Hi Friends,

I got caught yesterday in Amazon's "glitch" that delayed hundreds of books. But it's all okay now! DREAMING DEEP, a novelette the publisher calls "modern Lovecraftian horror" is now live on Amazon. The story celebrates the hardworking men and women at the Port of Long Beach, California. It's a little bit like JAWS on a tugboat... with privacy paranoia thrown in.

Take a look inside... http://www.amazon.com/Dreaming-Deep--...

Best regards,

It was a pretty good year for creative output. I don't judge myself by quantity because it's a lot easier to achieve than quality. The battle of time versus effort never ends. But hey, I survived!

DREAMING DEEP, a Lovecraftian thriller for Uncanny Books, was finished New Year's Eve and submitted to publisher Andrew Byers just a few days later. This novelette has an unusual ending and takes a big risk--but that's why Anonymous-9 writes in the first place. Andrew has wisely provided detailed notes and we're working together to make this piece the best it can be.

Here are milestones of 2014. Readers are my inspiration. Thanks for voting, reviewing, and reading.

Les Edgerton says, "Anonymous-9’s CRASHING THROUGH MIRRORS is one wild, funky adrenaline rush—you don’t read it; you inhale it, like Peruvian marching powder on a mirror in the bathroom at the Viper Club, trying to get it all sucked up before the gendarmes bust down the door. This is one mighty talent. My heart’s still pounding."

—Les Edgerton, author of THE RAPIST, THE BITCH, and THE GENUINE, IMITATION, PLASTIC KIDNAPPING


"A novelette that locks you in the moment and smacks you through each page. Great depiction of Los Angeles, good tension in the subplots. I'd love to see this as a full novel. Recommended.
—Liam Sweeny, author of Welcome Back, Jack!
