Attention universe: I’m overjoyed to announce that HCI and I have reached an agreement to publish my latest project, a new novel entitled “Blood Zero Sky.”

What the heck does “Blood Zero Sky” mean, you ask? It means the most exciting, scary, thought-provoking, kick-butt dystopian teen novel you’ve ever read, that’s what it means. Look for it in the fall of 2012.

Here’s a video of me reading an excerpt from my newly released novel “Dark Territory: The Tracks, book 1″ at my hometown library in Marshall, Michigan. Enjoy!
