A shameless plug for myself today!

Standard

Hiya everyone!

Sorry I have been absent, but there are all kinds of things happening in my life recently, and I needed to focus on these situations. Life does get in the way of blogging, sometimes! 🙂

But now, I have time to dive in and today, I am being utterly shameless and egocentric by promoting little ol’ me! Yes – author Sharon L. Higa: writer of horror, supernatural thrillers and fantasy/action is being brought to your attention!

I have a few books which truly need some reviews, friends and neighbors! They are all on Amazon.com, and if you have already read them, please do me a favor and write a review! If you have not, then feel free to grab a book and go for it!

My actual novels are:  # 6, Rose & Steel, Desert Tracks, Horrors & Occupational Hazards.

my novellas- The Dam, Z-REGEN.

I have several short stories in anthologies also listed there, and any and all could use a few reviews to bolster my rankings.

Thanks for helping a fellow author/friend/family member out in advance, and have a great week! 🙂

 

Playing catch-up today!

Hello All!

Hope you are fine and fit, and having good, positive things happen in your lives!

I have been busy with events in my own life, so I do apologize for not being as diligent as I should be when it comes to blogging.

Now that that’s out of the way – let’s go!

I want to put a shout-out to several authors whose novels I have read recently. They all can be found on Amazon.com, so I do recommend you all check them out, because each and every one is unique and refreshing in their own writing style!

So, here is my list:

“Surviving Stephen” by Rachel Holbrook. “Alabama Rising”  by BJ Gillum.

“Six Minutes to Midnight” by Cheryl Peyton. “Red Robin” by RB Tetro.

“Order of the Firewalker” by Richard D. Ramsey. “Forgotten-books 1 & 2” by Samie Sands.

“The Trident” by Melanie Dahman.  “The Hunted Tribe – book 1” by Roma Gray.

“Trip Trap” by Lisamarie Lamb.  “Splat” – a morbid anthology edited by John Ledger and T.s. Woolard.

A little bit of “somethinsomethin’ ” for everyone!

Until next time –

Read lots, enjoy and review, and have a great week 🙂

Apologies for the lack of blogging!

Standard

Hello everyone!

I want to apologize for not being on the ‘blog spot’ for a couple of weeks. Unfortunately, I went and caught me a bad case of the flu bug that has been going around, so it’s incapacitated me for pretty much darn near everything!

However, you can now see I am back at the keyboard, once again typing my stubby, little fingers to the bone both in blogging and writing! LOL

I would like to share a word or two today about reviews, if I may.  I have had the chance to read a lot this past few weeks, and have been able to post quite a few reviews for those authors who I was blessedly able to peruse during this time. I also scanned quite a few other authors reviews, and would like to say, once more, that reviews are a very necessary part in keeping authors in the public eye.

So please, keep in mind that reviews are what help to keep us going. They are greatly appreciated and very welcome. It give us constructive feedback, not only on what we have written and published, but in helping us to better our writing for your future enjoyment.

Thank you so much, in advance, for leaving a review, and please be sure to pass the word on to others.

Have a great week, and don’t be shy about letting us know what you think of our stories, both big and small!  🙂

New! Psychological Terror from JEA’s one and only Catt Dahman!

Standard

Hello and Happy New Year! Today I want to share with you all a new ‘goody’ from one of our fantastic female authors, and the founder of JEA Press, Catt Dahman.  I highly recommend her work if you like psychological as well as supernatural horror!  Please check out this little story from one seriously twisted, incredibly gifted mind – and don’t forget to share your review!

Blood Tradition by [dahman, catt ]

At the start of the day Ripley had nothing more on her mind than doing well at her new job. She never envisioned that a lunch date with some of her co-workers would ensnare her in a nightmare involving abduction, rape and death. Yet when a pair of deranged lunatics with murderous plans in mind hijack their vehicle while they are paused at a traffic light, that’s precisely what happens with the kidnapped trio of women forced to drive out of the city and deep into the backwoods. Shaken and terrified, Ripley manages to evade the bloody fate in store for her, with the assistance of retired police officers Henry and EZ, but her relief is a fleeting thing. Flagging down a passing bus loaded with tourists seems like a good way out, but the bad weather swirling around them has other ideas. On roads slick with deadly ice and populated by hazardous hairpin curves, the tour bus loses control and crashes on the outskirts of a small backwoods town. Now, the lot of them are about to find things going from bad to worse. Stranded by the storm in the strange township of Carn, with the local authorities seemingly in no rush to lend assistance, Ripley, Henry, EZ and the tourists are about to discover the gruesome secret of this rustic little community. There is a blood tradition here and soon enough, the blood is going to run…

Hoping you all had a wonderful Christmas…now…back to blogging authors! :)

Today, I would like to focus on a solid family guy, a great chef who lives across the pond, and one very talented author! (One of these days, I’m going to row-boat across and taste test his food!)

Mark Woods has some pretty unique takes on horror – from sublime to right in your face, he is one I would recommend reading at any given time you would like a chill or three.

Below is his Amazon page from the UK, but don’t fret, fellow readers – you can find him in the good ol’ US of A Amazon.com as well!

Mark Woods:   : “www.amazon.co.uk   OR   https://www.amazon.com/Mark-Woods/e/B00F5ZCMAG/ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1?qid=1482760323&sr=1-1

Have a good day recuperating from this weekend’s Christmas festivities, and gear yourselves up for this weekend:  It’s NEW YEAR’S!

Take care, be well, stay safe and read often in this up-and-coming year!  🙂
