Book Report is an awesome analytics tool for writers who publish via Kindle. It's kind of everything KDP's dashboard should be. And it's free! (For most of us, anyway.)

My story collection URBAN NIGHTMARES is now available as an audiobook, read by the wonderful Quintin W. Allen. The Big Q has also read my short novels WEED (cowritten with Daryl Burns) and BAND OF GYPSIES (cowritten with C. Dennis Moore) and I'm always floored by how stunningly he brings my stories to life. He does some real virtuoso character work in this particular collection. 

Titles in URBAN NIGHTMARES include "Black Cab", "Phone Sex on the Nightside", "Hellcat Prom Night", "The Demon Wind" and "The Streetlight Filled with Flowers". 

Available in print, ebook and audio 
at Amazon, Audible, iTunes

    All subscribers to my newsletter will be receiving a sample audio story from this collection - "Black Cab", complete and uncut - on 4/20/15. If you'd like in on this freebie and similar ones on down the line, simply sign up below!

My friend Ken Goldman is the author of more than 650 published stories; his tales of horror have been published around the small press for decades. About a year ago, Ken collected five of his personal favorites in the DONNY DOESN'T LIVE HERE ANYMORE collection. And just this past week the collection came out as a terrific audiobook read by Andy Garrison, coach at The Actor Training Studio in Kansas City!
I was so impressed with Andy's readings that I asked him to narrate my GREEN RIVER DARK FANTASY TALES  - I can't wait to hear what Andy does with the stories!
Ken's book, in print, ebook and audio, is available on Amazon, Audible and iTunes

    All subscribers to my newsletter received a free sample of Ken's audiobook - the complete story "'Vette Fever", in its entirety! Sign up below if you'd like bonus gifts like this!

Every March my alma mater, Columbia College Chicago, holds a Story Week Festival. It's one of the Windy City's premier literary events of the year. 

I wasn't able to make it this year, which is why I love podcasts like this one, featuring my former mentor Mort Castle as host, plus former mentor Phyllis Eisenstein and former classmate C.S.E. Cooney on the panel along with other luminaries like Jay Bonansinga (The Walking Dead) and Audrey Niffenegger (The Time Traveler's Wife).
