FREE! Today through Sunday, my short horror novella, Confinement, is free on Amazon. The e-book version that is. It's only about 70 pages long. Download it, read it, and please review it. If I can get this sample of my work to hit the #1 spot (or anywhere close to that) it will help me out tremendously. Thanks guys!

I just published my first horror novella. You can pick up this short horror story and read it in one evening. It's kind of like watching a movie. So, if you're not in the mood for a serious tome, but want to be entertained and creeped out for an evening, click on the following link and buy my e-book, Confinement, for only $.99.

I'm excited to announce that, in addition to rotating through Mockingjay, City of Ashes, and Divergent (which I read at night to my daughters, an excellent way to spend time with them), I'm finally reading a book for myself...again. I think the last book I read for pure enjoyment was Dance with Dragons by George R.R. Martin.

I spent Monday night cleaning out my Kindle as it was just too overwhelming. My Kindle was kind of like Netflix, where it's so hard to decide which book to open when there are so many available.

So, I searched online for a list of the best fantasy authors out right now and found most of the books I now have on my "planning to read" list.

Last night I tried to start The Black Company by Glen Cook and I just couldn't get into it. I kept having to reread the same page twice. I hate having to work really hard to understand what I'm reading. So I've switched to The Way of Shadows by Brent Weeks and so far I'm pleasantly surprised. It's an easy read. Hopefully I'll make it all the way through this one.

Hey guys, I’ve finally published the 2nd book in my dark fantasy (what some have called extremely edgy Christian fiction) series, Mirror Images Book 2: Sons of Man.

Gabe and Lisa have finally made a peaceful life for themselves on the dark side of the mirror, high up in the mountains, where they’ve settled with a group of friends in search of the same serenity. With a new baby on the way, a storm brews; evil forces believe there’s a great power in controlling the first child born on the dark side, and they’ll stop at nothing to get their hands on it. This love story laced with mirrors, maniacs, and monsters continues as war is waged between good and evil with the survival of both worlds hanging in the balance.

***BE ADVISED. THIS BOOK CONTAINS FOUL LANGUAGE, STRONG VIOLENCE, AND SOME SEXUAL CONTENT. DON'T SAY I DIDN'T TELL YOU SO***

Book 2 is priced at US$3.99. I’m keeping Book 1: The Darkness of Man at only $.99 so people can easily get started on the series.

As you all know, reviews are so appreciated. Thanks for everyone’s support.

It's Sunday afternoon and time to take a break from writing. My kids are begging me to watch a movie with them. I just wanted to let everyone know that the 2nd book is so close to being finished (the first draft anyway). Right now I'm on page 378 (88,603 words). Lisanne, get ready!!! And Kody, if you see this, I hope you're working on the cover already. Love you all!!!

Lisanne is my editor, and my brother, Kody, is the cover artist. I love my team and can't wait to launch the second installment in the Mirror Images series. Thanks to everyone who has read my book and wrote a review. I really love and appreciate you guys.

I'm so excited to finally have my own website. I tried one of the blogspot things and I just never felt inspired to add stuff to it. This new one I've been working really hard on.

It's going to feature a writer from the dark side of the mirror named Jaundice Jones. He's going to fill us in on all the crazy stuff happening on his side. Check it out at www.cmichaelpowers.com
