My New Book is due in July of 2008 LOOK!

“Whatever grows, must decompose” — Cletus Jehoshaphat Diggs

When Cletus J. Diggs gets a visit from his buddy Jasper and learns about the dead man sticking boot-first out of the fishing hole, he has no idea what it will lead to. web_ready_cletus_cover.jpg

How could he? Old Mill is famous for a lot of things, good fishing, barbecue, over-sized satellite dishes and disappearing beer; it is not known for genetic research, ancient rituals, or alien abduction.

From the moment Cletus and Sheriff Bob drag the corpse from the fishing hole to the final moments of terror, the action is non-stop, tense, and filled with surprises.

Between the Reverend Dozier and his church, the swamp witch, the albino twins, and the local lodge’s well-hidden secrets, the strange events in Old Mill, NC are pretty much out of control. Only Cletus, ordained minister, common law attorney, journalist, private investigator and jack of all trades can draw together the people and resources necessary to set things right. The question is, can he do it before it’s too late?

Old Mill, NC, by the way, is a fictional town that would (in theory) sit between Hertford, and Winfall, if there wasn't a river in the way...

Author Interviews, Elizabeth Bear, Thomas Sullivan, More

I've been busy over at MACABRE INK with posts, interviews, book reviews, and more. I have several new books due this year, one of particular local interest. That would be...

"The Not Quite Right Reverend Cletus J. Diggs & The Currently Accepted Habits of Nature," who lives in the fictional town of Old Mill, NC (I figure it should be near Winfall and Hertford). Cletus runs afoul of some folks far back in the swamp, and it's up to him, Sheriff Bob, Jasper, and a rag-tag band of others to save the day. There are aliens; there is genetic tampering, there are albino twins and a lot more.

I'll keep you posted as more information becomes available. Also due out this year are my novel MAELSTROM - and my short story collectoin "Ennui & Other States of Madness," both of which should hit by summer. As always, you can find my work down at Carolina Moon Books

I'll even sign them for you...
