Here is the kindle version. http://www.amazon.com/Deadmans-Tome-June-2011-ebook/dp/B00538M1LK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&m=AG56TWVU5XWC2&s=digital-text&qid=1306711217&sr=1-2
The story is not exactly horror, because I do have the ability to write outside my comfort zone. However, it's one of my favorites about a devoted Christian who sacrifices his faith for crime and sex. Enjoy!

SciFi
So I'm trying my hand at science-fiction more. I have written one other scifi story called "America the Beautiful" about what a society will look like if we continue to advocate and support ridiculously high beauty standards. The story was difficult to write. There are some points I feel I hit well, and some kinks in the plot I still need to iron out. Science fiction doesn't come as naturally to me as horror does, but I find the ones that don't focus on space, aliens, and technology to be far more original and imaginitive. Don't get me wrong, I like space, aliens, and technology, but that vision of the future has been done. What if we never reach space? What if aliens never make contact? Then what will our future look lik?
Currently I am working on "The Colony" about a world without bees, where humans have taken on bee behavior and women are the workers, while male drones exist only for procreation. I think I am proud of how it's turning out, but unlike horror, I am much more insecure about my ability to write a good, gripping scifi. We shall see if I can sell it. So far "America the Beautiful" has not been successful with the magazines. Perhaps it is not cliche enough?

First Publication
I am holding my book for the first time ever. About as close to holding my first child as I'll probably ever get. I am proud.
