New book in beta, and another just getting started!

I once knew a guy who insisted that January was the coldest month of the year. I went back and forth with him on it, I always felt it was more December that was the freezing month. Well, I think THIS January is sure winning the record. WHOA!!! I’m in the deep south too, and I know what you folks up north would probably say, “That’s nothing, what you’ve got down there!” Well for folks in the north, yeah, our cold here can’t compete with you, but it’s certainly a relative amount of suffering via low temps all around!

So, an update on where I’m at in the writing world. “Cataclysm Epoch” is out for two months as of today. Check out the bookmarks and buttons I had made for it! 

“Cataclysm Epoch” is getting some good reviews, and I’m pleased. The word’s getting out quicker, and thanks to my email list I’m able to reach a lot more people to spread the word faster. Did you know about my email list? I send an email out roughly once a month or so to update on my new releases and also to share free ebook deals I find. You can sign up for free and cancel at any time, no hassles at all. I’ll even throw in a free book just for signing up! Here’s a link: Paul’s Update

I have begun the beta reading process for “Settling Darkness”, the sequel to “Cataclysm Epoch”! I’m targeting a late summer/early fall release this year, so stay tuned! Also working on the untitled THIRD book in this series. Yep, I’m gonna have a trilogy pretty soon! There’s plenty of stories and ideas coming too!

I hope you’re keeping warm, preferably with a good book somewhere!

I need your help, and I’ve got goodies in return!

Hello again, it has been awhile and I wanted to catch you up on what I’ve been up to these past several months.

I’ve submitted my upcoming novel “Cataclysm Epoch” for consideration in the 2017 William Faulkner – William Wisdom Creative Writing Competition in New Orleans.  I’ll know if it made the semi-finals on September 25, and I’m pretty excited about this.  The contest is held annually and has several categories including fiction novels, non-fiction novels, novellas, essays, short stories, even poetry.  I’ll keep you posted on what happens!

In addition, I’m not just sitting here waiting for September 25 to roll around… I’ve started another novel!  This is a sequel to “Cataclysm Epoch” and the second book of my sci-fi trilogy.  I’m 46000 words into the first draft so far and it’s going well.  I have a feeling I’ll be writing in some regard about this character for a long time to come.

And speaking of writing and books, here’s what I meant by the “needing help” part of this post title.  I’m looking for a special group of people that can help me push my writing to the next level.  I want to send you copies of my books, starting with “Cataclysm Epoch” if you’re willing to read and write a review for them.  In return, I’m willing to send you copies of my books before they’re published, for FREE.  Also, I’m putting together some great giveaways like e-readers and gift certificates that you’d be eligible for.  And I’ll even mention your name in the acknowledgements at the front of the book.  There’s no cost to you at all, just a little time and all the free books from me I can churn out, and I’ve got a lot coming up, a sci-fi trilogy for starters!

So, to recap: this group would get the following:

• Free advance copies of my upcoming novels
• Chances to win prizes like e-readers, gift cards, signed books
• Mentions at the start of my book

Sound good?  Interested?  Just head over to the Krewe of Paul sign-up page and sign up for the Krewe of Paul!

Don’t wait too long, though… I’m only taking a limited number of people into this group.  Don’t miss out on all these free books and great giveaways!!!
