This week threw me some curve balls. Not only have their been complications at my job, but I was sick for a couple days this week, which really cut down on my productivity as far as writing was concerned. But, I still finished a short story in time to submit it to a local anthology and managed to top off my goals for  my YouTube Channel as well.

Recently, a few friends of mine have taking their first steps into the world of independent publishing.  This, along with my constant efforts to dig through my piles of notes on one publishing topic or another, has pushed me to  publish my advice and experiences on my YouTube Channel. This will be aimed primarily toward helping aspiring writers though, so if you're waiting for my next novel, make sure to stay tuned here or subscribe to my newsletter, rather than hop over to my YouTube Channel. 

For those of you who are writers, check out more below.

Just in time for the Halloween season, folks.  Grab your popcorn, grip your blanket tight and prepare to stay up late into the night immersed in a apocalyptic action-adventure.

"When the world is overrun with ravenous infected, how do you find the time to tell someone you love them? How do you move on, when the one you love gets left behind?

Sasha's secretive mother awaits in the city of Knox, Indiana. Someone far more valuable and dangerous than the tree-hugging hiker Sasha thought her mother was. Worst of all, Chris plans to use her as a human bargaining chip, leverage to obtain the most precious commodity in the country.

A cure for the ravenous C-21 virus.

Dive into an apocalyptic adventure story of redemption, love and sacrifice."

Hey everyone, I just wanted to check in real quick and let you know what's coming. I should have another creepy short story ready by Tuesday. I'm up to my neck in zombies right now (literally, the next novel coming out is full of them). The goal is to have "The Counter Strain" ready before Halloween, and so far I'm on track with that goal as well.

​Next month I will be attending OryCon 2016 (The Oregon Science Fiction and Fantasy Convention) down in Portland, Oregon. If anyone is looking to bulk up their writing skills or just want to nerd-out with some fellow gamers and talented cosplayers, mark November 18-20th on your calendars. Great fun J

I hope you're all having a wonderful week, and I will talk to you again next Thursday.

True to the chilling holiday season of October, I've  brought another eerie short story for anyone who believes music can't change your personality, particularly if the tune is of a supernatural origin...

"​Laura's trip to the carnival carried all the wonders and intrigue a child could have asked for, except for a single tune she cannot get out of her head. This harmonica's melody carries within it one of humanity's most dire desires.

Too bad Laura's parents are vegans."

This very short story also includes a sample of S. B. Sebrick's apocalyptic novel 'The First Strain'. Click the image to learn more.

Hello again, everyone. I apologize for my absence these last few weeks. I was busily engaged (literally), and just got married a couple weeks ago!

​Now that things are settling down, I'm back to the keyboard with some new projects coming your way.  I'd like to kick off the fall season with a new spine-tingling short story, A Christmas Wish. 

"Since Cole's grandfather passed away weeks before, Cole's thoughts are constantly plagued with the fear of death. Christmas is just around the corner, so Cole asks the most magical person in his universe for help: Santa Claus. 

But when Cole opens his present, he finds a nightmare."
