HELLz BELLz To Ring This Summer
My out-of-print and hard-to-find 2005 novel HELLz BELLz will be published this summer as an eBook. Like BAD JUJU before it, BELLz died when HellBound Books suffered a series of fatal misfortunes.
Of all my books, HELLz BELLz has the best rating at GoodReads.Soon it will have a new format and brand new cover.
I'll make details available in coming weeks. For now all I can say is that HELL BELLz is coming back from the dead to ring in fast and furious horrors all over again.
BELLz is the perfect beach book--if you can find a beach in hell.

BAD JUJU FOR E-READERS
Bad Juju
My first solo novel returns as an eBook. Published originally by Walt Hicks of HellBound Books in 2003, the novel never had much of a readership before some very baad juju and a couple of hurricanes sank the small-press publisher and doomed any chance of a second print run of Juju.
But now, thanks to the upstart e-book publisher Acid Grave Press, BAD JUJU lives again and nobody but collectors of out-of-print editions will have to pay $50 or $80 to own this book.
BAD JUJU was generally very well received by readers and critics. As my Goodreads friend Kelly Tomblin said in her review for Horror-Web: "Gripping you from the moment you open the book, the pace is swift and constant. Building up to an explosive ending, the suspense will wreak havoc on even the most sedated reader. Hot and thick, the atmosphere reeks of earth, blood, and decay. The astringent air carries with it a sense of malevolence, and resentment. No matter where you look, no matter how shallow you breathe, this town will touch you." {You can see why Kelly is one of my favorite reviewers. I read all her reviews.]
So BAD JUJU lives again. I invite you to let it haunt your e-reader and then let us know how it hit you.
For $3.99 BAD JUJU is very good juju.
