Interviewed by the News-Sun

It’s been over a week, but I was interviewed by The News-Sun, a Noble County newspaper located in Kendallville, Indiana, and that interview was published in their weekend edition last week. You can read the piece online here (though you’ll have to log into the paper’s website to read it). The reporter, Bob Braley, I think has written the best interview I’ve had yet.

‘Pandora’s Box’ reiewed on Natasha’s Shelf

My friend Natasha had the honor of being the first to review my first novel, Pandora’s Box. She posted her review on her website, Natasha’s Shelf, where she reviews many books, movies, and TV shows. I was very happy withy what she said. You can read it here. Be sure to subsribe to her site as she has many great insights in her reviews (and I don’t just say that because she’s my friend).

Post & Mail interviews me

The Post & Mail, the local newspaper based in Columbia City, Indiana, published an interview with yours truly in today’s edition. It centered mostly around the publication of Pandora’s Box and what influenced and inspired me to write it. It was written by Becky Hand, their community editor. I haven’t read the article yet, but I really enjoyed talking with her. If you’re in the area, check it out!

Yours truly featured in today’s edition of Times-Union

I was interviewed by the Times-Union, a newspaper based in Warsaw, Indiana, about publishing my first novel, Pandora’s Box, and today I was the front page story in their leisure section. If you live in the area, check it out. You can also the article on the newspaper’s online edition here.

Many thanks to the Times-Union and David Slone, who interviewed me and wrote this piece.

Audio version of ‘Pandora’s Box’ prologue posted!

Remember that podcast I was on this week? Well, the hosts of the podcast, my amazing friends Nick Hayden and Tim Deal, surprised me today by posting a recording of Nick’s wife, Natasha (who, by the way, was the winner of the tagline contest I had a few months back), reading the prologue of Pandora’s Box!

In my excitement, I posted this comment on their website:

“Oh. My. Gosh! I can’t begin to tell you how excited this makes me! Heck, my hands are trembling with excitement as I type this. This is an absolutely wonderful surprise. In fact, it reminds me of an idea I had for an audiobook version of my novel. It would require two readers, one as the narrator (I had imagined I would read for that), and one as [Pvt. Brewer’s] journal, which would be read by a woman.

“I had actually thought about recording a recitation of the prologue myself, but you’ve beaten me to it, and I thank you.”

What makes it perfect is that Natasha is a redhead, just like Pvt. Brewer.

So what are you waiting for? Go listen to this great reading!
