It all started with a conversation with Michael Ferraiuolo (who will be narrating the audio, of course), and became a 144K novel with gangsters and Prohibition and heists, oh my! I had a lot of fun writing it (not to mention researching it), and I hope my readers will enjoy reading it.</p><p>So... please enjoy <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08GVVRV7N" target="_blank">The Venetian and the Rum Runner</a>! <br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08GVVRV7N" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1365" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKEPiQr9PwQC5-C_Xv9bDE4Wla9QnzOSYbiJm6HVeOfvm7cktnz2fEWJhjSFvFj3Bn0LtGN08f16dagKGBVLJH7ERxmpOiHA8FbyM-J04wp8tUKjLn-JuBVPnALyDRFbRhx2QP_avFwVU4/s320/Venetian_FINAL.jpg" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08GVVRV7N" target="_blank">Amazon (Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Paperback)</a></p><p>(Audio coming soon)<br /></p><p><b>Blurb:</b></p><p>New York City, 1924<br /><br /><i>Once their paths cross, their worlds will never be the same.</i><br /><br />Danny
Moore and his crew only meant to rob the hotel suites of rich guests.
He wasn’t supposed to find himself in gangster Ricky il Sacchi’s room.
And il Sacchi wasn’t supposed to wind up dead. Now Danny has the
attention of another notorious gangster. <br /> <br />Carmine Battaglia is
intrigued by the Irish thieves who would have made off with a huge score
if not for il Sacchi’s death. They’re cunning, careful, and exactly
what he needs for his rum running operation. But Danny’s already lost
two brothers to the violence between New York’s Irish and Sicilian
gangs, and he’s not about to sell his soul to Carmine. <br /> <br />With a
gangster’s blood on his hands, Danny needs protection, whether he likes
it or not. And that’s to say nothing of the generous pay, which promises
to pull him and his crew—not to mention their families—out of
destitution.<br /> <br />Working together brings Danny and Carmine to a
détente, then to something so intense neither can ignore it. Something
nearly enough to make them both forget the brutal tensions between their
countrymen.<br /> <br />But the death of Ricky il Sacchi hasn’t been forgotten. And someone is determined to make Danny bleed for it.<br /><br /><i>The

quarter to ten the second night after New Year’s, having arrived at the address
on the card he’d been given, Danny Moore found himself standing in the falling
snow outside a butcher shop.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">It was
still open despite the late hour. He supposed that wasn’t a surprise,
especially as a young couple sauntered in through the front door in attire no
one wore to visit the butcher. Clearly, then, this was not unlike the florist
shop that acted as a benign and perfectly legal front for the speakeasy Danny
frequented. Given that the man he was here to see was a powerful bootlegger, a
front seemed more likely than Carmine Battaglia moonlighting in the meat
business, particularly the business of staying open late to sell meat to
customers in their finest evening wear.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Danny
cast a wary glance around the dark and mostly deserted street, then walked inside.
The butcher shop itself was nothing remarkable. Sausages and cuts of everything
imaginable hung in the windows or were displayed in a glass case beside a large
scale and a cash register. On the wall, prices were listed, but Danny didn’t
bother to read them. He was not, after all, here to buy meat.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">The
young couple was gone, having likely been escorted through a secret door into
the speakeasy beyond. A middle-aged Italian woman watched him through
wire-rimmed spectacles.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Clearing
his throat, Danny showed her the card. “I’m here to see—” </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

