Spring 2008 Update

As summer approaches and my thoughts turn to vacation and having some outdoor fun, I am in a quandary as to which of my two finished books to publish next. Perhaps I should ask you, my readers, which book you would like to see next. So with that in mind, click the link below and give me your input. Your choices are, Chinibuck the Observer or The Wager.

Here is a little bit about each book:

Chinibuck the Observer

Henry Kellogg was a simple man who enjoyed hiking in his Shawnee Forest and working on web projects for his clients. Then one day, while out hiking the top of Limestone Gap, he found Keyawa, a Wauami Indian, and Keyawa was injured and in need of help. But the help Keyawa needed was not to be rescued from the ledge he had fallen to, as Henry had thought upon finding him there. Keyawa needed help dying, and in order to do so, he needed a successor to the Gift of the Egg. He needed to pass along the Gift, and in doing so, create a new Chinibuck. Henry just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time... The Gift of the Egg, created by the Great Father and delivered to the People by Yellow Eagle, was never intended for the use or abuse of the white man. Now, Henry Kellogg, a white man, was the bearer of the Gift; the Observer that should never have been allowed to exist. But exist he did, and now it was up to Nahni Strange Owl, his Keeper, to prevent Henry from interfering with the normal order of time and events.

The Wager

As Nick Hines arose at 5 a.m. on March 28, 2005, other than the fact that it was his thirtieth birthday, the day ahead held no promise of being anything more than ordinary. He was up, as usual, before the rest of his family, and after a quick breakfast he would head out the door and make his way down Route 47 to Montrose. It was just a typical Monday in every way, except that this Monday was to end with cake and ice cream after supper. Long before the birthday party though, Nick’s ordered life would begin a spiraling downslide into chaos. The changes in his life were about to begin, as he sat at the only traffic signal in Montrose, watching the red glow of the light, and wondering how he managed to get caught by a traffic light that never turned red. But, today it had, and as he sat awaiting the green, he looked left up High Street, and his life began changing immediately. The beginning was innocent enough, to all outward appearances, but what lay beneath the surface–was horrific. Nick Hines, for whatever reason, and totally unbeknownst to him, had become the subject of - The Wager.
