May December Publications

08/11/2019

looks like we are going to try and do some scheduling for MDP for 2020. What looks like now will be a couple more DEAD books, a couple of Children's books, and it looks like Molly Malone will make an appearance as well!

19/10/2018

Just signed on a new editor for MDP! She is ready to not only edit for me - but is open to take on other jobs as well...Her 'day job' is a teacher - so she is the perfect person for the job. If you are in need of an editor - shoot me a line!

I am looking to publish TWO books...one from each side. Anyone want to send in a submission send to [email protected] for consideration

06/10/2018

Hello everyone. Let me give you a bit of an update. July 21, 2014 I lost my son just a week shy of his 19th birthday to a diabetic coma. I couldn't keep working with the awesome people that I was working with and give them the attention of what they deserved. It has now been 4 years and I have been doing a LOT of work, and some of that work means that it is NOW time to open up May December Publications once again and make it the company that we were planning on in the first place. May December Publications is a place for horror AND speculative fiction. I am going to break the company into two parts and keep the horror in the December - cold side and the Spec Fiction in the May - warm side. I am going to have two different versions for the book covers to incorporate these changes. So, with that being said...Welcome to the NEW MDP page. I hope you will join me and help me make MDP a success!

New post (DEAD Fan Fiction (Conclusion)) has been published on TWBrown

You don’t need me wasting your time…you are here to see how it ends. The Conclusion Denise’s house was in the middle of nowhere. She maintained a large garden, plush with fresh vegetables. She pickled most of the extras in a large walk in food pantry. She had a chicken coop with ten hens and ....

New post (What do you do for fun?) has been published on TWBrown

I share a lot of the things I do in my professional world. Writing and that sort of thing. Then there are my dogs and training them for various events. What I don’t talk enough about is what I do for fun. I would love to say that it includes such things as hiking and …

New post (My first Newf) has been published on TWBrown

The day she came home, Freyja already stole my heart. She was this little puff ball of black fur that loved to stand between my feet anytime she was unsure. This would be something she has continued to do to this day. I had no idea just how much work I had ahead of me …

New post (What the books won't tell you about a Newfoundland) has been published on TWBrown

If you think you will find everything you need to know about what it takes to own a Newfie, I hate to break it to you, but there is SO much they DON'T tell you. I am going to share the "good" and the "bad". These are not get-it-and-forget-it dogs.

New post (The Newfoundland...my journey) has been published on TWBrown

The next few months will be dedicated to the Newfoundland. I will share stories about what the supposed "Breed Specialty" books don't tell you. I will pull the curtain back and reveal not just the good, but also the "bad" when it comes to choosing a Newfoundland. Welcome to the world of the Newf.

If you made it this far, you deserve a prize. I have my one dedicated Beta reader (that’s you, Vix), but if you would like to get a jump on the rest of the world and be a “special, honorary” Beta reader for DEAD” Darkness Before Dawn, simply leave a comment today at the end …

New post (Chapter Thirteen: Buy the Book (or...“Extra! Extra! Read all about it!”)) has been published on TWBrown

Are you still with me? No worries…almost finished. There is another yardstick in which to measure the rise of the zombie’s star: book stores. Where, once, the bookshelves were practically bare, there is now a plethora of zombie fiction to choose from. One telling sign of its growth is that a mul...

New post (Chapter Twelve: Remakes, Rip-offs and Ribaldry (or...“You mean the movie lied?”)) has been published on TWBrown

There is an oft used line from Monty Python…the only wield it when it is clear they have no real ending in mind for a skit. Usually delivered by the late Graham Chapman…”Stop it! That’s just silly.” Horror needed that reminder as the Eighties spun out of control. If all that is wanted form...

New post (Chapter Eleven: Horror’s Dawn (or...“Once bitten...twice shy.”)) has been published on TWBrown

Today, it is all about the zombie. Love it or hate it…or think it has been overused to the point of market saturation…the zombie is here to stay. Dawn of the Dead would bring the gruesome violence of the zombie to audiences in vivid color. While Night of the Living Dead was filmed in black …

New post (Chapter Ten: The Dead of Night (or...“They’re coming to get you, Barbara.”)) has been published on TWBrown

Now we get to the “meat” of my thesis. And thank goodness for Romero. I actually owe my career to him as do many of my friends and colleagues. The American mythos of the zombie must be credited to Romero. According to an article in The Wall Street Journal, “Mr. Romero’s classic 1968 horror f...
