I finished the rewrites of my Muddy River short read. It ended up being a little over 15,000 words, so an Amazon 90-minute read. On top of that, I designed a cover I like for it. This story did exactly what I wanted it to do. It put my mind in a whole different mode than writing mysteries. I think I’ve found something that works for me. There’s no guarantee that Muddy River will ever be a success, but it lets me write with a lot more freedom than mysteries do. So I’m going to keep doing it between each mystery novel I finish. I should be ready to put it up soon, so here goes:
Muddy River’s charming bartender, Derek–a powerful vampire–left New York centuries ago to escape his succubus lover, Allure. He moved to Muddy River and eventually mated with Prim Tallow, a Fae. But Allure’s finally found him, knows where he lives. And she wants him back.
You are so versatile when it comes to writing stories. Your plots keep me guessing. So creative…. Congrats!

I have to take breaks, too. That’s where my stand-alone stories come into play. I wish some of them would get a bit more attention, but what can you do. The Hat stories kind of fill that gap, too. They’re short and fun.

Thanks, Mae. I’ve been horrible about advertising and promo lately, and my numbers show it. I have to get in gear. Is there something you’d like me to write to visit your blog? I’d be happy to.

I’ve been horrible with promo lately too. I did almost zilch for McDoogal.
I love the fact that there are so many varied supernatural beings in Muddy River, even the combinations of hybrids. Is there anything you could do with that in reference to a post? I’d be open to anything, but I’m always enthralled by the way all those people interact.
BTW, I just posted my review to Amazon, GR, and BB. Reading Bounty Hunted went too quick, LOL!
