Hey folks,
Those interested in knowing about my authorship situation should be pleased to know that I am hitting the ground running when it comes to establishing my authorial credentials. I have signed a second contract with Permuted Press (http://permutedpress.com/). This one is for the Cthulhu Apocalypse series and is for six-books versus my original three-book contract for The Red Room series.
I've been somewhat sparse on the details for both of them but since things are now in writing, I'm going to explain a bit about both.
The Red Room series is an urban fantasy spy-thriller set. Our heroes are a collection of cinematic spies dealing with the world of the creepy and the crawlie. Conspiracy and lies are common place in a world where magic belongs to those who can horde it. If The Laundry series is very Smiley, I go Bond and Bourne.
Cthulhu Apocalypse is a post-apocalyptic science fiction/fantasy. After the Great Old Ones rise, the world burns. This is set a hundred years later as the survivors of humanity eke out an existence in a world where the very laws of physics are questionable. I was inspired in part by Stephen King's Dark Tower and Robert E. Howard's Conan as Lovecraft so our heroes aren't completely helpless--just mostly.
I've already got the first two volumes of the Red Room series submitted to Permuted Press and the first volume of Cthulhu Apocalypse. Right now I'm working on the sequel to Cthulhu Apocalypse and have the third Red Room sketched out. We'll see where things go from there.
Thanks for your interest, folks!
