  • Goodbye TinyLetter; Hello MailerLite

    Goodbye TinyLetter; Hello MailerLite

    canister x transmission collections

    Well, MailChimp pulled the plug on TinyLetter, the newsletter engine I’ve using to send THE CANISTER X TRANSMISSION for about eight years. It was a great platform because it had a simple and direct, user-friendly interface and was perfect for a text-based newsletter like mine. But, alas, all good things must come to an end, I suppose, so thanks to fellow author Bobby Nash, he turned me on to MailerLite and from there I’ll be able to continue to send out new issues of the newsletter week after week. This change, of course, will involve some link adjusting and some web design stuff since all my sites have the TinyLetter subscribe box.

    Either way, we now have a new provider and there should be no interupption in service.

    You’ll also receive a free thriller novelette upon subscribing. Goes out Saturdays.

    Goodbye, Tinyletter. Thank you for your service.

    If you’d like to be a part of THE CANISTER X TRANSMISSION while I finish getting things all set up, please email me and I’ll add you to the subscriber list. You can also use the form above. The email-me option is there in case of glitches.

    Thanks.

    As my YouTube channel begins to grow, at this present stage I’ve come to a point where I had to adjust my playlists to keep things more ogranized for those who view and/or follow playlists.

    There are the news ones I created and organized. I have plans to tweak and adjust some more, but this is my start:

    Hot Wheels Batman Batmobile Playlist

    Funko Pop! Collection

    Hot Wheels Shorts and Reels

    Patron-exclusive Videos

    Promotional Videos

    Superman Collectible Shorts and Reels

    My Top Videos!

    So as you can see, 5 lists were created to better sort the channel which makes for easier navigation.

    Feel free to explore the above and don’t forget to subscribe to the Realm of Heroes and Monsters on YouTube. Helps keep the book and comic machine going.

    Peace.

  • Blood of the Dead Book Spotlight

    Blood of the Dead Book Spotlight

    Blood of the Dead title card thumbnail

    One year ago, the world came to an end.

    First came the rain.

    Then came the screams.

    Then came the undead.

    The Haven became the only place in the city free of the walking dead. A place of community. A place to be safe.

    Now, things have changed.

    The zombies are coming to the Haven, seeking out the remaining survivors of the human race.

    Joe Bailey prowls the Haven’s streets, taking them back from the undead, each kill one step closer to reclaiming a life once stolen from him. Billie Friday and Des Nottingham soon have Joe to thank for their lives.

    As the dead push into the Haven, the trio is forced into the one place where folks fear to tread: the heart of the city, a place overrun with flesh-eating zombies.

    They soon discover they are not the only humans there. After meeting an old man with a peculiar past, Joe and the others must make one last stand against the undead or unwillingly meet the same fate.

    A desperate escape leads them to a place thought impossible to exist and to a discovery that will shake the future.

    Welcome to the end of all things.

    It is true.

    There are two tiers and they’ll be displayed in full on launch day, but to sum them up, they are:

    All-Access: $5. For just five bucks a month you get everything content that I put on the Web plus the following just for you:

    Patreon artwork collection

    Artwork only revealed here. Nowhere else. Public art is here.

    Patreon serial novels

    It began with GIGANTI-GATOR DEATH MACHINE and continues with TWO other running serials.

    Photos taken EXCLUSIVELY for this page. Sometimes I add my own sparkle, other times not, but they’re always interesting.

    Patreon quick notes collection

    Quick little notes or did-you-knows just for you.

    Usually bits of info that are hopefully insightful or useful.

    Patreon essays collection

    For those interested in the craft of storytelling through various mediums, both the creative side and the business side.

  • Caught in Black Headlights: An In-between Book?

    Caught in Black Headlights: An In-between Book?

    Caught in Black Headlights Notebook

    ZOMTROPOLIS is gonna be out soon and then I’ll be neck-deep in THE AXIOM-MAN SAGA writing three books for that before releasing them so my readers know for certain the story arc I’ll be doing will done and complete in 2024.

    I’ve been picking away at CAUGHT IN BLACK HEADLIGHTS for years. It’s a poetry book, my fourth thus far. Poems about life, observation, some feelings. Trying something new with my poetry style. I think what’s going to end up happening is I’ll be airing CAUGHT IN BLACK HEADLIGHTS at Patreon 2.0 as in-between book, a pre-online publication alongside ZOMTROPOLIS, which is being serialized there.

    All really depends how much I have to say because poetry is about saying something, hopefully something with meaning and some sort of impact.

    We’ll see.

    In the interim, STILL ABOUT A GIRL is coming back out so you can get your poetry fix through that in the meantime.


  • The Way of the Fog and Still About a Girl Returning to Life

    The Way of the Fog and Still About a Girl Returning to Life

    Way of the Fog and Still About a Girl

    A long time ago I wrote an epic fantasy (253k words) called THE WAY OF THE FOG: VOLUME ONE OF THE ARK OF LIGHT. It came out in hardcover only. That hardcover is returning. As for paperback and eBook versions, I’ll have to figure something out because the core files were lost in The Great Computer Crash of 2010. I have some ideas on how to recover the files, but it’ll take some time.

    As well, my poetry book, STILL A ABOUT A GIRL, is returning to print. It was my third poetry collection and came out early in my career. No reason to not have it out there again. It’s a collection of poems about love and loss and how it changes you.

    Stay tuned for more news as these projects return.

    In the meantime, lots of books to choose from both here and at Amazon to keep you reading company. Thanks.
