Today is an exciting day for me. Today⎯August 2, 2022⎯is the release day for my new novel, NONE WITHOUT SIN. This is the culmination of almost two years worth of work. The new novel was first conceived during the last few weeks of 2019, shortly after completion of the edits to DEAD AIR. At the time, I had two characters, a vision of the opening scene, and a vague direction where I wanted the story to go. Over the following year as the pandemic raged on, I began to twist my words and manipulate my characters into a coherent tale about murder, deceit, and blackmail.
There have been a lot of changes made to the story from what it originally was intended to be. I have a proverbial pile of deleted scenes that were cut during the editing process with my publisher. Some characters have come and gone, one survived who was supposed to die, and a ton of grammatical errors were squashed by the incredible editing team at Camcat Books. The final result is now available at major book retailers everywhere. It is an exciting day for me.
I want to take a moment to acknowledge a few people who have been instrumental in bringing NONE WITHOUT SIN to bookstores everywhere.
First, I want to thank Sue Arroyo from Camcat Books, for taking a chance on another of my novels. It has been an incredible journey with Camcat Books, first with DEAD AIR, and now with NONE WITHOUT SIN.
Many thanks to my Camcat Books editor, Helga Schier, for making me sound far more coherent than I really am. Her development suggestions and edits really made NONE WITHOUT SIN what it is today. I couldn't ask for a better editor.
Thanks to the intrepid band of writers in my critique group: Christine Schulden, Paul Popiel, Ellie Searl, Sarah Fisher, and Marietta Fisher. All your feedback throughout the writing of NONE WITHOUT SIN was unbelievably helpful. I appreciated every suggestion and criticism.
Also, thanks to the entire crew at Camcat Books for all their efforts to bring NONE WITHOUT SIN to publication. From the cover design to the formatting to marketing, everything has been top notch, and it has been, as always, a pleasure working with each of you.
And finally, thanks to you, the reader. Without you, I would have no one to tell my stories to. I hope you enjoy reading this new book as much as I enjoyed writing it.
