Christmas is done, but New Year's is coming, and with it New Year's resolutions! Two great ones that I might suggest: read more, and support more indie creatives. Pick up one of my books, including my latest, "Nadia and Aidan," and you can do both!

I have a new book out! "Nadia and Aidan" is a novella, following two fraternal twins from France who come to the US to get in touch with their American heritage. You can get it at Amazon in paperback, Kindle, and Kindle Unlimited. www.amazon.com/dp/B0DPKXRP16

One of my favorite characters I've written is Brando, an homage to our late cat of the same name. An attorney, Reform Rabbi, and amateur MMA fighter, he's always there to offer Colvin his support. Pick up "Holtman Arms" at Amazon in paperback or on Kindle to read more! www.amazon.com/dp/B0CN9FKKXS

The next one needs to be “The Wrong Cool Cat” directed by David DeCoteau, and maybe they’ll be back.

It is no longer Black Friday, or Cyber Monday. It might be Taco Tuesday, but none of this is applicable to the fact that personally signed copies of all my books are still available at dumb-industries.com and are fun reads, not to mention great Xmas gifts.

They call it Cyber Monday, but Tuesday’s just as bad, which is my nonsensical way of saying you have till midnight tonight to get 15% off personally signed copies of all my books, including my latest novel, JACK & JILL: FURY HILL, at dumb-industries.com.

Today is the last day of the Black Friday sale at dumb-industries.com, where you can get personally autographed copies of my books, including the two novels I published this year, DARK APNEA, and JACK & JILL: FURY HILL, for 15% off. Order now! I said, NOW!

I hate how over the years we’ve lost the true meaning of Black Friday, how its become less spiritual and more commercialized, all about sales and deals, like for instance 15% off personally signed copies of my books at dumb-industries.com all weekend.

People are saying my new all-ages novel JACK & JILL: FURY HILL is a fun, enjoyable read, and a personally autographed copy purchased at dumb-industries.com would be a great Xmas gift. Really, people are saying this. (And by “people,” I mean, “me.”)
