I am so excited to have had over a half-million readers stop by ThrillWriting
My goal has always been to help you get to the research and the experts that will make your plotting-craft easier.
ThrillWriting came into being as I looked at the stacks of information I had collected in my own fiction writing process, and I thought, wow - it would have been nice to have had a one-stop-shop to gather all of this together. So I decided to share all of those long, long, long hours of research work with you.
Along the way...
I've met incredible people who have been enormously generous with their time and talent. Many of these experts have become fiction writers themselves, and I have enjoyed reading their novels and stretching my reading arms out to works that would not normally have crossed my path. I even read my first zombie books.
I have had so much fun with writers who have had questions about their plot points -- yes, the video I made of escaping from having my hands tied behind my back got me some offers that...well, it'll be a while before I do one of those videos again. But hearing about what you're writing and what's going on for you is a bright spot for me.
And yes, I have introduced much of my research into my own fiction writing.
When you buy my books, you're seeing this research in action, and supporting this blog, so I can continue to bring you interesting articles.
Along a more traditional route is my novella MINE which is now a part of the UNLUCKY SEVEN collection.
Along a MUCH less traditional route, I did some experimental fiction with English ex-pat John Dolan in CHAOS IS COME AGAIN - and no we never have met and yes, even on Skype he wears that hat. I'm assuming it comes off at least when he showers and sleeps - but he's in Thailand doing those things.
And this spring, I am thrilled to finally be bringing you my LYNX series. Serial killers, black ops, spy games, psychic links, special ops guys, and a kick-ass heroine Lexi Sobado who is Unschooled - Unconventional - and Unstoppable. All kinds of fun!
Thank you for joining me on the ride. I truly appreciate each of you for coming by for non-fiction information, and then for supporting me by reading my fiction, as well. I adore the friends I've made, and I'm looking forward to getting to know you better as we head down the literary path together.
