Something a Little Different

I'm happy to announce that another story of mine has now become available. This time, I've gone outside my usual territory and written my first story for the young adult fantasy genre.

PROM DATES TO DIE FOR is a new anthology from an exciting publisher called Buzz Books. Now available as a print book or an e-book, this anthology includes short stories by five different authors, including me, all based on what happens when paranormal events take place at the prom.

My story, "A Kiss on the Threshold," is the tale of a young man, a musician, who is mostly a loner in high school and has no intention of even going to the prom, but is convinced by a series of events to attend the dance and ends up facing a very strange threat that only he is really aware of.

While I've never intentionally written for what is now called the "young adult" audience, I found that it's really no different than writing any other type of story. After all, readers, regardless of age, all want the same things: excitement, suspense, danger, mystery, romance, etc. So while the genre label might be a little different than the descriptions you'd see applied to my other books, I think anybody who has enjoyed any of my other work will enjoy this story too, and there's some great stuff by the other writers in the anthology as well. I hope everyone reading this will be encouraged to check it out.

PROM DATES TO DIE FOR is now available on Amazon as a print book:

The book will also be available for Nook and on Smashwords very soon, and I'll post those links when it's time.
