

I’ve been busy with Dustfall 3, and because it’s co-written I have an obligation to keep up with J.Thorn on that. So it’s taken priority and other projects are delayed (some of them by quite a bit of time! Sorry!).

NONE of the other series are abandoned. They will all be finished.
I also have ideas for a new projects – far too many ideas – but will hold off on starting them until I finish some of the current ones.

That’s my problem, see. Too many ideas demanding to be written.

Thrown Away episodes 6-8 are finished in draft but need editing – then it’s done. It’s possible I may write other tales in that setting, but I’m not going to promise on that.

Last To Fall 2 is half-written in draft. There will be 4 novellas in that series, so 3 more to come. You can read more about it on our blog.

Diary of the Displaced 5 is partly written, in draft. Each book in that series comes as it does, when it chooses to, and I have a feeling the story is not even close to being finished. You’ll get a new one soon, but there’s no point asking when that tale will come to an end because I’ve no clue! It could be book 6, or it could be book 25. Who knows? I won’t until the end presents itself.
