Mailbag Monday

Got a few questions this week to share with everyone. If you have a question that you want answered here, just email me with the subject "Mailbag Monday".



Q: When will the rest of the Cain Series be out on Audiobooks?

A: Directive is being finished up now. Actually, the work is finished. Just waiting for the cover work to be done. Should be out and available within the next 2-3 weeks. I would think Redemption should be done end of February-ish? That would mean it's available late March probably.

Q: I've read one of your books on my computer, but don't have a tablet or anything to download the rest. I don't really prefer to read on the computer though. I've noticed you don't have paperbacks. Why not? And will you release yours in paperback at some point?

A: Good question, and one I've been pondering myself lately. I'm leaning toward releasing paperback versions at some point later in the year. If not this year, definitely 2018. The main reason I haven't yet is that since I'm not published by a major publishing house, book store paperback sales will be rather slim. Also, I make as much from a $2.99 e-book as I will from a $10 paperback. But in saying that, I do want to give any fans of mine as many ways to read my material as humanly possible. So it will happen.

Q: I just finished reading The Silencer and loved it. Just wondering when the rest of the series will be available?

A: Soon! Fully Loaded (Silencer #2) is undergoing some last minute editing changes. Then it needs cover work and formatting. I'm assuming that will all be done relatively quickly and should be available to purchase by the end of January. Certainly no later than the first week of February. Hard Target (Silencer #3) is also in editing right now and assuming nothing crazy happens, I'd say a release date of late Feb/early Mar. is looking likely. Blowback (Silencer #4) is not yet finished but should be soon. I'd assume a release date of June-Aug., but that's just a guess as of now. Don't hold me to that last one. Could be more after that. Haven't really decided yet on how many there will be in the series.


That's it for this week. Love the questions and feedback from you guys. Emails I get saying how much you like my work really means a lot to me and keeps me going.

Love ya guys!

Kindle Unlimited

Just wanted to announce some changes to the status of a few of my books. The CIA Ghost series (Rogue Ghost, and Ghost Pursuit) will be taken off Kobo, Barnes & Noble, and Apple effective immediately. Both books will be under an exclusive agreement with Amazon and available in the Kindle Unlimited program. The Cain series is unaffected by this and will still be available on all sales channels.

This has been something I've been thinking about and debating for the last two weeks. I really didn't want to be exclusive with Amazon as I didn't want to possibly miss readers through other sales channels. But the reality is that the books are mostly only selling on Amazon anyway. The Cain series is getting decent sales on other outlets but the Ghost series is mostly only seeing traction on Amazon. So I'm gonna test this out for a few months and see how it goes. If you don't typically get books through Amazon and still want the books you can always download the Kindle app. I realize this might be annoying to some or put people off, which is why I've been delaying this, but I need to try to maximize sales as best I can.

Here are the links to Amazon (U.S.) for the Ghost series:

Rogue Ghost


Ghost Pursuit



Thanks for understanding (hopefully). If it makes sense to pull the books out at some point and go back to a wide release, then I'll certainly do so at that time.

Updates

Just passing on some interesting little tidbits. The sequel to Rogue Ghost will be released in late June...right now it's looking like June 22...but it's not set in stone yet. It will be called Ghost Pursuit. Cover's done, just got it this past week. Looks great. Just waiting for formatting to be done then it'll be all set.


I've gotten a few emails about when The Cain Redemption will be released. Current plans have it being published in September. Still have some editing issues to work out, there's no cover yet, etc. My focus right now is on getting Ghost Pursuit out. Once that's been released my full attention will go back to Redemption. I'm shooting for Sept. 1 for the release date. But that's still flexible at this point.

Rogue Ghost Release Date

Rogue Ghost cover

Here it is. The cover for Rogue Ghost. Will announce the release date tomorrow!

Rogue Ghost

Got five or six sample covers yesterday to look over and I have to say they look pretty good. I've got it narrowed down to two. Pretty sure I know which it'll be, but wanna take an extra day to make sure. I'll probably post the final cover in a couple days once I have it.

New book

If The Cain Redemption is too long a wait for you, I've got a new book coming out much quicker. It's called Rogue Ghost. I've talked of it before. Short synopsis is it's about a female CIA agent who's been tasked to find her partner who's gone rogue with government secrets. I'm already halfway done book two, which will be called Ghost Pursuit.

Anyway, Rogue Ghost has been edited, cover's being worked on now as we speak. Formatting will be done within the next week or two. It should be released toward the end of April or early May. Hope everyone will like it.
