Mall Demons Book Cover In Progress

I'm excited to report that my book cover for "The Chosen Must Fall" is moving along nicely. I just saw three sketches, and they looked pretty good.

"The Chosen Must Fall" is Book One in the Mall Demons series. It has taken longer to get the book finished than I had expected. But it's all been a great learning experience. 

Many who have read the prelude, which is available for Kindle users, are eager to read more of the Mall Demons story. That has been very encouraging. Thanks to all who have read it and liked it.

Fantasy Short Story Series on Wattpad

The last week or so I have been going crazy working on a fantasy short story series.

So far I've put out one of the stories to gauge reaction. The plan on the board is for a series of 12 related stories to go with the first one called, "Death Speaks Loudest to Those Who Flee." I posted it on Wattpad, self-dubbed as the most popular e-book community out there.

Here's the teaser to the story:

Demons are lurking, hunting for souls. Death walks and talks and is training demons. In this old folk story retold, a man encounters Death and tries to escape his fate. It is the first of several stories following the demonic hordes as they hunt modern day humans.

Let me know what you think!
