Hey Everyone,<\/p>\n

We took a bit of a break here at Geek Goes Rogue. Essentially, we\u2019re trying to re-imagine the blog a bit. Next week will be the beginning of our (Semi) new direction.<\/p>\n

Now, many have been asking about my writing and all the different stuff I\u2019m writing at this point. Here is the up to date skinny:<\/p>\n

Novels:<\/p>\n

3 Gates of the Dead<\/strong> is going to be published October 15, 2013<\/a>. It is not just an e-book, but a regular book as well. You can get the run down at my website.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Revolution of the Wolf<\/strong>: This is the YA novel I wrote last year. My agent and publisher are discussing the rights as we speak. I\u2019m also going through and making some final changes to the book. If it all falls right, you should be seeing this book next May or so. What\u2019s it about? Think of a Superhero story set in a post Second Civil War America. That\u2019s all I\u2019m saying at this point. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Project Totem (not the real title):<\/strong> This is my Middle Grade Novel that I just completed (pending edits). Same story as Revolution of the Wolf, and you might even see this book next summer as well. As for this story, think of a Narnia\/A Wrinkle in Time mixed with a Pacific Northwest flavor. Also, there are some other very cool \u201cside\u201d projects with this.<\/p>\n

Sequel to 3 Gates of the Dead titled \u201cThe Dark Bride\u201d:<\/strong> This book is actually written, but I need to go back to make some changes. All of the main characters from 3 Gates will be back in a darker, scarier, and earth shattering book. Writing this book was really hard.<\/p>\n

So, if you\u2019re keeping track, I have an Adult Paranormal Series, a YA series, and a Middle Grade Series. Hat trick!!<\/p>\n

Other Writing
\nAs of now, I\u2019m a contributing writer at The High Calling, and here at Patheos. I\u2019ve just recently started writing for Dread Central.<\/p>\n

The Dread Centra<\/a>l stuff is fun, because I get to let my inner sarcasm fly. My feature column is called, \u201cThe Seen and The Unseen\u201d where I give my own snarky take on all the paranormal news.<\/p>\n

Plus, there is a possible serial novel to come\u2026.stay tuned for that\u2026..<\/p>\n

So, that\u2019s it so far. Thanks for all of you who\u2019ve taken the time to tell me how much you love the writing. Really, the best is yet to come.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
