Hope you like the new website design. Eventually, I’d like to add a more flashy header, but I like the way I can better display my available books with this format. The more flashy header will come sooner or later. Not to mention that the really cool Amazon carousel didn’t fit the old theme.
Bubba Goes for Broke released
Pentucket Publishing has just released my crime caper novel, Bubba Goes for Broke, written under the pen name David Bawdy. It’s available in all electronic formats; a trade paperback will be released in the summer. Since it’s an R-rated novel — you might call it bawdy — I felt compelled to use a pen name to distinguish this book from my […]
Congrats to Scott Carter
Congratulations to my friend Scott William Carter for winning the Oregon Book Award. His terrific Young Adult novel, The Last Great Getaway of the Water Balloon Boys, won the Leslie Bradshaw Award for Young Adult Literature. Check out Scott’s work, both his novels and short stories. He’s an excellent writer.
Bubba Goes for Broke

(A blurb is that glowing quote from another writer that when potential readers see it on the cover, prompts them to plunk down their hard-earned cash.) This next blurb comes from Greg Neri, author […]
Sale of a ghost story
I’m delighted to announce that I’ve sold “Automobile Graveyard” to the anthology Ghostology. The story is a personal favorite that came out of a scary situation, after which I asked,”What if?” I didn’t really want to go there, but the intensity of my own emotions carried into the story. Or at least I think so. It’s the only story […]
Two stories available on Kindle and NOOK
For the first time, I’ve got stories available for the Kindle and NOOK. (Versions for the iPad and other formats will follow soon.) Beloved After David slays Goliath, he falls head over heels in love with himself. But he’s not alone. King Saul’s daughter Michal intends to become his wife even if her father offers […]
More Music For Another World reviews
Some more good reviews have come out for Music For Another World, the British anthology that includes my story “Blue Note Heaven.” One review called it “one of the anthology’s most original stories” which was really nice to read. The trade paper version is still only available through Amazon UK, but there’s a Kindle version now. Here […]
