However, it's also 90 days since I released my novel, <i>Magnified and Sanctified</i>, as an ebook on Amazon, so that means it can come out of it's exclusive run in KU today and enter wide release. The audiobook and the paperback are already available everywhere, so now you can get a copy in every available format wherever books are sold online. Just go to <a href="https://books2read.com/Magandsanc">https://books2read.com/Magandsanc</a> to find your favorite retailer.<br /><p></p>J.

My country, that is, not this newsletter. The past year has been a strange one from a historical standpoint here in the US and across the globe, and that creates new challenges for fiction authors. Unless one writes speculative fiction, most fiction is tethered to the actual history of this reality. So now, this reality includes COVID-19, a failed coup, and a black/Asian/female Vice President. Cues written in the text will from now on forever place those stories in either the before times, the during times, or the after times. There's no getting around it. <p></p><p>Fortunately for me, my WIP (work in progress) is dystopian speculative fiction. Which means it can be alternative reality and therefore timeless. In a previous newsletter, I sent an image of the working cover for that story. But I had to change that. The previous title was taken from a quote by a famous fantasy author. I had written the author's estate to ask permission to use the entire quote in an epigraph (the short quote that often precedes the text of a story) in order to give the title context, and I was granted the permission for a fee and only for a 3 year period. So I'm changing the title, and the epigraph, because I prefer that my titles and epigraphs be timeless, just like my fiction. </p><p>Here is the updated cover.<br /></p>J.

<div style="text-align: left;">
Hi, everyone. Long time no see. This is my first post since November.</div>
</div>
<br />
When last we spoke I was posting my audiobook version of <i>8 Tales of Noir</i>, my pulp/crime collection, to all the online audiobook retailers and libraries. The thing is, that even though I published over two months ago, Audible and Amazon are still delaying posting. I have not received any word as to why. And I'm hearing that a lot of other authors are having similar issues. It's very frustrating, especially since I have promised a portion of the proceeds to charity.<br />
<br />
Nonetheless, it is available through numerous retailers including Apple, Chirp, Kobo, and Google. <a href="http://thrillsandmystery.weebly.com/store/p2/8-Tales-of-Noir.html" target="_blank">Here is a link</a> that will take you to all of the currently active online pages if you'd like to check it out.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8BIARDiKyywUoU9hQdywYJtXaTVovJ5JWcqSc2DMRFofj4cDcwU23bMZuN8xoScCNSiBRfEYNa3uL-sNSbfWSYQXDOQjFMC3F7rT86K1IWwDG6HwORIHX2TIEqV7O21SR-pZjX0L8UGFL/s1600/name+is+the+thing+ebook.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="648" data-original-width="432" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8BIARDiKyywUoU9hQdywYJtXaTVovJ5JWcqSc2DMRFofj4cDcwU23bMZuN8xoScCNSiBRfEYNa3uL-sNSbfWSYQXDOQjFMC3F7rT86K1IWwDG6HwORIHX2TIEqV7O21SR-pZjX0L8UGFL/s320/name+is+the+thing+ebook.jpg" width="213" /></a>I have also recently begun work on my first endeavor to write in the horror genre. The working-title is <i>The Name is the Thing</i>. It comes from the following quote from <i>The Rule of Names</i> by Ursula K. le Guin:<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>"Because the name is the thing," he said in his
shy, soft, husky voice, "and the truename is the true thing. To speak the
name is to control the thing."</i><o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<br />
I don't want to spoil too much, but I'll say this, it's a sort of neo-zombie story in the tradition of <i>Pontypool </i>and<i> Ravenous (Les Affamés</i>,) but on a larger scale. Here is the cover idea I'm working with.<br />
<br />
If you're a fan of the genre, and want to be a beta reader when it's ready, keep watching these posts. I'll be sending out the call when the time is right.<br />
<br />
In the meantime, I've entered another mystery/crime story promo. All of the books in the promo are free, and they can be yours for the price of an email address. You can find all of the available titles <a href="https://storyoriginapp.com/to/3rWoAOP" target="_blank">at this link</a>. Enjoy.<br />

Who doesn't love a good lawyer joke? The law is not usually considered a funny thing, but the more serious a thing is, the more farcical it becomes; and what's more serious than jurisprudence? From <i>The Bon Fire of the Vanities</i>, to <i>My Cousin Vinny</i>, the humor in the law and its absurdities is always just under the surface.</blockquote>
All year long, I have been telling you about promos I have been running for my site, DoubleCross Lit. The promos have each featured two genres with books entered in the promo representing either of the featured genres or both. This month's promo will be the site's swan song. The Wit & Wisdom promo features humor and legal stories, and you can find it now through Sunday night at <a href="https://doublecrosslit.weebly.com/promo.html">doublecrosslit.com/promo</a>.<br />