got an appointment?” The question was terse.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">“I do,
yes. At ten o’clock. With, um… With Mr. Carpenter.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">She
gave a curt nod, turned away, picked up the telephone, and dialed. After a moment,
she said, “Mr. Carpenter’s ten o’clock appointment is here.” She hung up and
turned to him. “Wait right here.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Danny
waited. Another couple came through the door, the woman waving a long cigarette
holder between her fingers as she and her companion laughed at something one of
them must have said outside. She was blond, dressed in sparkling silver and
green beneath a snow-dusted overcoat, and both her hair and skirt were as short
as was fashionable these days. Her companion was in a smart suit and shined
shoes. <i>Clearly</i> here to buy meat.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">The man
murmured something to the woman behind the counter, and the woman again picked
up the telephone, this time saying something Danny didn’t hear. A moment later,
an unseen door in the back opened, and the butcher stepped out, wiping his
hands on his dingy white apron. With a sharp nod, he beckoned for the couple to
come with him, and they followed without hesitation.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Outside,
a pair of policemen strolled by. One cast a disinterested look through the
windows, put his cigarette to his lips, and kept right on walking into the
frigid night. They had to know what went on in here. It was hardly a secret
what it meant when a regular business had patrons dressed for a night out
coming in through the front door at this hour. Either the policemen didn’t care
or they didn’t bother because there were dozens of places like this nearby. More
likely, they didn’t see anything because a few crisp bills in their pockets
said there was nothing to see.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">“You
here for Mr. Carpenter?” The voice pulled Danny’s attention from the vacant
sidewalk where the police had been patrolling, and he turned to see a hulking
Italian man in a suit glaring at him from behind the counter.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Danny
cleared his throat. “I am, yes.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">A sharp
gesture summoned him into the back of the butcher shop. Danny hesitated—whether
or not it was a front for a speakeasy, this was a legitimate butcher shop, and
he wasn’t sure he liked venturing away from the windows into a place with
knives and meat hooks. Not with an Italian wise guy, and especially not after
what had happened on New Year’s Eve.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">The
Italian glared at him. “You coming?”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Well,
if he didn’t, then four of his friends would likely land in the workhouse soon.
Or worse. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">So, swallowing
his nerves, Danny followed the man into a larger room in the back. Here, the
butcher was methodically cleaving apart some creature’s hindquarters, and he
eyed Danny and the Italian with no expression on his face.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">At the
other side of the room was a door. Danny and the Italian stepped through it,
and Danny jumped when it banged shut behind him, sealing them into a narrow,
dark stairway that was as cold as the January night outside. They walked
silently down the stairs, and Danny tried not to liken this to descending into
the pits of hell for a meeting with the Devil himself.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">When
they reached the bottom, the Italian faced him and held up a canvas bag.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">“Put
this on,” he ordered.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">“Put
it…” Danny eyed the bag, then the wise guy. “Why?”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">The man’s
eyes narrowed. “You want to meet Mr. Carpenter or not?”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Well,
no, now that he’d asked, but Danny didn’t have a lot of choice here. And he
supposed now that he’d been into the tunnel behind the butcher shop, there was
no turning back. He’d already seen too much. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Muttering
a few choice words in Irish, Danny pulled the bag over his own head, and he
tried not to let his mind linger on what exactly he was smelling. Something
sour and decayed. Thinking any deeper than that, he’d probably throw up inside
the bag. In fact, maybe that was what—</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">“This
way.” The Italian took his arm, and what could Danny do but follow him?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">They
walked for what felt like miles. Maybe that was just his nerves, or maybe time
seemed to be crawling by because of the horrid stench so close to his face. All
he knew was he’d long since lost track of the turns and switchbacks, and that
with every set of stairs—even those going up—he was sure he was getting closer
to literal hell.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Finally,
he was ordered to halt. Something squeaked, and he thought he heard a door
open, but he wasn’t told to move, so he stood there stupidly and waited for
something to happen.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">The
Italian’s gruff voice made him jump: “Your ten o’clock is here, boss.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">The
response came in a smoother voice that made Danny’s already racing heart beat
faster: “Bring him in.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Danny
was shoved unceremoniously forward, and he just managed to keep himself from
falling. When he’d righted himself, the bag was yanked off his head.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">He
blinked a few times—the room was dimly lit by a few bare bulbs strung around
where crown molding would have been in a classier place, but it was still
bright for a man who’d been in darkness for the last… the last however long
he’d been hooded.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">A heavy
metal door slammed shut behind him, and a lock clanged into place. It sounded
like the kind of door they used for bank vaults, and that didn’t settle Danny’s
nerves at all. There was a reason he and his crew had never bothered trying to
rob banks.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">As his
eyes adjusted, he shivered and took in his surroundings. Aside from being cold,
the room was rough, its floor made of wood but its walls out of ragged concrete.
A few pipes went across the ceiling and along one wall, but otherwise it looked
like an office—a desk with a couple of chairs and a telephone. Several ledgers
and pens. It wasn’t even as big as the modest parlor in Danny’s Broome Street
tenement apartment, and the low ceiling and dim light made it feel even more cramped
and tight.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Or
perhaps that was because of the locked door and the man gazing back at him from
behind the broad desk.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">He was
Italian in the usual expensive suit, and he was plainly a gangster. As easy to
recognize as Ricky il Sacchi. The way he carried himself, even while sitting
down. The way he looked at Danny like he owned everything in this room <i>including</i>
him. The pinstriped slate gray suit and the fedora on the desk. And who else
but gangsters held meetings in dark basements with men summoned by threats? He
couldn’t have been anyone <i>other</i> than a gangster, and Danny suspected
this “Mr. Carpenter” was, in fact, Carmine Battaglia. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">“What’s
your name, kid?”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">“It
ain’t ‘kid,’” Danny growled, hoping his nerves didn’t betray him.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">A dark
eyebrow arched. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Danny
gulped. “Daniel. My name is Daniel Moore.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">To his
surprise the Italian got up and came around the desk. He was slightly shorter
than Danny—an inch at most—and he looked Danny right in the eye as he extended
a hand. “Carmine Battaglia.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Unsure
what else to do, Danny shook Battaglia’s hand.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">So this
was him. Carmine Battaglia. The gangster who’d demanded Danny’s presence and
threatened to send four of his friends to the workhouse if he didn’t show.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">And
maybe if Danny hadn’t been so uneasy with this whole situation, he’d have spent
a little more time focusing on those full lips and near-black eyes. Or the way
the bare electric bulbs cast harsh shadows on sharp, olive-skinned features.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"><i>He’s
one of them, </i>Danny fiercely reminded himself. <i>Stop staring and find a
way out of here.</i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">“Well?
You wanted to see me.” Danny spread his arms. “I’m here.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">“Yes,
you are.” Battaglia leaned casually against his desk, head tilted his head as
he studied Danny intently. “I understand you’re in charge of a group of thieves
who broke into some suites at the Plaza Hotel on New Year’s Eve.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Danny
swallowed, not sure how to proceed.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">An odd
smile formed on Battaglia’s lips. “I’m not the police, Daniel. I’m—”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">“You’re
a gangster.” The words came out with more venom than perhaps was wise. “Just
tell me what you want so you won’t send my friends to the workhouse.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Battaglia
shook his head, chuckling softly. “I’m not interested in sending you or your
friends to the workhouse.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

you said… If I didn’t come…”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

you did come.” Battaglia shrugged. “You held up your end of the deal, and now
I’ll hold up mine.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

wasn’t that simple. It couldn’t be. Nothing ever was with gangsters involved.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

what is it you want?”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

want is to put you and your crew to work.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

blinked. “I beg your pardon?”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

I heard that part.” Danny stared at him in disbelief. “You want us to come work
for you. For gangsters. For <i>Sicilian</i> gangsters.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

inclined his head. “You would hardly be the first Irishmen on my payroll.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;">Setting
his jaw, Danny glared at him. “Your kind put two of my brothers in the ground.
I’d sooner work at Tammany Hall than with the likes of you.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

expression hardened just slightly, but his voice stayed calm. “And you don’t
think plenty of my kind are in the ground thanks to Irishmen?”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

any luck, they’re in hell.”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

gangster’s eyebrow rose slowly. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

heart went wild. This was dangerous. So dangerous. He may as well have spat in
the man’s face and cursed his mother. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

not the wisest thing to do when he was in a locked underground office with a powerful
gangster and not the faintest clue how to get back to street level.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: 10.0pt; mso-margin-top-alt: 0in;"> </p>

didn’t take it back.</p><p><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

