Posted some favorite books of 2025 on Instagram and forgot to add King Sorrow.
Felt bad for a minute, then realized Joe Hill will probably be fine even without my endorsement.
Anyway, for the record, I enjoyed King Sorrow.

A copy of my newest book is for sale on EBay for almost twice its cover price.
I can’t figure out the business model that makes that work.

A fantasy/adventure novella for everyone. When James journeys to Dreamland, not only does he experience exciting adventures but learns important life lessons as well, like setting goals and to never give up. A perfect gift for this Christmas season.

Your Favorite Scary Movie by Ashley Cullins
A great book for fans of the Scream movies.
Behind the scenes story of how the movies were made, with plenty of insights from the cast and crew. Super interesting.

Looking at the cast of Scream 7, I can’t help but be a little suspicious of Ethan Embry being a villain.

We went to see Sisu: Road to Revenge today. Just like the first movie, this was highly entertaining. Sure some suspension of disbelief is in order, but that doesn’t detract from the fun.
It’s as if Wolverine was in a John Wick Mad Max western set around World War II.

If we could somehow manage 10 preorders for A Dark Whimsy before its November 13th release, I’d consider it a major win.
Preorders for the ebook of A Dark Whimsy are now live on the Zon. A strong book release would be a neat thing, so please consider preordering.
