Do you need a THRIILLER?
I have a thriller.
You wanna ebook?
How 'bout paperback?
Maybe audiobook while you're on the train, cleaning the house, fishing, whatever.
Just click the link.

How to Market a Damn Thriller

The ongoing debate (it's now a lenthy saga) about whether to show my face on social media or not. Why do you have to see my face to buy my book?

A preview of my latest Instagram post. My debut thriller, Forever Gone, officially published today. My first self published novel– it feels like an incredible feat. I'm proud to be here, excited / nervous for what's next, and thrilled (no pun intended) to share this story with the world. #booksky

I've decided that I can do what I can with my community, but there's not much else I can do about the presidents of the two countries where I live. I'll de-stress in my garden and write. #farm #write #garden #tΓΌrkiye #nostresslife

Life on the Other Side of the World Moving to a farm in TΓΌrkiye isn't something most people would do

Life on the Other Side of the World

I live in TΓΌrkiye half of each year and write about expat life on an off-grid farm. Want to join me? (All my Substacks are free. I don't want your money.)

There should be bipartisan concern about the reports that DOGE is merging HHS, Social Security, and IRS data into one database.

That is the trifecta of personal information, and any competent person (or machine) could essentially put together a complete profile of your life.

Doing the final read-aloud proof of my novel before publication. I paid for TWO line edits, one with additional proofing. So why do I have two or three significant errors every few sets of pages? Learned my lesson. If anyone has a GOOD proofreader, can you let me know?

Hi Viper! Any way to get The Midnight King in ebook or audio book in the United States? Only coming up hardback on my Amazon US account. Have you distributed to other sites? Not finding on any other outside US accounts either.