Through video tutorials and good old trial and error, I've managed to create a few pieces that I'm not ashamed to hang on my wall.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I won't be selling art at the farmer's market or making my own tutorial videos any time soon, but I'm happy with the results, and I'm optimistic that I'll get better, if nothing else because of sheer stubbornness.<br />
<br />
Throughout this little adventure, I've found my thought process very familiar. Specifically, I think a lot of things that I thought during my early days as a writer:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>What if I mess this up?</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>What if I do all this work, and it's trash?</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>What if everyone hates it?</i></div>
<br />
I've been writing professionally for over a decade, so I've conditioned myself to respond to those doubt gremlins the same way every time:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>So the hell what?</i></div>
<br />
Because I <i>have </i>messed up stories. Plenty of them. Even now, almost 200 books into my career, my editors still have their work cut out for them because I can still torpedo a perfectly good story. But I write them anyway because I know that I have editors who will help me course correct, and I know I <i>can </i>course correct. Knowing I have people who can help and that I am capable of fixing problems, I'm willing to take bigger risks and write more intimidating books than I might have when I was first starting out.<br />
<br />
Sometimes it's just a matter of making a few tweaks here and there. A character's lack of motivation can sometimes be solved by a handful of throwaway lines sprinkled throughout.<br />
<br />
Sometimes it's the literary equivalent of scraping off the paint, priming over the canvas, and starting over from scratch. I have rewritten multiple books almost from the ground up during the editing process. Almost 90% of <i>The Tide of War</i> was scrapped and rewritten after my editor's first round. <i>A Chip in His Shoulder</i> was eviscerated, and barely recognizable from the original once it went through edits. <i>With the Band</i> and <i>Not Safe For Work</i> were both written twice from start to finish before I got it right on the third drafts, and even then they still went through a ton of editing before they were fit for human consumption. <br />
<br />
Which is to say, it's 100% okay to mess up your story, because you can always fix it.<br />
<br />
One more time for the people in the back:<br />
<br />
<i>It's 100% okay to mess up your story, because you can always fix it</i>.<br />
<br />
You can either fix it as is, or rewrite it and make it better, but you don't lose the right to that story just because it didn't come out perfectly on the first go around.<br />
<br />
Just like right now, when I paint a landscape and then realize it can't be salvaged, all isn't lost. I now know a few things that <i>don't</i> work, and during the second attempt, I can practice and refine the things that <i>did</i> work. The second version won't be identical to the first, but it'll be closer to what I wanted the first to be. If I mess up the second time, then the third version will get me closer. And sometimes, I'll realize some element needs to be dramatically different. Not because I lack the skill level to paint a mountain or because my evergreen trees need work, but because the mountain borked the composition or the trees were better off being deciduous. Trial and error, all the way -- both because the skill level improves with practice, and because some elements work and some don't. Maybe the first painting was better suited to line a bird cage, but the effort wasn't wasted because that version was a step toward the improved final painting.<br />
<br />
Books are much the same way.<br />
<br />
And sometimes you might finish the story and realize that particular story isn't worth making into something readable. That's okay!I wrote my very first book three times from top to bottom, with each manuscript clocking in around 130,000 words. Which book is it? One that will never see the light of day.<br />
<br />
Was that a waste of time and effort? Not at all. Because I learned to write with that book. It was a lot of trial and a <i>whole </i>lot of error, and in the end, I realized that at its core, the story wasn't as good as I wanted it to be. Maybe someday I'll revisit it and write it with the knowledge and skills I have now, but I'm happy to let it be, and I don't think it was a waste because I learned so much from it.<br />
<br />
It was like trying and failing to create the same painting a dozen times in a row. Maybe I never got the cool painting I imagined, but I did learn a ton about brush techniques, shading, lighting, perspective, tone, value, mixing paints. That painting never came to fruition, but everything that went into it and the skills I got out of it will benefit every painting that comes after.<br />
<br />
All of this is to say that if you're a writer -- or a painter, or a sculptor, or what have you -- don't let the fear of screwing up keep you from taking risks.<br />
<br />
Put the words on the screen.<br />
<br />
Put the paint on the canvas.<br />
<br />
Screw it up. Ruin it. Make a mess.<br />
<br />
Create something that you will never put on Amazon or Instagram.<br />
<br />
It's that old adage that goes around during NaNoWriMo: Give yourself permission to write crap.<br />
<br />
It doesn't mean <i>deliberately </i>produce garbage or don't concern yourself with quality.<br />
<br />
It means give yourself permission to do scary things that you may not <i>yet </i>possess the skills to execute.<br />
<br />
It means give yourself permission to aim high and -- this is the important part -- fail without <i>being </i>a failure.<br />
<br />
If you do fail, scrape off the paint or cross out the words and try again. You'll get there!<br />
<br />
And when you give yourself permission to mess up and let go of the fear that you won't get it right the first time, you might surprise yourself sometimes.<br />
<br />
Not long ago, I wanted to try one of Bob Ross's techniques for painting the Northern Lights. It looked easy on the tutorial, but I figured it was going to be hard in practice. Before I'd even primed the canvas, I made peace with the fact that this could turn out to be garbage. If I did, well, I'd just prime over the top and try again, and eventually I'd get it right. And I used a small canvas panel so at least I wouldn't be wasting one of the bigger, more expensive canvases.<br />
<br />
This is the result:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnPHn6JXDDde1Af7TbWblAofCJoeqaO5eeQTQRdrnqDiQQAkAzgTas7p8UQdQAKuFkqIncz6c4h3omoG5cTvbh0nr-fDWlyVkQs-kRQvj64GiQkUmyi9VaA6XDLTHJbqU7OVquSHtE4v67/s1600/painting1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnPHn6JXDDde1Af7TbWblAofCJoeqaO5eeQTQRdrnqDiQQAkAzgTas7p8UQdQAKuFkqIncz6c4h3omoG5cTvbh0nr-fDWlyVkQs-kRQvj64GiQkUmyi9VaA6XDLTHJbqU7OVquSHtE4v67/s320/painting1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Is it perfect? No. But considering it was something I'd never tried before, I was pleasantly surprised. After a little more practice, I used a bigger canvas, and now this is hanging on my living room wall:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggOuPVqmRsIk4JszKr51N7TOFonskKpP9jdzvz5pz4b4Wllq3B-uoRDdXItXvCXfVJkZF7Q_SqQgogn5xH4BTZRKx_kSKMOHLZihi7ejAVyUR8O16UNe_CK0fSsyTVzmcfEKDBiYZDm7qk/s1600/painting2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1440" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggOuPVqmRsIk4JszKr51N7TOFonskKpP9jdzvz5pz4b4Wllq3B-uoRDdXItXvCXfVJkZF7Q_SqQgogn5xH4BTZRKx_kSKMOHLZihi7ejAVyUR8O16UNe_CK0fSsyTVzmcfEKDBiYZDm7qk/s320/painting2.jpg" width="320" /> </a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Turned out the Northern Lights are pretty easy. A few other things have proven to be a lot harder. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Painting mountains is apparently going to be like writing car chase scenes for me: haaaaard. Case in point, this little number, where I managed to achieve the basic shape of mountains, only to botch them during an attempt at adding snow. And <i>then </i>after scraping off the excess paint so I could try again, I wiped off the palette knife with a paper towel, only to drop the paper towel wet-paint-side down onto the canvas, and... well:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV7-2BMJTbvKDjqm4OTluMbI2mGPcVCbtkItJ0M5UZXKn8YneYATNU1bEi5lAAAQjCXEnm3fFPQgyVj2SKs7FPoIrjepdMU4dqYlO26DHq9Ajm0GqjOPen7KThau1ccOXuDe-7AKNcWhtD/s1600/mtns.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV7-2BMJTbvKDjqm4OTluMbI2mGPcVCbtkItJ0M5UZXKn8YneYATNU1bEi5lAAAQjCXEnm3fFPQgyVj2SKs7FPoIrjepdMU4dqYlO26DHq9Ajm0GqjOPen7KThau1ccOXuDe-7AKNcWhtD/s320/mtns.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So this canvas is going to get reprimed, and I'm going to again attempt to paint mountains with snow on them, and sooner or later, they will look like mountains with snow on them. This painting wasn't a waste, it was practice, and practice happens when you stop being afraid of getting it wrong.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
With any kind of art: some things are surprisingly easy if you can get past the fear of messing up. Other things are hard, but again, if you get past that fear, you can practice enough to get them right.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So to all the aspiring writers and artists out there, go forth and screw up. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Fear of failure is a much greater obstacle than failure itself, and if you can shake off that fear, then you can make messes that eventually give you the skills to make art, and you can surprise yourself by how easy some things are once you stop second-guessing your abilities. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And if you're looking at other writers and artists, and you're wondering why they never mess up while you keep making mistakes, remember that as some meme or another once pointed out, you shouldn't compare your uncut footage to someone else's final shot. Just because you don't see the mistakes doesn't mean they aren't happening.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This is actually why I love voice actors and musicians who post blooper reels, authors who tweet about their "typo of the day," and artists who show pictures of their mistakes. It's a reminder that no one is effortlessly producing flawless art, and that mistakes and corrections are part of every artists' process.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
One of my favorite Instagram accounts is <a href="https://www.instagram.com/minkstudiosllc/">@minkstudiosllc</a>, where equine sculptor Sarah Minkiewicz-Breunig documents her sculptures in progress. She frequently posts pictures where she made a mistake, followed by detailed descriptions and close-up photos of how she fixed it so other sculptors can learn how to spot and repair similar problems.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/Ferrajunkies/">Ferrajunkies Facebook group</a>, Michael Ferraiuolo occasionally posts blooper reels from his audiobooks, which are both hilariously funny and a great reminder that even a seasoned voice actor is going to stumble over a word or phrase now and then.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Sarah's finished sculptures and Michael's finished audiobooks are spectacular. To look at or listen to their work, you'd never guess either of them knew what a mistake was because their work is <i>that</i> good. But they both post evidence to the contrary, which should be a reminder to the aspiring artist to keep that in mind that the people who've been at it longer than you are still making mistakes, even if you don't see them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Go forth and create.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Make mistakes so you can make art.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Aim high while giving yourself permission to fail without being a failure.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>You've got this, yo.</i> </div>

