The Un-Life of William Moore Cover Reveal

After over a year since I started this journey, The Un-Life of William Moore will soon be available to put on your bookshelf. I already had an e-book cover, but to be able to hold this book in your hands I went back and got a spine and back added to it. A week of waiting was well worth it! Here is the official book cover for The Un-Life of William Moore:


I am so ecstatic about this cover. Thank you, again, Zakaria Nada, for working with me on making this book come to life. I didn't have a single complaint on the background of the back cover and am still in awe of how amazing it looks. If you need a book cover done, I highly recommend Zak and her watercolor style book covers. She has great turn around time and great taste. She also designed the bookmark (coming soon) that will come with this book when you buy it at one of my book signings.

-Book Signing Times and Locations-

Speaking of signings, I already have three book signings on the schedule and a potential fourth in the works. After this post goes live there will be a "Book Signings" link near the "Buy a Book" link on the main menu where you can find out where I'll be in person to sell books. You can ask me questions and get a custom message on your signed book if you wish, not to mention a free matching bookmark! Buying the book in person will be two or three bucks cheaper than buying it online so you'll not want to miss the opportunity to come to one of my book signings!

-Online Pricing and Availability-

And speaking of price, it's not 100% official yet, but it's looking like The Un-Life of William Moore paperback will be selling for $12.99 on Amazon. I haven't decided on the e-book yet, but it will likely be under $5.

"But what if you want a hardback?" I hear you asking. Well, it's in the works. I'm hoping to have a hardback version released sometime this fall. Right now I'm just really trying to push to get The Un-Life ready in some physical capacity by June, and for the moment that means only a paperback. It won't hurt my feels at all if you wait to buy the book when it comes out in hardcover. It will happen soon!

Thank you so much for sticking with me during the highs and lows of this journey. I hope you enjoy The Un-Life as much as I enjoyed making it. The Un-Life is expected to release June 14th, 2019.

Fun Facts About The Un-Life (Spoilers)

Image
It's been a while! Hi! I've been busy with leading CampNaNoWriMo workshops and lots of book signings . But here I am today, ready to tell you a little more about my novel, The Un-Life of William Moore. I highly suggest reading the novel before reading these "fun facts," as there are spoilers ahead. You can purchase the book at most all places you buy books, including Amazon , Barnes & Noble , and your local book store. -Fun Facts About The Un-Life of William Moore - 1)   The novel is approximately 63k words.   When I first “finished” the story, it only had 35k. Being so short and condensed, the story's pace was way too fast.   The additional word count helped to slow things down, develop characters, and make it a more standard sized novel.   2)  My first working title was “Billy the Vampire.” This title made it too obvious what the story was about, even though it conveyed the corny tone I wanted at the time.   Later, I wanted to make it more subtle. ...

A Closer, Spoiler-Free Look at Blood Knights

-The Story, The Legend, The Blood Knight - I’m super duper excited by this, guys. The Blood Knights series, as I have said multiple times, is the most vivid world I’ve ever created. It’s so alive that I don’t quite feel like I’m in control of it. More than once a character has veered off on their own chosen path against what I had originally intended. Villains grew up to be heroes, heroes turned out to be villains. New characters I didn’t have in the original concept just popped out of nowhere demanding to be seen. It’s been a wild ride to see all the stories unfold. The Blood Knight is the first in the intended trilogy. It centers on Archer Mathews, a vampire hunter that makes a grave mistake and is turned into the thing he hates most. The thing is, he should have died instead. Hunters are almost a breed of supernatural beings of their own, with fast reflexes and heightened senses tuned into finding evil, and something in their blood won’t let them be corrupted into monsters. The cl...
