Sixteen hours to go!

In sixteen hours, the Kickstarter campaign for Death of Secrets will come to an end. I am already overwhelmed by the level of support shown by my friends. If you still want to back the book, go to http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1785187395/death-of-secrets. You can get a signed copy of the book as a reward, or more!

Once the novel goes to publication at the end of the month, I am prepared for anything. It could sell no more copies than the 40 people who are already backing it. In my dream world, it will sell millions of copies and I can become a professional novelist. More likely, of course, is somewhere in between. I trust God for the outcome. I know that He loves me, and that however many copies of the novel sell, he will use that for my good.

Whatever happens, I have already learned that I have Grade A friends who are willing to put their personal resources on the line to help me chase a dream. Thank you. Thank you all.

Blown away

I’ve been simply blown away by the great friends I have. God works through people, and I am richly blessed.

The Kickstarter campaign to fund Death of Secrets has already exceeded its first goal before day one was even over.

Now is the time to pour on the gas! You can reserve a signed copy of the book — and help launch the novel with a full-scale marketing campaign — just by clicking here:

Thank you to everyone who’s helping. You’re truly humbling me, and making this adventure life-affirming.

Cover Art

The cover art for my novel came in this morning. “Excited” doesn’t even really cover it. Hopefully the Kickstarter campaign will be up and running by Tuesday…

Death of Secrets - High Resolution

Death of Secrets

My friends, 2014 is the year I finally live out my dream. I’m publishing a novel! Death of Secrets is already written, and will be available by the end of January. Watch for a Kickstarter campaign to help fund the marketing, and Facebook and Twitter feeds for updates about the book. I’m thrilled to be finally doing this, and I can’t wait for you all to read it.

What’s it about? I’m glad you asked!

What if our government went beyond monitoring e-mail and phone traffic? What if the surveillance state exceeded anything we’ve imagined so far. What if there were no secrets at all?

Kathy Kelver is an innocent bystander who becomes a witness to murder. Mike Vincent is a Member of Congress who sits on the House Intelligence Committee. Their paths will cross as they uncover a new technology with implications so chilling it would represent the end of privacy as we know it.

Together, Mike and Kathy find themselves running for their lives as they try to save the country from the death of secrets.
