You know how, come Christmas morning, you felt there was something missing from under the tree… but you couldn’t quite put your finger on what it was? Allow me…

Paul D. Brazill and Pulp Metal Fiction bring you the long-awaited follow up to Paul’s first Drunk On The Moon anthology…. (drum roll, please!)

DOTM2

Paul’s latest offering opens with a brilliant introduction by master of the horror/pyschological thriller, Richard Godwin, who makes a stirring argument for bringing a little lycanthropy into the fray between good and evil.

DOTM 2 is packed with such heavy-hitters as Paul D Brazill, Carrie Clevenger, Chad Eagleton, Matt Hilton, Ben LeLievre, Chris Rhatigan, Ben Sobieck, JJ Toner, Vincent Zandri and…

Well, look at this… little ol’ me… in here with all these ‘big fish’! Hang on a sec…. (does little happy dance)…

Thrilled… and honoured… that’s what I was when Paul approached me about using one of my ‘Erin’ pieces in an anthology he was putting together. Of course, I said ‘yes’!

Chuffed… is what I am now… seeing my story in print along with these amazing writers… totally chuffed!

Congratulations, Paul… and everyone who has contributed their time and talent to make this anthology possible. It’s an amazing collection of stories… I’m going through my second read right now; I can’t seem to put it down!

A special thank you to Marcin Drzewiecki & Jason Michel for the amazing (you already said amazing, Veronica)… for the awesome (said that too, sweetie!)… brilliant (mmm…)…

Thank you, Marcin and Jason, for your fantastically inspired cover art! ;-)

Hi, to all my faithful followers… wow!  That doesn’t sound right!  How about, all my faithful BLOG followers?

A slight departure from my usual daily postings of images.  Fear not… I am still posting a new image every day.  I just wanted to take this opportunity to promote the e-book publication of APOSTLE RISING, the debut crime novel of a close friend and mentor, Richard Godwin.

Apostle Rising is a police procedural/psychological thriller of the first order… dark, twisted and suspenseful. Richard gives nothing away in his narrative… no red herrings… no leading one down the garden path. From the very first page, one knows this is not going to be a pretty ride. Richard’s writing has a dark, sinister feel that, for fans of crime/horror, is irresistible to put down and impossible to ignore. His rich, dark, imaginative prose draws one in much like one of those water vortices in the northern Atlantic… undeniably powerful and compelling.

Apostle Rising is how [Stephen] King would write if he did noir… the relentless, escalating horror of Richard’s deftly written prose leaves one on the edge… breathless… having serious second thoughts perhaps, about taking that evening walk unaccompanied.

Engrossing, beautifully written horror… with the technical detail of a first class police procedural, Apostle Rising is a `must-read’ for any fan of crime fiction or horror.

Master of the horror/psychological thriller, Richard Godwin’s debut crime novel, Apostle Rising is now available on Amazon for the Kindle, as well as in trade paperback.  The e-book contains some exciting extras:  an extract from Mr. Glamour, Richard’s bestselling second novel, and a series of deliciously dark Noir stories.

If you live in the United States, the price of countless sleepless nights is only $3.24 -

This final image was shot with the Nikon L810 – f5.7, 1/40 sec, ISO-80, 259mm fl.

Setting the film speed manually to its lowest setting and using a long focal length gave me very intense colours in the sky and a dramatic silhouette of the tree in the foreground.  There was no post-exposure manipulation done to this image.

Thank you for following me on this journey of discovery.

I shot this with the Samsung SGH-i727 and imported into Instagram, which , unfortunately, stripped away the image information.
