Come check out my newest story, Say My Name, on Wattpad! So far only a chapter has been published. I have the entire story written in a notebook though. It's a book about what would've happened if WW2 turned South and ended up in a nuclear winter. It revolves around a Russian soldier named Arno Petrov and how even when there's nothing left to take, his enemies keep coming, coming, and coming. My Wattpad is ciaran-beat. Here's an excerpt to pique your interest:

Papa used to say, "Pain is the fire that forges our great strength, and keeps us warm in this godforsaken weather." He usually said the last bit after a long drag from a hand-rolled cigarette. The smoke would evaporate like the frozen vapor from my mouth, and he would turn the snow brown by crushing the stick beneath his boot.

That same snow, which had once been clean enough to roll syrup from with a stick, now turned into brown slush from the trains. Our little town, that had a population change from thirty to one hundred and fifteen men with red bands. Though some had been pulled from civilized life and branded with the mark that marked them anti-semitic, whether by choice or not, they were all the same scum to me.

I had once been in the same position. Wearing the same boots until the soles thinned and snow bit me blue. Holding the same rifle that undoubtedly waved a red banner. But even when everything was up against me, or news that the father of our great country had fallen over to them, I knew where my morals lay.

They could take our children, and rape our women, but they could never strip away what we stood for. They had ruined our red, but never stained the gold that forged our hammer and sickle. For as long as I stood, I would embody what we had once been. Brave. And everything those Nazi pigs weren't.

Then there was David, lording it up at Buckingham Palace, thinking he was king of the shit heap. That guy was definitely nuts, like every dictator that had gone before him. Nero, Caligula, Henry the Eighth, Napoleon, Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, Margaret Thatcher, Colonel Gaddafi, that crazy North Korean bastard who was in Team America, Kim Jong whatever.

Camp Daze Kickstarter (finally) launching this Friday afternoon!

Blurb: With summer winding down, the counselors at Camp Aspen Heart are counting the days until they go home to their own beds after weeks of songs and campouts and budding friendships. But a missing food delivery after the start of one of the last sessions sets off alarms in the isolated camp. With no easy way to contact the outside world Conifer, a survivalist who grew up going to the camp every summer before becoming a counselor herself, heads out to try and find out what is going on, only to be confronted with the unthinkable: a nuclear war has started, and they’ve been forgotten. Conifer was raised to survive the end of the world. Any end of the world. Except this one, alone in the woods with over 150 kids to save and only a handful of other young counselors to help her.

Camp Daze is an adult novel that will also appeal to fans of YA stories. It is the first book in a planned three book series. Great for fans of All That's Left in the World by Erik J. Brown and Prepped by Bethany Mangle.

This Kickstarter will fund the initial print run of the paperback and a special edition hardback, as well as covering the costs of editing and some marketing! The special edition will have a unique case design and interior illustrated elements. Plus, as we go, we'll unlock even more upgrades for it!

Read the first two chapters on my website for free!

Back the project now!

SHATTER ME by Tahereh Mafi

SHATTER ME by Tahereh Mafi

I’m packing in the books I’m reading by the dozens. As in, I’m now reading about three books a week. If I keep this up, I’ll finish my 2017 list in four months! Shatter Me was one of those books. It’s a book probably most of you have heard of or at least seen the cover of. It’s a beautiful cover, isn’t it? I don’t even know if it was ever on my to-read list. I’d never heard one bad review on it…
