I’m excited about the way my neo-pulp steampunk noir story is getting some buzz.<\/p>\n

The novella “Where the Devil Resides” came out in\u00a0Alembical 4<\/em> right before the World SF Convention. Woot! It is available in print and hardcover right now, with e-book coming soon.<\/p>\n

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

In a post-Civil War steampunk Florida, a minister’s teenage daughter is abducted by a band of vicious swamp rats and taken into the Everglades. To save his daughter from a fate worse than death, he must enlist the aid of an escaped slave woman, a mysterious Santeria priestess known as the Black Rose.<\/p>\n

This is exciting by itself, but wait! There’s more!<\/p>\n

You may recall that the screenplay adaptation of\u00a0Where the Devil Resides\u00a0<\/em>won Best Horror\/Fantasy Screenplay at the Famous Monsters Silver Scream Fest back in February.<\/p>\n

I’m delighted to announce that the screenplay is a finalist in the Shriekfest Horror Film Festival. I’ll be going to Los Angeles for the festival (Oct. 4-7)\"\" with my fingers crossed so hard they might become a singularity. I’ll be watching some cool new horror films and meeting other filmmakers. I’m so stoked.<\/p>\n

Onward!<\/p>\n\n\n
