Another 500 words today. I got the paperback cover back for Dead Rat Walking so I’ll publish that later today. I’m doing a hardcover with this book too and my designer is also working on that.
Compared to the last few days, today was very quiet, which I appreciated! I got my emails cleared out and down to around 10, down from almost 200. Sorry if you emailed me and it took me a while to respond.
I wrote some words toward Indie Author Confidential Vol. 7 and spent the rest of the day planning out the strategy book. The goal is to start writing either later tonight or tomorrow. This may be a short book as I only have a few key things I want to hit. But I always say that…
Anyway, I’ve got a new book to announce.
INTRODUCING…DEAD RAT WALKING (THE CHICAGO RAT SHIFTER BOOK 1)
Meet Cyrus Grant, rat shifter.
He's currently getting washed through a sewer in a thunderstorm, fighting for his life beneath the streets of Chicago.
He's covered in trash and he's about to drown. And he's being hunted by a mad scientist and an evil fae. Just another day in the life of a rat…
Aren't shifters supposed to be wolves, or dudes with hairy manchests who effortlessly destroy paranormal creatures? The gods must have missed the memo.
All Cyrus wanted to do was find a job so he could stop sleeping on his sister's couch. Now his current occupation is staying alive.
If he thought the paranormal underbelly of the city was brutal, the secret world of rats is even worse. If he can't survive, he's a dead rat walking.
This is a different kind of shifter urban fantasy story, paying homage to King Rat but told in the 3rd person similar to Moonheart by Charles deLint. You won't be able to stop reading, and you'll never look at a rat the same way again.