As you know, I'm currently re-podcasting the stories that appear in my short story collection, <i>8 Tales of Noir</i>. I slapped together a cover image for the podcast of the remastered stories that had previously appeared episodically over several seasons of the podcast. But we're getting closer to the day when I will release the audiobook version, so I sat down and designed a more slick cover.</div>
</div>
<br />
The original, which I'm using<a href="http://thrillsandmystery.weebly.com/podcast"> on the podcast</a>, featured my daughter using a photo I had shot of her for her senior high school portrait. This one features a professional model photographed by Nayara Dinato from Pexels, a royalty-free stock photo site. Hopefully in a few weeks I'll have a release date to announce, but for now, here's the final cover for the audiobook.<br />
<br />
I was going for a sort of postmodern pulp cover feel. I hope you like it.J.

We all know Stephen King is the master of modern horror, but isn't "<i>Under the Dome</i>" a science fiction novel? Isn't "<i>11/22/63</i>" about time travel? If "<i>War of the Worlds</i>" isn't a horror story, then neither is "<i>A Quiet Place</i>." Science and scientific exploration are all about the unknown, and what's scarier than not knowing what's going to happen next?</blockquote>
It's October, and what better mix for the haunting season than Sci-fi and Horror? The sale this month runs Friday October 18 through Sunday, October 20.

Although this season has a different purpose. </span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In the past, I've used the podcast to promote myself and other authors by producing audiobook quality podcasts of short stories. Then last season I changed things up and produced PG Wodehouse's classic, <i>The Inimitable Jeeves,</i> in episodic form. After the season concluded, I released the entire collection of episodes as an audiobook through Findaway Voices. This season, I'm doing a little of each. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I'm re-releasing remastered versions of the original stories I previously produced for the podcast which I authored, and later published in my collection <i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0173UA1VW">8 Tales of Noir</a></i>. Each of those stories originally aired with royalty free music courtesy of Incompetech.com. However, I have decided that I am going to produce an audio-book version, and I wish to change out that music for original music by my late friend, Mark J. Miller.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Mark was a writer, a musician, a singer, and a teacher. He died last year after a brief illness which was never properly diagnosed, but which quickly spread to his blood causing sepsis. His loss is still jarring. So in Mark's honor, I got permission from his family to use music he recorded for his one-man project which he called Dreamcrush. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to a local charity he was involved with called Team Mojo.</span></div>

It’s the height of the Jazz Age, and the roaring twenties are in full-roar in and around London and the English countryside. Bingo Little, the twins, Steggles, and Aunt Agatha are among the banes of young Bertie Wooster’s casual existence; but fortunately, Bertie has his gentleman’s gentleman, his valet, the forever-ready Jeeves to come to his rescue. This novel – or more accurately this narrative collection of brief interludes – is the perfect introduction to the writings of P.G. Wodehouse, the comedic voice of a generation and time nearly a century hence, but as familiar and ever-present as Orphan Annie and Charlie Chaplain.</div>

In 1953, Alfred Bester's <i>The Demolished Man</i> won the first Hugo award in science fiction, but at it's heart it was a howcatchem mystery novel. Dan Brown's recent <i>Inferno</i> is a detective story about a fictional genetically modified weapon at its heart. This promo explores science and all its mysteries, as well as the science of solving mysteries.</blockquote>

This weekend, May 17 through May 19, Double-Cross lit will be featuring ebooks that fall on the spectrum for the genres of mystery and science fiction. So whether your tastes run toward gumshoes or procedurals or time travel or alien invasions or something in the middle, you'll find something to love in this promo.

It's time for another Double-Cross Lit promo. This one features humor and thriller stories.</div>

Mirth and Mischief</div>
Laughter is the release of tension. Just ask Carl Hiassen or Janet Evanovich; and within the thriller genre, it can be subtle like the movie Ocean's Eleven to broad like Rush Hour. Whichever of these genres you come looking for, you'll find it in this promo.</blockquote>
This weekend, April 26 - 28, ebooks from more than a dozen indie authors will be discounted to 99¢/99p and I have two books in the promo you can check out. You can find the sale at <a href="http://promo.doublecrosslit.com/">promo.doublecrosslit.com</a> this weekend.<br />
