Mackarb
Now available
Maybe camping by the woods at night was the wrong thing to do after what happened in the woods in the small town of Mackarb. The gruesome murders made Mackarb a very macabre place to be.
Jackolantern

How I Write Books Quickly
I’m currently working on my next book which will be out next month in time for Halloween.
I’ve written dozens of books (I really should count how many) and that doesn’t include all the free ebooks I’ve written over the years, plus the books I’ve previously written that are no longer on the market.

The Simple Little Tip To Writing More and Writing Better
If you want to earn money from writing, you need to write fast because you’re paid for what you do. You’ll earn the same amount of money for an article regardless of whether it took you 2 hours or 2 days to write it. So the faster you write, the more money you’ll earn.
Never make the mistake of thinking that writing fast means writing badly. In fact the opposite is true. The faster you write, the better you’ll write.

National Novel Writing Month is due to commence in November, and this week I heard about the controversy with AI and NaNoWriMo.
