I'll start:
✅ high-tech gadgetry
✅ ghostly visitations
✅ outlandish drug trips
✅ stalker ex-boyfriend
✅ evil corporations
✅ college kids
❌ a linear narrative
❌ clear-cut heroes and villains
❌ a love triangle... oh wait, whoops
✅ a love triangle

I've done short #fiction collections, but today is my solo debut! #DRECK is a new #dreampunk #novella exploring the #tech of today through my own peculiar #PhilipKDick-esque lens. Thanks to #JeffNoon for the blurb!

Now to let a rest a bit before starting my slash & burn self-editing rounds.

Here it is, the official book cover for my debut novel ACROSS THE ASTRAL FRONTIER.
What started as a creepy little scifi/horror short story expanded into a dream come true. Cheers, and I hope you all enjoy it when it comes out (very soon!!)
BIG thank you to ASAP Imagination and be sure to check out their catalog of books, graphic novels, and comics

Good Morning Everyone,
I wanted to express my thanks & say how overwhelmed I was by the massive response to my post about my issue with Amazon. So many people boosted my post and/or offered advice. This is truly a wonderful community.
I have an update as of this morning: Amazon says they cannot distribute my books in Germany under my current name. My books are still for sale everywhere else.

How many of you do direct sales from your website? What do you wish you knew when you first started?

The issue seems to be that we share the same name. I can't help that. I write under my legal name, but use my first & last initials. I also have legal US copyrights for all my published books. I replied to the notice explaining this.
Anyone dealt with this? Advice? Anyone have a phone number for Amazon? Thanks!

Spent yesterday & will spend today & likely tomorrow searching for possible "problem" words, tweaking, & polishing. 🥱 It's not my favorite part, but such is the life of an author. At least the weather is warming so I might sit outside with the laptop this afternoon. 😊
