Week Four Events: October 29th:

And Here We Go! The final new release raffle has arrived. What an awesome month it has been, we hit #1 on the Amazon best seller list for new releases in the classic science fiction category and we continue to gather some incredible reviews. I couldn't be happier with the success and feedback the book has been recieving. Incredible really and I'm grateful to all the readers who are loving those alien vampires. 

For the final giveaway I'm raffling off a hardocver of John Connolly's horror thriller, The Woman in the Woods, a signed paperback of The Rose Vol. 1, a Rose Vol. 1 duffle bag and a $25 Amazon or Barnes and Noble Gift Card. Sorry to say the raffles are for US Residents Only due to the cost of international shipping.

I first discovered John Connolly's Charlie Parker series after a friend recommended The Woman in the Woods. I respect and appreciate John Connolly's prose and prolific storytelling. The Charlie Parker series is a set of stand alone stories that are sure to satisfy any supernatural and horror itch a reader may have. Connolly has since become one of my favorite modern authors and his multiple pov's and thrilling pace in his novels were an inspiration while writing The Rose. 

With all that being said, be sure to check back in daily to enter the rafles and book fairs that will be ongoing over the next few weeks. I'll also update the page with new book fairs and giveaway I'm currently taking part in throughout the holidays, so be sure to bookmark the page or sign up for my newsletter to receive all the fun, giveaways, and updates in real time. This weeks book fairs as well as all of this months raffles, giveaways, and book fairs, are all below the raffle so keep on scrolling.

As always, be bold, be brilliant, and be extraordinary,

Week Three Events: October 22nd

Hello Hello, Welcome Back to Week Three of The Rose Vol. 1 Release Party. The Rose Vol 1 continues to garner great buzz and feedback from reviewers. It's really refereshing to see two years of blood, sweat, and tears come to frution and received such a great positive feedback. For me personally this has been a truly exciting time releasing The Rose and gearing up to pen what I hope will be a stellar series for readers across the globe. I'm grateful to be writing and editing and I'm grateful you are all taking the journey with me. 

For this weeks Raffle, I'm giving away a few prizes including, a hardcover of Blake Crouch's stellar science fiction novel Dark Matter. Blake's novel was an inspiration to me while writing The Rose. His writing style, character development, and relentless plot twists were something special to discover in today's unfortunate cookie cutter publishing industy. I enjoy books that are out of the norm with out of the box storytelling, and intelligent plot lines. Truly a remarkable novel. I've also included as a part of the giveaway a Signed paperback copy of The Rose Vol. 1, a Rose Vol. 1 Coffee Mug, and a $25 Amazon or Banres and Noble Gift Card. Entrants must be US only residents due to the cost of international shipping.

Week Two Events: October 15th

Welcome back to this weeks New Release Month of Events, Raffles, and Prizes. The Rose made the Amazon best seller list in the Classic Science Fiction category. This is awesome and I couldn't be happier with the feedback I've been receiving from readers. Seems like those alien vampires are quickly becoming reader favorites, which is totally awesome IMO. 

So, a few things about this weeks events and raffles and a couple FYI's. I will update this page weekly with a new raffle, current events and happenings across social media (podcasts, readings, interviews, etc), and updated book fairs and giveaways, so keep coming back and enjoy the new release party. For this week's events we have a Story Time reading video recorded by the prolific Fantasy and Sci-Fi author Timothy Bateson, a Q&A recorded from the author takeover on the Fantasy & Sci-Fi Focus Facebook Group, and an audio podcast interview from the Book and Authors Fantasy and Scifi Podcast. This weeks raffle includes the following prizes: a Hardcover of Richard Matheson's awesome vampire dystopian novel, I am Legend, a paperback copy of The Rose Vol. 1, and a Rose duffle bag (because there's nothing better than swag). In order to enter all you have to do is go to either my Twitter or Facebook account and retweet or share a post. Easy peasy that is. And then enter your twitter handle or facebook name in the raffle so I can verify participation.