<br />
<b>In particular:</b><br />
<ul>
<li>The audiobook of <b>Rebound</b></li>
<li>The <b>Tucker Springs</b> series</li>
<li>The <b>Wrench Wars</b> series</li>
<li><b>Rules of Engagement</b> and <b>Rain</b></li>
</ul>
<b>Rebound: </b>If you purchased the audiobook and experienced audio issues, the problem is being addressed and a new edition will be available soon. I don't have an ETA for it yet, but keep an eye on <a href="https://twitter.com/GallagherWitt">Twitter</a> and my <a href="http://www.gallagherwitt.com/">website</a> for updates.<br />
<br />
<b>My Dreamspinner titles:</b><br />
<br />
At my request, Dreamspinner has reverted my rights. Some books have been released, and others are coming soon.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XQJ3FCY">Last Mechanic Standing</a> and <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XQK1F6Q">Wrenches, Regrets, & Reality Checks</a>, my Wrench Wars books, have been re-released. <br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XH1K9BG">Rules of Engagement</a> has been extensively revised, including a newly extended ending, and has been re-released. The audiobook will remain as is for the time being. <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Y2N8SRP">Rain</a> has also been re-released, and is available in print for the first time! (or, well, it will be - as I post this, it's still processing on Amazon, but should be up soon)<br />
<br />
My books in the Tucker Springs series have reverted to me, and they're being reformatted, etc. <b>Where Nerves End</b>, <b>Covet Thy Neighbor</b>, and <b>After the Fall</b> will be available soon. It's Complicated will remain with Dreamspinner until November. If you pre-ordered <b>It's Complicated</b> from Amazon, you will still receive your book as scheduled.<br />
<br />
These changes only affect my books in the Wrench Wars and Tucker Springs series. The other authors' books will remain unchanged.Lori W.http://www.blogger.com/profile/00977774459484130567noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1541335208145531499.post-56627371696831978192019-03-12T09:00:00.001-05:002019-03-12T09:00:34.865-05:00Narrator Interview + Giveaway!Today I have three awesome audiobook narrators who've <strike>been let out of the basement</strike> agreed to join me for an interview about, well, being audiobook narrators.<br />

following for his work in fiction, specifically in the romance genre. His
performances in two of Amy Lane's books, Beneath the Stain and Christmas
Kitsch, made him the recipient of Sinfully M/M Book Review's Narrator of the
Year - 2015. When he's not in the booth, Nick enjoys spending time with his
wife, Jessica, and kids, (aka their beagle Frank and cat Stella), drumming
around town, exploring rural back roads with his wife on their motorcycle, or
being enthralled in a tabletop role playing game with his friends.</div>

<span style="color: #38761d;"><b>Nick:</b> Most of my job I
feel that way - it is an absolute pleasure to bring works of fiction to life
with tone, emotion, and pacing. Even the parts that sometimes feel tedious,
(mostly the backend work of editing, cleaning out loud “sss” sounds, pops,
tongue and lip smacks, etc), are more engaging than any job I’ve had before
this. And obviously, going to “work” (the next room over from my bedroom) often
times in my pajamas is just, the best. </span><br />

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: #38761d;"><b>Nick</b>: Tough question! I
think part of the fun of being a narrator is getting to dive into a new project
every week - new characters, new setting, new struggles, new everything! I go
from steampunk Batman one week to sailors struggling with PTSD the next,
followed up by Omega werewolves sorting out the struggles of pregnancy! To pin
down a particular thing to narrate over and over again, besides broadly
speaking romance, would be a bit of a challenge for me. So I’ll just say Lori’s
books and be done with it. Next question! :P<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><br />

<b>4. Are there any accents,

wind up doing two similar but distinct accents in a given book.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Plantations South and Texan, Irish and Scottish,
Australian and South African… things that have a lot of markers that are
similar, but are distinct.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I’ve run into

out and then I have to stop and mentally reset.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #38761d;"><b>Nick</b>: <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s always a pleasure to voice something fun
or over the top - some of my favorites are southern drawls, evil villains, and
the flamboyant. For some reason every single word narrated in those types of
voices are like the equivalent of biting into a really juicy apple - so
delicious!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">Certainly when a voice
calls for gruffness or a thick accent, it can become taxing after a couple hours
and requires more breaks. I can only be a big burly German man for so long!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">I have voiced so many
different characters of just about every imaginable background, ethnicity, and
personality, that it’s hard to think of one I’ve missed out on in this moment.
Perhaps more aliens in sci-fi? The ones I’ve voiced have been a lot of fun
because I intentionally parced them to sound “off”.</span></div>

narrate more “High Fantasy” stories. That would be fun to dig into. I would
also love to work with a “Cosmic Horror” story…something Lovecraftian. As for
accents… Welsh is always right on the tip of my tongue but never quite right. </span> </span></span></span></div>

