Happy Release Day

...to me! *throws confetti*

Seriously though, it's been such a long time since I've had one of these I'd forgotten just how exciting they can be. When I was releasing via small publishers, it was easy to feel somewhat distant from the whole process, and while self-publishing is certainly not for the faint-hearted, there's a very gratifying sense of hands-on engagement involved. I've already learned a great deal from the process, and hopefully I'll continue to do so as I work through revising and re-releasing the out-of-print works in my back catalog.

I'm currently working on a re-write of "The House on Sheridan Street", which was always one of my favourites to write (it definitely features one of my all-time favourite scenes!) but likely suffered from being crammed into the 20k word limit required of the original Torquere Press Arcana line (waaaay back in 2008, which is... terrifying, frankly!). With the freedom to extend and expand, I can get a little deeper into Gale and Nathan's backstories and hopefully make the whole story richer. We shall see!

Thank you so much to those of you who have already picked up a copy of "Hung Up"!

Hung Up -- Excerpt

It's 10 days until the release of "Hung Up", so to whet your appetite for cocky cowboys and grouchy veterinarians, here's a sneak peek at an excerpt from Chapter One!

He arrived in town five minutes shy of a thunderstorm, and, all things considered, Billy Valentine figured that was the story of his life.

After pitching up the trailer at the fairground, he took refuge from the deluge in the cab of his truck, where the heater and the radio blared, and the letter he’d picked up that morning sat on the pile of junk in the passenger seat. He glared at it through three songs straight, as though that might influence the contents.

Get a fucking grip, Billy…

Despite the soothing drum of the rain on the windshield, the sound of paper tearing jangled his nerves. Unfolding the neat, letter-headed paper inside the envelope, he scanned the impersonally polite letter until he got to the part that began, "Unfortunately, your application was not successful."

Of course it wasn’t. Crumpling up the letter and the envelope, he shoved both into the pocket of his jacket.

Sanctuary: The Four of Swords by Cat Kane

Jay is on his way to a retreat, leaving LA and his Hollywood job behind to deal with his anger management issues. Popping an A-list star in the nose isn’t great for the career. He thinks he’s found the end of the earth, and Jay just knows he’s going to be bored to tears.

Then he meets Noah, the grandson of the retreat owner, and the slow life suddenly seems a heck of a lot more interesting. Noah may be young and optimistic, but he’s got a much better handle on life than Jay. Can he teach Jay about the things that are really important?

Under This Cowboy's Hat, edited by Rob Knight -- available in print and ebook

The cowboy is a larger than life figure, a legend of the American west. But he's also very much a part of modern life, whether he rides a horse or a pick-up truck, whether he works cattle or works the rodeo circuit.

Under this Cowboy's Hat is all about the cowboy, his life and loves, his work and his play. Each story takes a slice of a cowboy's life and serves it up hot, letting the reader in on a world most folks only dream about.

Masked Riders, by Parhelion, is set in 1860s California. Richne'er-do-well Jesse is sent to a relation's ranch to deal with a ghost rider who seems Hell bent on making trouble. When Wardley Bridger is sent along to keep Jesse out of trouble, sparks fly. On the trail or off, these two have to deal with their feelings for each other, and try to solve the mystery of the masked rider.

In Hung Up, by Cat Kane, rodeo cowboy Billy is looking for a little companionship. When he finds Spence, he thinks he might have just what he needs. But Spence has secrets he's not sure he wants to share, and Billy has something to hide as well. Can these two learn to trust?

Rounding out this trip of stories is Ricochet, by BA Tortuga. Holt is coming off a bad break-up. So bad that it's left him with holes that are physical as well as mental. His old friend Teague comes to help him find his way home, back to Texas, and the life he thought he'd lost forever. Can they stand strong against the ricochet of Holt's past?
