A few months ago, I announced that my horror story “Nightmare Stalker” had been accepted for publication by The Book Smugglers.

It’s been renamed to It Came Back, and today I’d like to share the awesome cover art from Tomislav Jagnjic.

It Came Back follows a young woman named Luna who returns to her childhood home, only to discover a dark secret in her family’s past and a curse that lingers on.

It will be available from The Book Smugglers, and if you want an ebook copy, you’ll also be able to buy it from:

You can also add It Came Back on Goodreads.

In the official announcement from The Book Smugglers, you can learn a little more about the story and how they selected it as part of their Gods & Monsters line.

A classic horror story, set in the 1980s, featuring an estranged daughter, a partial epistolary narrative, an otherworldly artifact, and a family secret, It Came Back hit all of the right horror tropes–even better, it manages to do all these things and still be truly scary. We couldn’t have dreamed up a more terrifying specter to kick off the monster portion of Gods and Monsters… we hope you’re as taken with Samantha Lienhard’s nightmare stalker as we are.”

Excited? You’ll be able to read It Came Back on July 25, and pre-orders for the ebook are available now!

Final Masquerade is Available Again

As you might recall, the horror anthology Final Masquerade (which includes my short story “The Artist”) became unavailable after the publisher changed hands.

Now Final Masquerade is back, in both ebook and print formats, with a new cover.

“The Artist” came out last year and is my most recent publication, but don’t forget that you can look forward to “Nightmare Stalker” this summer!

In other (non-horror, non-writing) news, I updated Monday’s blog post to include the official announcement of Tokyo RPG Factory’s new game, the unusually-titled Lost Sphear. It’s one of many games I’ll be looking forward to in 2018.

Have you read “The Artist” yet? If not, will you be picking up Final Masquerade now that it’s available again?

Final Masquerade Will Be Temporarily Unavailable

Last October, my short horror story “The Artist” was published in an anthology called Final Masquerade.

The publisher of Final Masquerade, Lycan Valley Press, has changed ownership. During this transition, all of their books, including Final Masquerade, will be temporarily unavailable.

Once the transition is complete, it will be available again. Once it is, I’ll update the links and make an announcement.

In the meantime, don’t forget to look forward to “Nightmare Stalker,” another one of my horror stories, which will be out this July as part of the Gods & Monsters line from The Book Smugglers.

And on the video game side of things, my work on Ascendants Hearts is going well, as are my other projects, such as the recently released Trials of Olympus III. Stay tuned!