<b>5. How do you decide
voices/accents for secondary characters who aren’t given much description? How

<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: #38761d;"><b>Nick</b>: It depends on how
often they appear, primarily. The more scenes they appear in, the more
consideration I’ll give their voices. For example, I won’t spend much time on
‘random waiter who has a single line of dialogue never to be heard from again’,
but a family member related to one of the protagonists who shows up a handful
of times will get a similar treatment as the protagonist themselves. As far as
consistency goes, with any character that appears in more than one scene, we’ll
record a single line of dialogue in their voice prior to production to refer
back to at any time. This ensures consistency throughout, especially with
projects within a series. </span><br />

<span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="color: purple;"><b>Michael</b>: <span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">Incidental characters
are always fun because if I know they only appear once I can either make them
really stand out with a character voice or completely fade into the background
if I’m running short of unique sounds. It also depends on their dialogue and
what the scene calls for. I keep a file full of short mp3s of each character’s
voice to call back to if it’s been a few dozen chapters since they’ve appeared.</span> </span></span></span></div>

vampire who’s experiencing being high for the first time? That one was tough
but widely enjoyable at the same time, because I had to find the line between
pacing the cadence of my lines at a comfortable speed and tone for the

stoned off my ass. <span style="color: black;"><i>[L.A.: for the record, y'all, <a href="https://www.audible.com/pd/Blood-from-a-Stoner-Audiobook/B07D7GFYV3">he nailed it</a>.]</i></span></span><br />

of characters is both a challenge and a pleasure. You strive not to go over the

Generally in a lot of funny moments, one or more characters don’t perceive it
as funny… so it’s easy to connect with that character’s emotions and not
necessarily FEEL it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Likewise I don’t get
embarrassed during sex scenes, because the characters are completely invested

<span style="color: #38761d;"><b>Nick</b>: All the time!
Generally speaking, whatever emotions the characters I’ve narrating are feeling
in the moment, I’m doing my best to channel as well. If a character is upset
and tearing up, it’s safe to assume I’m doing the same when delivering the
dialogue. If a character is particularly happy and expressing their joy, I’m
right there with them with a smile on my face.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">There definitely have been
moments when a scene gets too silly or too heavy where I’ll have to take a

interested in the performing arts growing up. While I spent more time in the
music wing than the theater wing in school, I always jumped at the chance
whenever I could to be a part of any given production. In more recent years,
I’m very fond of tabletop RPG’s, where one creates a character and spends a few
hours a week embodying someone else. Or as the game master of said RPG’s, I get
the chance to play multiple characters in any given session and give them
different voices, tone, accents, etc. Never did I imagine that those social
occasions would provide experience for voicing the characters I narrate now, so
it’d be apt to call it a “happy accident”. </span><br />

<b>9. How did you get started
narrating LGBT romance? What was the most surprising thing about the genre?</b><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<b><span style="color: #38761d;"><b><b><span style="color: blue;">Greg:</span></b></b></span></b><span style="color: blue;"><b> </b>One of my first books was
“Dirty Kiss” by Rhys Ford, which I discovered was classified as an LGBT
romance, but when reading it I went ‘… this… this is a PI Noir mystery… I mean,
there’s some romance in it, and some sex… but…’<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><span style="color: blue;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: blue;">Which is when I discovered
2 things I found surprising about the genre.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>One, and I know this is common for people who stumble into the genre… I
was surprised that so much of the male/male fiction was written by and read by
heterosexual women.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Two, I was surprised
that the genre was essentially a publishing-created dumping ground for any
story that even tangentially involved two people in any form of non-heteronormative
relationship.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">

SUCH bullshit.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<span style="color: blue;">
</span><div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: blue;">“So your book is about the
disinherited daughter of a space-shipping magnate, who finds herself exiled to
the far ends of the galaxy, turns pirate, and then discovers that a race of
creatures from another nearby dimension are attempting to set the races of the
galaxy against each other, stops an interstellar war, and in the process saves
the princess of one of the core planets whom she ultimately marries?</span></div>

<span style="color: blue;">…. Oh, that’s lesbian
romance.”</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: #38761d;"><b>Nick</b>: LGBT romance was where
I got started in narration. My first several titles were in that genre, and
while I do narrate other genres, MM romance is my primary focus. I think the
most surprising thing about it that I’ve discovered since starting is how much
of a wide variety there is to it - the romance genre is often times paired with
suspense, action, adventure, sci-fi, comedy, thrillers, and it’s fantastic! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="color: purple;"><b>Michael</b>: <span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">I was approached by a
publisher to narrate an LGBT romance. I didn’t know much about the genre at the
time, but my feeling was that “love is love and that’s good enough for me”. I
can’t say that I was particularly surprised by the genre. In my opinion, there
are more similarities than<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>differences
between an LGBT romance story and a heterosexual romance story. The troubles
two people go through while trying to express their love and navigate their
relationship are largely universal…and to me, that’s a very encouraging
thought.</span> </span></span></span></div>

there is the occasional obnoxious response (like my Aunt greeting me once with
‘hey, it’s the porn reader!’) or some sidling away by the occasional

reactions… if I’m ever faced with an aggressive one, I hope I will be able to

fiction, especially by and about people who deserve to have the same freedom to
exist as anyone else.</span></span></div>

I narrate “porn” or “smut”. It kind of befuddles me since I rarely hear M/F
romance referred to in the same way, but such is life I guess. My reaction to
it is typically to treat it as naivete and to educate, as I don’t think the
people in my life who refer to it as such mean any harm from it.</span><br />

<b>12. Tell us about the kind of
communication you have (and prefer) with your authors. Do most of your

<span style="color: #38761d;"><b><b><span style="color: blue;">Greg:</span></b></b></span><span style="color: blue;"><b> </b>I will preface this by
saying that I cannot assure all authors that all narrators will react the same

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: blue;">I encourage authors to ask
questions at any time, and always to feel free to approach me. I will be
completely transparent about whether I’ve got time to tackle a project, and if
I feel that it’s a good fit for me. Also, I know my prices aren’t in everyone’s

</span><div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: blue;">I like to know things
about your book, and you are always welcome to give me any information you
have… tho some of it may not be that useful to me, and I may just skim past
that bit. (A lot of times it’s useful for authors to know things like a
character’s childhood pet, favorite food, eye color… but they don’t do a huge
amount for me in creating a voice generally speaking.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Feel free to share, I may just not use that
bit)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I ESPECIALLY like notes about
characters if you know they are going somewhere.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You introduced that Cop for a paragraph in
chapter 23, and we only know her name is Maria… but she’s going to be the main
character of book 3, and her last name is O’Malley, and she’s from a Boston
Irish family, and has a touch of a Brogue? It’s REALLY good to know that before
I arbitrarily make her sound Hispanic.</span></div>