Prizes Include:
 


 



So Why Richard Matheson's I Am Legend? Well, The Rose Vol. 1 is a dystopian vampire novel and I Am Legend is one of those books that provided inspiration behind writing The Rose. I Am Legend is also one of my favorite dystopian novels, so why not include it as a prize? Seems absolutely relevant to the task. 

Now on to the events. We've got a reading from author Timothy Bateson. I love his voice, that english accent fits perfectly when he's describing Sandy and Ben as they discover they've been abducted and subjected to some really awful genetic experimentation. Second video is a Q&A I took part in on the Fantasy and SciFi Focus Facebook Group on October 7th, and the third is an interview from the Books and Authors Fantasy and Scifi Podcast (unfortuantely i coulnd't include it here so if you'd like to listen click the link to open in a new tab. I've also incluced two new book fairs below the events. 

With all that being said, have an awesome week and don't forget to pick up your copy of The Rose Vol. 1 A Dystopian Science Fiction Thriller. It's like The Matrix and Ancient Aliens Spawned and Alien Vampire!

Week One Events: October 7th

AND HERE WE GO! The Rose Vol. 1 releases today, October 7th 2020. This has been one hell of a year for all of us. 2020 continues to test our resolve, patience, acceptance, and rage. But what better way to esape than through a book? We are all readers here, myself included, and we've all had those moments when we need to get away from everyday life and reading is one way we cope with adversity. The Rose was written to be escapsit literature, a story to transport us to a new world, and a new time, where our everyday worries seem a little less worrisome, because we can escape. We can take up arms against a sea of troubles and leave the world for a while, even if its just for a brief period, diving into a story that completely disolves the 3rd dimensional world around us into a story of action and adventure, mythology and lore, thrills, chills, twists and turns, alien vampires, martial arts, and mysterious rebellion. I wrote The Rose as an escape, a place I could hang my hat for a while and forget. To cheer for heroes and sit in awe over villains so wretched they leap off the page. So it is to you all, dear readers that I present to you The Rose Vol. 1. Get Ready To Bleed!

I've set up this page to include story time readings from The Rose, Podcasts and Interviews, Updated Book Trailers (because I love trailers), Current Book Fairs and Giveaways, and weekly Raffles. Every Wednesday during the month of October I'll be updating this page to include a new raffle. Prizes for each raffle will include some swag, a free copy of The Rose (could be an ebook, paperback, or hardcover), and a book that helped to inspire The Rose. So be sure to check in every Wednesday for updated information or join my mailing list (look to your left) and you'll be a part of the PD team and receive updated information in real time. 

So let's get this party started. I've got a raffle for you. That's right I'm giving away a Hardcover of Stephen King's awesome vampire novel, Salem's Lot, A Paperback copy of The Rose Vol. 1, a Rose Vol. 1 coffee mug, and a $25 Amazon or Barnes and Noble Gift Card. In order to enter you must share either a facebook post or retweet a tweet. Simple really, click on one of the links below to share the post or retweet the tweet and when you enter the raffle include your Facebook name or Twitter Handle so I can verify that you've shared or retweeted. Kind of easy if you think about it.

Now you've made it all the way down here. That's pretty cool IMO and I do believe you should be rewarded for doing so. How about a FREE book courtesy of yours truly. Since Halloween is upon us, and in the spirit of my favorite holiday, I'd like to extend to you my dark fiction novel, Twisted Tales of Deceit: The First Book in the Beyond the Chamber Door series.
 


Twisted Tales of Deceit is a collection of two short stories (The Calculated Desolation of Hope, & Somnium), and the novelette, Knickerbocker, a reimagining of Washington Irving's The Legend of Sleepy Hollow with a modern day twist: all the characters are recovering addicts employed as teachers at the prestigious Sleepy Hollow Private School. Follow along with Isaac Crane as he discovers the Headless Horseman is real...and he wants Crane's head on his mantle. eBook is available as a mobi or ePub file through Bookfunnel, check it out HERE!

And I'm spent for the day. And it is a great day when the book you've been working on for over two years finally sees the light of day. Enjoy those alien vampires and don't forget to leave a review and let me know your thoughts, I always enjoy engaging with readers. Here's a trailer my son put together, not bad at all. Thank you Dominick.
