The theme of this spooktacular blog hop is:      
What Scares You?

To get this blog hop kick-started, here's a spook-fession from Thomas Sullivan, Pulitzer-nominated author of Born Burning and Case White:

Heights scare me! We’re talking 1 inch above sea level. Easiest way to undo evolution and prove humans are really quadrupeds is to put me up on a roof. Instant all fours! I mean, I’ll get up there and do what I have to do, but I hate every second of it. I’m like a fly crawling around over shingles. I mean don’t people have any imagination? All that space between you and the ground? Splat! Yeah, good ol’ terra firma. I want to be on top of it (not under it). Trick-or-treat!

Preorder OLD GHOSTS by JOSEPH J. CHRISTIANO now!




Old Ghosts is Joseph J. Christiano’s first collection of novellas and takes you from the darkest days of World War II Europe to the idyllic New England town of Deacon’s Landing.  

In these six assembled tales of terror, you will witness how an act of unspeakable evil dooms the crew of a crashed German bomber in “emet.” A rookie trucker takes to a dangerous mountain pass and comes face to face with the legend of “The Highwayman.” A suicidal woman who has lost her family and her arm experiences a bizarre and terrifying form of “Phantom Pain.” An online gamer enters a world of horror when he is granted the ability to play his favorite game in “God Mode.” A professional assassin known only as “The Frenchman” gets in over his head when he takes a job for a mob boss.  And an elderly man returns to his hometown for his mother’s 
funeral and encounters some “Old Ghosts.”

Whether he is telling stories of the frozen battlefields of a devastated Europe or the mundane anxiety of trying to impress a new employer, Joseph J. Christiano demonstrates his knowledge of what scares you and puts that knowledge to good use in these six novellas.

Young Adult Novel MIRA

by Ellen Fritz

Paperback and Ebook

Available June 8!



 Lexi Collins, an ordinary college student, has no idea that her genetic legacy is about to plunge her into a world she never knew existed.  A world with two warring alien races who have hidden among us for thousands of years. One race plots to conquer the earth, the other strives to live among us in peace.

Coping with her altered life, protecting innocent victims, and falling in love while trying to finish college and keep the ordinary humans around her unaware of what is really going on, Lexi finds herself balancing situations she could never have imagined.  Lexi enters a life that is wondrous, delightful, dangerous and terrifying, as she becomes the catalyst for events that could change the balance of power between the alien races.


Appropriate and enjoyable for all ages, Mira plunges the reader into Lexi’s complicated, extraordinary world and introduces likeable characters facing complex situations.  It is a world that is at times fun, at times perilous, but never dull when the fate of two alien races and the humans around them is hanging in the balance.
