Hello, and welcome to my little corner of the world.
It is with great excitement that I start this blog to spread the word about Dawn's End, my debut full-length novel, which will be published this month by iUniverse. This book, about a pair of vampires who descend on the small town of Glory, Texas, and wreak havoc on the lives of the locals, is a unique and thrilling novel that is a tremendous source of pride for me.
I grew up practically inhaling every scary story, be it in print or on film, that I could get my hands on, and dreaming of the day when I would make my mark on such a wonderful genre. My plan for Dawn's End was to not just make my readers lock the doors and look over their shoulders in terror for a bloodsucker ready to strike, but to give them something that's usually lacking in the world of horror fiction: characters you care about who feel like real people. Characters who feel like your neighbors and friends. Characters whose struggles and very survival you're invested in. I've written a book that I hope you'll enjoy not only for the thrills and chills, but for the exploration of the deep emotions and pain that we've all experienced at one time or another.
I'll be posting often about my progress in marketing the book and invite you to share your thoughts and feelings with me about the story. Love it, hate it, debate it. It's all good to me. As for the synopsis, read on. Thank you, and talk to you soon!
"Perched high in a tree like a vulture, Devon looks down on Glory, Texas, sparkling in the darkness. People below will soon feel the full force of this vampire’s rage.
Evil converges in Glory as three couples struggle with lives full of abuse and infidelity. Alex can’t come to grips with his girlfriend, Laura, leaving him. Jenny, a victim of domestic violence, must escape her husband, Ray. Syl and Dave’s downfall is becoming embroiled in their friends’ dramatic lives. Into this mix comes Rena, a beautiful and benevolent woman. Decades before, with a savage bite, Devon had turned her into his tormented companion. Distraught by how she must survive, Rena had fled his influence. And now Devon wants Rena to pay for betraying him and refusing to share eternal life with him.
When Alex meets Rena in the local roadhouse, a spiral of depravity begins to uncoil. Alex and Rena join forces in an attempt to kill Devon and save the lives of their friends. But Devon is bent on destroying whomever he can to get what he wants, and unfortunately for Alex, everyone he cares about is standing in the way."
