Sequel to "Stargazers"

I'm currently working on a sequel to my sci-fi/horror short story, "Stargazers", which was published in the November 2011 issue of Pro Se Presents #4 (currently available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.com).  The sequel, which will be called "Stargazers: Everglades", will pick up two years after the end of the original story.  Two characters from the original story will appear in the sequel.  The story will follow the same structure and style of the original, such as interconnecting subplots and cliff-hangers.

Chaos and Doom Nearing Completion

My short story collection, CHAOS AND DOOM, is 80 percent complete and will soon be submitted to a publisher for consideration.  I'm working on two more stories for the collection, both of which are progressing rapidly.  The first story, which is called "Mainframe", is a science-fiction tale of human survival, which deals with the planet Jupiter and its moons.  The other story, which is currently called "Evicted Tenants", is a Gothic suspense story which deals with unexplained phenomena in a duplex.  These new stories will be included in CHAOS AND DOOM with a sequel to my previously published story, "Stargazers", which appeared in the November 2011 issue of Pro Se Presents #4 (available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble.com).  The working title of the sequel is "Stargazers: Everglades".

Chaos and Doom

One of my writing projects, a short story collection, is now 60 percent complete.  It will mix some of my previously published stories (such as Citadel of the New Moon and an expanded version of Hellhound) with fresh, new material (including two long stories, Kaleidoscope and Claustrophobia).  After trying to come up with a title for the collection, I decided to name it CHAOS AND DOOM, which describes the ominous tone of the various stories in the collection.  More information about the collection will be posted soon.

Morbid Curiosity Update

My dark fantasy/horror novel, MORBID CURIOSITY, is 40% complete.  It's a rewrite of a novel I completed in 1999.  Length and word count restrictions may cause the novel to be split into three parts.  The novel is about a young boy who develops a fascination with death in 1945.  The story shifts to 1969, where he endures the loss of several family members due to his "morbid curiosity".  The last part of the book takes place in the current time.  It's a free-standing novel with a close-ended story line, but characters from the book will appear in simultaneous, overlapping sequels.  More details will be announced soon.
