Small delay on release!

In case anyone is wondering why Flagler's Few and Victor's Revenge is not up and available for online purchase yet, it is because I'm making corrections and it's unfortunately taking me longer then I wanted. I apologize for the delay and promise to have it out as soon as possible! Things have been pretty hectic on my end...

Thank you for your patience!

TAPS comes back to Savannah!


Hey fellow ghost fantatics!

Since SYFY's Ghost Hunters came on the air back in 2005, I've been a fan, especially when comparing it to the other paranormal reality shows (all of which fall short on the validity but overdose on the theatrics). However, it does get frustrating being lumped in with all the crazy people who became investigators BECAUSE of Ghost Hunters. Every now and again it just irks me to be asked "Did you get into ghosts because of Jason and Grant?"...ugh.

But, one thing consistently bugged me...and that was why haven't the boys and girls of TAPS returned to Savannah, Georgia? One of the top three most haunted cities in the nation (and my current residence). At first I suspected something underhanded went on at the Sorrell-Weed House (known in their first annual Halloween Special as the "Bader House", which interestingly enough isn't featured on ANY of their DVDs). I thought maybe someone played a trick on them, or that the famous hospitality of the south fell short when they visited the Coastal Empire. Since then they have not returned to Savannah, and I thought maybe they never would...

However, that theory has recently been thrown out the window. A friend and current producer for the show contacted me a month ago asking for any advice on local cases. I immediately referred to her some locations, including a professional friend of mine who's house has been featured on a number of shows and on Robert Redford's film The Legend of Bagger Vance. Within a month, TAPS has set up a scheduled investigation and last night that investigation took place...


As you can see the house is beautiful. I don't want to give away too much information about the case for fear of incurring the network's, production company's and of course Jay and Grant's wrath, but the house does have a prominent haunting of which it's owner says has no problem presenting itself on cue.


Personally, it's a pretty big deal for me. As a paranormal investigator it's very exciting to be able to say I had a hand in a high profile investigation like this. I myself will be conducting an investigation into this home in the upcoming months. Look for this investigation and many more in the upcoming episodes of Ghost Hunters, only on SYFY...

...check your local listings. :-P

IT'S COMING!!!


Hey guys! Here is a sneak peak at the cover of Flagler's Few and Victor's Revenge. The layout is sorta rough right now. I haven't tweaked it enough yet, but the cover art is done by my very good friend Sandi Strand. She's a fabulous artist, and you should check out her work at bellsandy.com.

The book will be released as scheduled in mid to late July. Look for it then!

News! News! News!

Great news from Saint Augustine! Bookstores are selling out of Flagler's Few and the Reaper of Saint George Street!

Both Second Read Books and Flagler's Legacy have contacted me in the same week with requests for more copies! No word on who's buying them out, but it's a very uplifiting and positive feeling you get when you know you're work is appreciated! In the case of Flagler's Legacy, I had only sent them their copies less then a week earlier!!!

In other news, Flagler's Few and Victor's Revenge is less then 3 days from completion! At least in the art end, next I'll spend a week working on word bubbles and construction of the book. Sandra Strand will be mailing me the cover no later then July 1st, and I am really hoping to have it available for all of my fans by no later then July 15th, earlier if I can!

Next up after this? I'll be starting work on Wild Onion Press's Here Comes Julie Jack, a children's novel about a little death girl and her adventures. After that, there will be revision time for Azteca, and hopefully starting in September/October, I'll begin work on Flagler's Few and the Pirate's Skull of Fury...as well as Destination: Unknown.

I'll be on Beyond Ghost Radio next month!

More to come!!!

Haha! No seriously, I'm excited about this Sunday. I'll be on at 4pm. Come Check out Jason, Bob and Robyn's show, Strange Frequencies Radio.

A "LOST" Tribute to the fans...




I know I've been on quite a tangent with the non-art, non-Flagler's Few posts, but this is the last one, only because I feel I owe
it to one of my favorite shows and a great inspiration for storytelling. The ABC show LOST was a great weekly event for me
as it was to the shows loyal fans who stuck through it's six chaotic seasons.

My sister found this great dedication video done by none other then a set of devoted LOST fans. GREAT production guys,
my hats off to you, I've been singing this rap in my head all day.

Check it out! (Warning: Only LOST fans will really appreciate it.)

It's called I'll Never Be Lost Again...
