Dark Night of the Soul Blog Tour August 5-30

Gearing up for my blog tour next week. Can't wait to see all the awesome places I'll be stopping by. I have a totally awesome giveaway that will be going along with it too. I hope you will be following me!

In preparation, I'll be doing a few book reviews this week for the books on the giveaway. There are some great ones. I can't wait to share!

I am Awesome.....

Awesome Indies Approved!!!!!

That was my big secret!

I had to wait until i's were dotted and stuff.

Go check out this website:

www.aweseomeindies.net

You can also just click the awesome seal to the right.

They review books and give them a seal of approval. Basically, books listed on this website are some of the best written, indie published books out there and are on par with traditionally published books.

Dark Night of the Soul has past the test and hopefully soon I will receive their gold medallion. I'm working on it!

I know it's not ground shattering news, but it was pretty exciting for me.

I Have a Secret.....

and I can't tell you!!!

I mean I could tell  you, but it will so much more fun when it's finalized.

So until then, and I don't know when that is, just know that it's pretty cool and has to do with Dark Night of the Soul.

World War Z Movie Review

Yes...yes....and YES!!!  Go see it. Very simple plot, not much on character development, but it makes up for it with sheer intensity!!! There is no lead up to the action. Probably the first 5 minutes you will be able to relax, then you'll be on the edge of your seat for the rest of the film. It's so engaging,  I found myself with my finger to my lips saying "Shhhh" in the commercial airline scene. When I looked around to see if anyone else saw me, everyone else I could see also had their finger to their lips saying "shhh". Awesome, engaging movie without resorting to shock value language, sex, or gore. As a matter of fact, I can't recall seeing any blood at all though there was shooting and maiming. I would compare it to "Signs" in the fact that's it's more about what you don't see that makes it so intense.

Wouldn't suggest it for really little ones because the Zombies would give nightmares for sure. But there is no language, no sexual content, and no gore. Just the good guys trying to save the world. Loved it and I'm hard to impress.

I Need a Favor!

I'm trying to get a flash fiction piece I published, Sean's Revenge, to be permanently free on Amazon. In order for this to happen, many people have to report that it's free on Barnes and Noble. If you could, please go to this link:

http://www.amazon.com/Seans-Revenge-ebook/dp/B00E133AMM

Scroll down a little and look just above the "Customer Review" section. You should see a link that says "tell us about a lower price". Click that and a box should pop up. Select "online". Place this link in the first box:

http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/seans-revenge-em-havens/1116057844?ean=2940044611115

Fill out the rest with today's date, and 0.00's.

That's it!

Thank you for your help.