<span style="color: blue;">
</span><div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: blue;">We need to have the
communications that are required so that we both feel trust that the project is
going to be handled professionally. Authors need to know that the narrator is
budgeting time, will deliver on a deadline (or communicate promptly if anything
shifts), will take the work seriously and respect the effort involved, and will
behave professionally during, and after the production as well. Narrators need
to know that the author will be available for communication and questions, will
accept the hand-over of artistic control that comes with letting someone read
your work, will treat the narrator as a partner in the process, and will be
able to meet financial obligations.</span></div>
<span style="color: blue;">
</span><div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: blue;">
</span><div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: blue;">Two things I will say as
general advice for authors:</span></div>
<span style="color: blue;">
</span><div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: blue;">
</span><div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: blue;">1)<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Be sure that the editing you are paying for includes good
copyediting.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I think the primary
weakness I see in the indie and micropub world is that the editing process has
not done the final pass and checked basic copyediting. Grammar errors, missing
words, consistency issues, and misuse of words both make your work read as less
professional, and make it harder to narrate because those moments break the
flow. We have to stop and decide how to handle that mistake.</span></div>
<span style="color: blue;">
</span><div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: blue;">
</span><div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: blue;">2)<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Trust that you’ve written what you want read. Especially new
authors to audio are concerned that they need to line-direct the process and
explain to the narrator what they think the character should sound like. It
probably WON’T sound just like it did in your head, and that is not only ok,
it’s a good thing. You’ve written the stage direction into your book, you’ve
written the characters. If you’ve also given us notes on characters, so much
the better. Just as readers will hear it their own way, so narrators will say
it theirs. It’s a collaboration, and it’s a beautiful thing.</span></div>

I want it to be as close to your vision as possible. The more notes you have,

<ol>
<li>Three commenters will each win Audible codes for two (2) of my audiobooks. </li>
<li>To enter, leave a comment with the title of your choice (<a href="http://www.gallagherwitt.com/l.a.-witt-s-audiobooks.html">any two audiobooks off my backlist</a>) and a good email address (to avoid spam, I recommend formatting your email like "gallagherwitt at gmail dot com", as I've done with the narrators' emails above, but this isn't required).</li>
<li>If you're already commenting on the interview, that's fine - just include your preferred title and email address, and you're good to go.</li>
<li>Entries close at midnight Eastern Time on March 18th, and three winners will be randomly selected on March 19th. </li>
<li>Prizes will be issued via Audible download codes. I do have codes that are valid in the UK, so just make sure you let me know you need one.</li>

<br />
Moving day is coming up fast, and that means one thing: downsizing. Or at least trying to shed a few pounds off the household goods shipment.<br />
<br />
As an author, this means encountering the bizarre phenomenon of books being obscenely heavy, especially in large quantities. And since I try to keep a pretty good stock of all of my books in order to have them available for contest giveaways, conference sales, etc., I have... large quantities.<br />
<br />
So, in an effort to Jenny Craig my book weight, I'm donating a couple of boxes, but I'm also going to give a bunch away to my readers. This is where you come in.<br />
<br />
Here's how it works: <br />
<ol>
<li>Each reader may receive <b><i>up to</i></b>:</li>
<ol>
<li>4 titles</li>
<li><b>or </b>2 titles & 1 bundle</li>
<li><b>or </b>the Wilde's bundle.</li>
</ol>
<li>All books will be signed. </li>
<li>The giveaway is limited to the titles and quantities listed below, and books are available on a first come first served basis.</li>
<ol>
<li><b>That being said</b>, I know that time zones, connectivity, and free time are things, and it's entirely possible that by the time someone reads this, their preferred titles will be snatched up. If there is a title you really really <i>really </i>want that is already claimed, shoot me an <a href="mailto:gallagherwitt@gmail.com">email</a>. The quantities listed below don't necessarily reflect the total number of copies in my possession, and we may be able to work something out.</li>
</ol>
<li>Some books may come with older covers that are no longer available. If you have a strong preference for a specific cover, please mention this in your comment (alternate covers may not be available). </li>
<li>In order to receive books, leave a comment below containing:</li>
<ol>
<li>Your name (or at least a nickname)</li>
<li>An email address</li>
<li>Your preferred title(s)</li>
<li>(optional) preferred cover if a book has been released with multiple covers </li>
<li>(optional) alternate title(s) in case your preferred titles are taken.</li>
</ol>
<li>If you are unable or unwilling to use comments on Blogger, please <a href="mailto:gallagherwitt@gmail.com">email me</a> with the information above. </li>
<ol>
<li>First come first served still applies depending on the timestamps on emails or comments. Emails will not receive priority over comments or vice versa.</li>
</ol>
<li>Claimed titles will be marked as quickly as reasonably possible, but they will not be real-time updates. Some books showing available may have been claimed. </li>
<li>When the giveaway ends, I will contact you via email for a shipping address. </li>
<li>P.O. boxes are fine. All books will be sent in early January via US media mail.</li>
<li>Giveaway is not limited to readers in the United States. </li>
</ol>
<b>Oh, and 5 randomly selected winners will receive a bonus book! </b><br />
<br />

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Detective Damian Arruda thought his partner was just too distraught to
accept his wife’s murder as a random act of violence. Then the
devastated widower got too close to the truth, and now Damian is
grieving his best friend. As his conscience threatens to eat him alive,
he’ll stop at nothing to find the killer.<br /><br />Special Agent Melissa
Walker’s partner met a violent end as well, and his death is almost
certainly connected. When she joins forces with Damian, the
investigation takes them into the vile underbelly of the Internet: the
incel community and its toxic forums full of misogynists who consider
themselves “involuntarily celibate” and feed off each other’s vitriol
and hatred. <br /><br />As the pieces come together, there’s no denying the
three deaths and the poisonous, cultlike community are part of a wave of
murders, grisly assaults, and bombings. Damian and Melissa are running
out of time to take the killers down before more innocent people fall
victim—and before someone decides that one victim at a time isn’t
enough.<br /><br />This novel is approximately 125,000 words.</blockquote>

