Thanks to Patrick and Sandra Jones for the Help Launching His Revenge

November 9, 2015November 9, 2015 ~ John W. Howell

Patrick and His wife Sandy are a great team. They have posted a launch announcement on their blog. You can go HERE and see it.

Patrick is the author of two very frightening books, The wolf’s Moon, and The River. I have read both and swear I will never go hunting and fishing again. You can find Patrick’s books on Amazon. Also, Sandy has been so very supportive on Twitter that I had to give her a shout out as well and her twitter handle @SandraJones44.

Here are Patrick’s books.

Here is more about Patrick Jones

Pat Jones was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. His special interests include the science of paleoanthropology and archeology. Woodworking is one of his favorite hobbies, with special emphasis on the unique grains and textures of various species of trees. He and his wife, Sandy, thrive on designing and creating a flower garden of perennials, second to none! Constantly evolving, the garden began as a way that he could surprise his wife on her birthday. The rest is history! The garden now spans one-fourth of an acre!

When their children graduated from school, the couple relocated to rural Missouri where they now reside with their four dogs. The love of the area, in combination with the uniqueness of the people, provided the impedance for “The Wolf’s Moon”. A short story, “The River,” followed shortly thereafter. The sequel to “The Wolf’s Moon” is already in the works and proves to be yet another suspenseful page-turner!

Pat believes that there is a story in everything. Everybody that he meets has their own special story; one simply has to take the time to listen. The story then writes itself. Please visit our website at http://www.thelindenchronicles.com Thank you for your interest!

A Thank You, Ionia Martin for Helping Launch His Revenge

November 8, 2015 ~ John W. Howell ~ 4 Comments

Ionia Martin is helping with the launch of His Revenge. She has a post on her Readfulthings blog announcing the launch that you can read HERE. Ionia is a very special person who has continually helped authors succeed. She is a fabulous reviewer and ranks in the top 500 reviewers on Amazon. On a personal note, she has been instrumental in giving me the courage to break away from my publisher and self-publish my books. Her favorite piece of advice is “do it.”

You should know Ionia has published three excellent books in the last few months. You can see them all on Amazon.

Here are the books (WARNING: YOU MUST HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR TO ENJOY THURSDAY THE TWELFTH AND PLUNDERING THE ROMANCE NOVEL. If not, stay away)

Here is a little more about Ionia in her words.

“I’m currently working on writing a series of comedy books that spoof the various genres of literature (as well as some historical events) and point out common pitfalls in genre fiction. When I’m not working on those, I’m devoting my time to reading, and the study of Colonial America. (Yes, I can be serious once in a while, but who wants to make a career out of that?)

I love to travel and explore new places to get ideas for my books. I also have a lot of fun on my blog, Readful Things. Hope to see you there!

I’ve got four little boys who keep me pretty busy, and my ten-year-old son is already practising his own book writing skills (uh-oh.) I love hearing your thoughts and opinions on my work, be they positive or negative. I really appreciate you taking the time to visit my small slice of this great big Amazon and wish you all the best things life can bring! ”

Big hug to you Ionia.

He’s been writing since childhood, having co-authored a play he saw performed by and for classmates and staff during his time in fifth grade. As a teenager and young adult, Beem wrote concert and record reviews for a small publication. Journalism had been his intended field from an early age, but all that changed with the publication of a short story that eventually led to his first novel, Jazz Baby. Beem enjoys indie films, loud music, and a well-told story. He is currently hard at work on his second novel–though that’s a slow-go at times

Thanks, to John Fioravanti for the help on the My Revenge Launch #RRBC

John Fioravanti author has written four books. You can see them on Amazon. His newest is THE GENESIS SAGA: BOOK TWO

Here is the blurb.

Marco Rossini is the Vice President of Genesis, and the civilian commander of the elite Alpha Corps special forces. His skills and courage are about to be tested in ways he could not have foreseen.

It is 2797 CE, and after centuries fractured along religious and social lines, planet Genesis is inching painfully toward unity. The civilian and Churcher executives of a new, hybrid government are convinced that without reform their society will not survive… but they are beset by challenges from fanatics who are determined to destroy all initiatives that might lead to positive change.

Marco’s close brush with death and his miraculous recovery with the help of the Earthers has steeled his resolve to fight for an egalitarian society… but can this academic-turned-political leader vanquish his enemies, save his love, and still preserve his own humanity?
