Evil Upriver - nominated for 54th Annual Georgia Author of the Year!
"The Georgia Writers Association recognizes Georgia's authors of excellence by presenting the Georgia Author of the Year Awards (GAYA). The GAYA has the distinction of being the oldest literary awards ceremony in the Southeastern United States while reflecting the current publishing world. The GAYA honors both independently published authors and those whose books are published by traditional publishing houses. The GAYA has grown in prestige and participation since its inception in 1964 by the Dixie Council of Authors and Journalists. The GAYA changed hands in 1990 to Georgia Writers Association (GWA), and in 2006, the GWA began a strong affiliation with Kennesaw State University's Department of Humanities."

The Flash
In the blink of an eye, humanity has been reversed to a bestial level by “The Flash”, an energy pulse of unknown origin. All higher thought processes have been erased, removing every trace of civilization and culture, leaving these new creatures concerned with three things: fornicating, feeding, and fighting.
The survivors must first find one another amid the chaos and destruction. The Scramblers are merciless, swarming over everything and everyone in their path. If they are lucky, those who survived the Flash will pick up the pieces left behind.
The People
Abigail and her brother, Aaron, are celebrating her 12th birthday at a popular restaurant with their parents. Cameron is working another Friday night behind the grill. Duke, a prison guard, has been placed on leave due to inmate abuse. Recent reports from the media state that the sun has been behaving strangely; a stronger than normal solar storm is expected to hit the Earth over the next week.
The four of them – Abigail, Aaron, Cameron, and Duke – survive the Flash. When they wake up, they find everything they’ve known has changed. Cameron is now in charge of two youngsters he’s never met, and Duke... Duke is still Duke. Cunning and violent, his ambition is far greater than the small town he lives in.
As Cameron and the kids come to grips with the threats they face, Duke returns to the prison he was barred from, where he settles in preparing for the unknown. They all hope to find sanctuary; while they have survived, those who were Flashed are different. They can’t speak. They can’t reason. They are no longer human, but still in human form.
Their struggles start in their respective small towns, until they eventually face each other in Atlanta. But after a decade trying to survive in the city, it becomes obvious they need to move...
ELSEWHERE
Atlanta is decaying as it slowly runs out of resources. The survivors of the Flash dream of living Elsewhere... A place where they can run in the grass, grow crops in real dirt, and not have to live with the constant threat of both human and scrambler attacks. Elsewhere becomes a dream, a catchphrase, “anywhere but here; Elsewhere”
Abigail, Aaron, and the residents of 'Decktown', a re-purposed parking deck in downtown Atlanta, have found Elsewhere. While they work to flee the city, Duke is watching, coveting... and once they leave the concrete shelter of their home, they'll have a hundred miles of scramblers to contend with.

. . . where things are far from normal. A young couple takes a meal in a roadside dive, and discovers everyone knows more than your name. Two good 'ole boys find that some things don't make good pets. A detective has more than just clues to help him solve crimes.
A young girl runs from the pain of her parent's death, into a world of rednecks, and a strange house that seems haunting familiar. A group of survivors huddle in a parking deck, surrounded by creatures who were once human. My worlds push the boundaries of fiction, mixing apocalyptic, horror, paranormal, and a dash of the weird; these are the sandboxes I create. Original stories, memorable characters, and a unique vision await you. |
Your world will never look the same again...