It might even be premature to post it now. I don't know. And maybe it's a little bit of oversharing, but I feel like it's better to overshare in this case than to cryptically vagueblog and make things sound worse than they are. So here it is.<br />
<br />
I want to say upfront that I'm not burned out this time, and I'm not giving up writing. Y'all aren't
getting rid of me that easily. I've
promised some sequels in recent months, and those are still coming
(including the two sequels to If <i>The Seas Catch Fire</i>, the F/F Anchor Point spinoff, and the sequel to <i>The Master Will Appear</i>, plus Cari Z and I are writing a sequel to <i>Double or Nothing</i>). There are several books in the finished-but-revising stage, and I <i>am</i> still writing.<br />
<br />
Writing is still happening. I just foresee it slowing down a little. Maybe a lot.<br />
<br />
To cut right to the chase, some medical issues are interfering with... well, basically everything in my life, but relevant to this blog post, my ability to read and write. If you're curious, the condition is <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idiopathic_intracranial_hypertension">Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension</a>, aka Pseudotumor cerebri. Basically too much cerebrospinal fluid. It's not currently being treated because I'm technically still in a bit of a diagnostic holding pattern because seeing specialists while stationed overseas means coordinating with the military, off-base civilian facilities, and translators. And let me tell you, you haven't <i>lived </i>until you've had to have a conversation with a neurologist through a translator.<br />
<br />
Anyway. They've ruled out the life-threatening stuff (like a not-so-pseudo tumor), which is a good thing. The less good thing is that as a result of all this floaty brain nonsense, I've been dealing with steadily worsening vision problems, near-constant headaches, and occasionally blacking out for no earthly reason. Good days mean my eyes getting really tired really fast, and annoying but bearable headaches. Bad days mean not <i>quite </i>having a migraine, but feeling like I will at any moment. <br />
<br />
So... you can imagine what this does to my ability to write. Reading for pleasure went out the window months ago (audiobooks are a lifesaver!!), and whether I like it or not, it's time to admit that writing is becoming a struggle. No matter how much I stubbornly insist it's not the case, my output is taking a hit. In fact, it <i>needs </i>to take a hit so I don't make myself extra miserable. <br />
<br />
It may also start affecting my ability to attend conferences. RT and Euro Pride were the first cons I've attended since this weirdness started, and I could definitely feel a difference. They were a struggle in ways cons haven't been for me in the past. I'm still planning to attend the UK Meet and GRL, but after that, I'll have to play it by ear and see how I feel.<br />
<br />
Hopefully I'll lock down a treatment plan soon (or at the very least once I'm stateside in 2019). Hopefully something will actually <i>help</i>. Hopefully this blog post is entirely moot and I get back to my normal life and my normal writing before anyone even notices I slowed down (and before the plot bunnies start chowing down on my skull).<br />
<br />
But that's where it stands right now. I don't know if it will continue to get worse, or how much worse it'll get. I don't know if there will be drug side effects to contend with. Right now, today, all I know is that I finally need to admit to myself that I'm going to have to cut myself some slack when it comes to my writing and editing output, as well as my conference attendance. Again, I'm not stopping. Just slowing down. I'm working on using dictation software, but there's a learning curve there, so it's not quite happening yet.<br />
<br />
So we'll see how things go. One day at a time, onward and upward. If you're waiting on something from me -- whether it's an email, a manuscript, or a release -- please be patient. I'm going a bit slower than usual, but I'm working on it! :) Lori W.http://www.blogger.com/profile/00977774459484130567noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1541335208145531499.post-79531817578182842782018-01-23T13:10:00.000-06:002018-01-23T13:10:03.621-06:00For a limited time, these books are OUT of Kindle Unlimited!Most of my self-published books are available on Kindle Unlimited, which means they have to be exclusive to Amazon.

Rest assured I <i>have </i>been writing words in places other than my blog, though. Specifically Word documents that eventually turn into books. So there's that. But blogging? Yeah, I suck.<br />
<br />
Anyway. October starts in about 55 minutes, which means GayRomLit is like <i>tomorrow</i>. Okay, it's three weeks away, but it feels like it's tomorrow because <i>Holy Ned you guys, it's almost time for GRL!!!</i><br />
<br />
So, sort-of-on-the-eve-ofGRL, here's what's happening in the GallagherWitt realms:<br />
<br />
<b>GayRomLit</b><br />
<br />
I'm not listed as an author, but I will be there as a sponsor. You'll most likely find me in the sales room (I'm bringing loads of paperbacks that I don't want to take home!) or in the bar. If we've never met, don't hesitate to come up and say hello! I don't bite, and I'll sign basically anything you put in front of me. Also, don't miss the narrators' reading on....whenever that ends up being. There are some amazing narrators in the lineup, and someone might be reading from one of my not-yet-released books!<br />
<br />
<b>New Releases</b><br />
<br />
I have two new releases in October! On the 3rd, the third and final Skin Deep, Inc, book, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Cover-Up-Skin-Deep-Novel-ebook/dp/B0746MG2G1"><i>Cover Up</i></a>. On the 18th, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075VR98J8"><i>Blood From a Stoner</i></a>.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
So basically a short paranormal novella with weed involved, and a military/tattooist romance with lots of angst. They're pretty different from each other, but they're both quite smutty!<br />
<br />
<b>Upcoming</b><br />
<br />
In December, <a href="http://riptidepublishing.com/titles/new-hand"><i>New Hand</i></a> will mark the end of the <a href="http://riptidepublishing.com/titles/universe/bluewater-bay">Bluewater Bay series</a>. It's always said to say goodbye to a series, but it's time, and hopefully Garrett and Jesse will bring it to a worthy close.<br />
<br />
Speaking of the end of a series, January will bring the final installments of the <a href="http://riptidepublishing.com/titles/series/bad-behavior">Bad Behavior series</a>, which I co-wrote with Cari Z. <a href="http://riptidepublishing.com/titles/reckless-behavior"><i>Reckless Behavior</i></a> will be out January 1st, followed two weeks later by the last book, <a href="http://riptidepublishing.com/titles/romantic-behavior"><i>Romantic Behavior</i></a>.<br />
<br />
There's also more <a href="http://riptidepublishing.com/titles/series/anchor-point">Anchor Point books</a> coming. Four of them, to be specific -- the final installment will be released in July.<br />
<br />
What?? Just series enders?? No! Trust me, there are some new things in the works! New series, and new standalones. Maybe even some new co-writes with new co-authors. Stay tuned!

