I read an article one day about a soldier who didn’t know what to do once her tour of duty was over. She went to Africa, where she hunted poachers on a wildlife preservation, and I found her story so incredible that I was inspired to write a story of my own. If the idea of a strong female soldier fighting warlords, militia, poachers, and one seriously pi**ed off ancient monster intrigues you, then check out Poacher. It’s available now on Amazon and my website.

Typos suck! And somehow those little gremlins hide during the editing phase and you spot one when your beautiful book is published and ready for the world to read. Fret not! It happens to the best of us, and even the most prolific authors, editors, and publishers.

I’m an outliner, and I like to know where my story and my characters are headed at all times. But sometimes during the writing process, the characters decide their own path and suddenly their predestined path doesn’t fit. Sometimes your characters choose their own path no matter how much it annoys you. Listen to them, and enjoy the journey they take you on.

Talk about a we**ie roast! 🔥

Tonight’s campfire story is Cannibal Fat Camp: The Pampered Camper Edition. If you like your stories gross and funny, then this is the book for you. This edition comes packed with 8 bonus short stories from the authors. If the Lord of the Flies with a touch of Yellowjackets and a smidge of Garbage Pail Kids appeals to you, then check this one out.
