To see all twelve of them, go to The Year of the Cat Series Page There you can get information on all twelve books, see the covers, the contents, and how to order them. Here is the cover for #12.

    I Have Books In Three Bundles…

    At The Same Time… This Never Happens… I am usually happy to be in a bundle every three months or so. So folks, if you want to get some amazing reading by other authors, and get four of my books, (And four of Kris’s books) now is the time to grab all three bundles. A couple of them are vanishing fairly soon, so don’t miss them. Here are descriptions and pictures and links of all three bundles. In the www.StoryBundle.com/Crime I have a Cold Poker Gang novel BAD BEAT, and I have a collection of best crime stories from Pulphouse Magazine that I edited called Twist of a Knife. Plus…

    Book #2 of 70 Book Challenge

    Just Came Out on November 17th… So two books in the first week of the challenge. How fun is that? The challenge is to publish 70 major books while I am 70 years old. And just like the first book, this book is now premiering in a nifty new Space Opera Storybundle curated by Robert Jeschonek. The first book of the challenge is still in the Crime Storybundle.

    I Think This Is Cool!

    Three of My Collections… As most of you know, I seldom talk about my books or what I am publishing here, except when I am doing a challenge or writing in public on a project. But last year I did do a nifty Make 100 Short Stories Kickstarter that many of you backed. And you should have gotten two of the three large anthologies promised. But when I looked at all three of them together on WMG Publishing site, I found it very cool. So take a glance. I love the branding and the look and am proud of those three collections.

    Limited Signed Editions

    Of Two Major Books… Back in 1987, Kris and I started Pulphouse Publishing, Inc. And for years, Pulphouse only published limited, signed editions in both cloth and leather. After a few years we branched out some into things like Pulphouse: A Fiction Magazine and Short Story Paperbacks, but even those paperbacks had fifty copy limited and signed leather editions. (Don’t even ask what the limited, signed, leather edition of the George Martin Short Story Paperback is worth these days.) But when we started up WMG Publishing back 2010, we decided to not do limited editions at first. And then as the years went by, we just never got around to…
