Anthocon was a good experience for us. Made some new friends had a good time...

See this for more...

One of the best parts of all conventions is seeing old friends, making new ones, and interacting with fans (like to the two women from Maine who can never remember which issues ofShock Totemthey own, but always buy something—thank you!).

The Summer Son is available now in e-book and physical formats. All four books look mighty fine when they are sitting on a bookshelf together, although they look pretty nice on your Kindle too.

In The Summer Son, the last volume of The Rift, the end is at hand. A small group of men and women who have survived the plague now find themselves trapped between Sam's Children, a host of undead beasts, and the SNF, an army of living men no less vile. To defeat both enemies, the survivors will ...

Okay, all you Ipad users, I have a couple updates for you.

I emailed support this message:

I have had multiple readers contact me regarding my new release's availability for their ipad. This is the title - http://www.amazon.com/The-Summer-Rift-Book-ebook/dp/B008OYSUZQ/ref=la_B003XG6JQC_1_11_title_0_main?ie=UTF8&qid=1343356656&sr=1-11

I am wondering why, if they were able to purchase the other books for the device, they are not able to do so for this book? One of the readers contacted support and was told that the publisher (me) did not add the ipad as an accepted device. I am not sure what I did wrong here, as I uploaded it just as I have every other
time.

Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated. I'm very concerned
about this.

Sincerely,
Robert Duperre

And this is the reply I received today:

Hello Robert,

I'm very sorry for any problem this issue has caused. We'll need a little time to look into the availability .

We will contact you with more information by the end of the day on Thursday August 2.

Thanks for your patience.
Regards,
Erick P.

So they're working on it. Fingers crossed they figure it out soon. Sorry to everyone for the inconvenience.

Shock Totem reviewed The Gate 2 today. A very good one. Check it out! http://www.shocktotem.com/06/27/2012/the-gate-2-13-tales-of-isolation-and-despair/

While horror has traditionally been associated with gore and the supernatural, it often finds it’s most fertile soil in ordinary themes that we are truly frightened of.