Publishing closed its doors. As a result, 28 of my existing titles
reverted to me and have subsequently been re-released. Normally I treat a
re-release the same as I do a new release -- put in on the Coming Soon
page, add it to the "Now Available" part of my website, etc. With the
sheer volume of titles in this instance, though, that would be
impractical.</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span><a href="http://www.gallagherwitt.com/samhain-rereleases.html">So, I've listed them all here.</a> </span></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-size: 16px;">A few stragglers are still
uploading, so some links may not work yet, but I'm updating them as they go through. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: 16px;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: 16px;">The vast majority have been revised slightly, if at all, with the exception of <a href="http://www.gallagherwitt.com/nine-tenths-of-the-law.html" style="color: #0000ee;" target=""><em>Nine-tenths of the Law</em></a>,
which has a newly extended ending. All are available on Kindle
Unlimited and most are in paperback. Cover art is by the author except for <a href="http://www.gallagherwitt.com/conduct-unbecoming.html" style="color: #0000ee;" target=""><em>Conduct Unbecoming</em></a> and <a href="http://www.gallagherwitt.com/general-misconduct.html" style="color: #0000ee;" target=""><em>General Misconduct</em></a>, which are by <a href="http://blackjazzdesign.com/" target="">Garrett Leigh</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 16px;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: 16px;">Also, a few books have been included in some new collections - <a href="http://www.gallagherwitt.com/spicy.html" target="">Spicy</a>, <a href="http://www.gallagherwitt.com/triple-play.html" target="">Triple Play</a>, and <a href="http://www.gallagherwitt.com/three.html" target="">Three</a> - and those are listed below as well. </span><br />

My newest contemporary gay romance, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XBG4SR2"><i><b>At the Corner of Rock Bottom & Nowhere</b></i></a>, is on Amazon! (the paperback should be live in the next few hours)<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Blackjack dealer and stripper Adrian West has lived in Las Vegas long
enough to be numb to beggars on the Strip. Their destitution is a sad,
ugly part of reality in a city where people win or lose it all at the
tables every single day.<br /><br />So he’s at a loss to explain why the
homeless man in the suit catches his eye. Why he can’t just keep on
walking like he always does. <br /><br />Former advertising executive Max
Reynolds is a Las Vegas cliché. After a run of bad luck costs him his
boyfriend, his job, and his home, he’s decided to go out with a bang—a
week of high-rolling capped off with a peaceful overdose in a luxury
hotel room. <br /><br />When a last second epiphany keeps him from finishing
the job, he’s ready to live again… but he doesn’t have a dime to his
name. He has nothing.<br /><br />That is until a stranger takes him in off
the street. Max may have hit rock bottom, but now he has a glimmer of
hope and an unexpected friendship. <br /><br />A friendship that just might turn into everything neither man knew he was missing.<br /><br />This novel is approximately 51,000 words.</blockquote>

Be nice, 2017! 2016 is almost over, and it seems to have both blown by and taken an extra 7,261 days to finally end. The year had its high points, but I think the general consensus is that we really should move up New Year's Eve to yesterday and just start 2017 early.<br />
<br />
Sadly, I don't have the authority to make that happen, so we'll just have to patiently wait out the last two weeks of the year, then move on and hope 2017 is better. There are a lot of things going on in the world, and I think we're all rightfully anxious, but I have to stay optimistic and forward-moving or I will lose my mind.<br />
<br />
So. 2017.<br />
<br />
What books are coming up?<br />
<ul>
<li>January - <b><a href="http://www.gallagherwitt.com/anchor-point--afraid-to-fly.html"><i>Afraid to Fly</i></a>,</b> (Anchor Point #2), <a href="http://riptidepublishing.com/titles/afraid-to-fly">Riptide Publishing</a></li>
<li>February - <b><a href="http://www.gallagherwitt.com/bcc--a-lesbian-romance.html"><i>BCC</i></a></b>, self-published</li>
<li>March - <b><a href="http://www.gallagherwitt.com/the-master-will-appear.html"><i>The Master Will Appear</i></a></b>, self-published</li>
<li>April - <b><i>Back Piece</i></b>, <a href="http://smpswerve.com/">SMP Swerve</a></li>
<li>May - <b><a href="http://www.gallagherwitt.com/bad-behavior-1--risky-behavior.html"><i>Risky Behavior</i></a></b>, (Bad Behavior #1, co-written with Cari Z), <a href="http://riptidepublishing.com/titles/risky-behavior">Riptide Publishing</a></li>
<li>June - <b><i>Get A Grip</i></b>, (<a href="http://riptidepublishing.com/titles/universe/bluewater-bay">Bluewater Bay</a>), Riptide Publishing</li>
<li>July - <b><i>Chief's Mess</i></b>, (Anchor Point #3), Riptide Publishing</li>
<li>August - <b><i>Suspicious Behavior</i></b>, (Bad Behavior #2, co-written with Cari Z), Riptide Publishing</li>
<li>September - <b><i>Rank & File</i></b>, (Anchor Point #4), Riptide Publishing</li>
</ul>
There are definitely more in the works that aren't quite ready to be announced yet -- including at least one more Bluewater Bay book and the third Bad Behavior book -- so rest assured, there are plenty of titles coming down the pipe next year!<br />
<br />
Also, keep an eye out for more audiobooks if that's your thing, including <i>Ex Equals </i>and <i>Where There's Smoke</i>!<br />
<br />
Where will I be if you want to say hello in person?<br />
<ul>
<li>May - <a href="https://www.rtconvention.com/">RT Booklovers</a>, Atlanta</li>
<li>June - <a href="http://europridecon.jimdo.com/">Euro Pride Con</a>, Berlin</li>
<li>October - <a href="http://gayromlit.com/">Gay Rom Lit</a>, Denver (hopefully!)</li>
</ul>
So that's what's coming up in 2017. Here's hoping for an uneventful latter half of December, and a 2017 that pleasantly surprises everyone!Lori W.http://www.blogger.com/profile/00977774459484130567noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1541335208145531499.post-78309510044458369872016-10-25T09:15:00.002-05:002016-10-25T09:23:18.543-05:00"Should I NaNo?"...and a pep talk for those who've already decided to do it.With November right around the corner (and the end of election season so close we can all taste it), the annual question has begun to pop up in the brains and social media feeds of writers:<br />
<br />
Should I do <a href="http://nanowrimo.org/" target="_blank">NaNoWriMo</a>?<br />
<br />
Well...should you?<br />
<br />
Obviously a lot of that depends on what else you have going on in your life, how busy you are with a day job and/or a family, and how long you'll need to hibernate after the election is over. I'm not here to answer that part.<br />
<br />
But one of the big debates that always seems to crop up is whether NaNoWriMo is worth it. There is frequent criticism of the program because it allegedly encourages quantity over quality, that it creates unhealthy competitiveness, and discourages people who aren't able to reach the 50,000 word goal.<br />
<br />
Here's the thing: NaNo is not for everyone. If competition motivates you, NaNo might be for you. If competition intimidates you, it's probably not. And that's completely okay. <br />
<br />
For some people, the biggest obstacle with writing is the discipline and motivation to just get the words down on paper. This is where NaNo comes in handy. With word count goals, competition, and the <i>go go go!</i> mantras coming from all directions, enthusiasm alone can push a writer to get those words written. If that kind of pressure makes you freeze, no sweat -- NaNo isn't mandatory, so don't feel like you should, or you have to, or there's something wrong with you if you don't. You do you.<br />
<br />
For many writers, the internal editor is a problem. That voice second guesses every word and every sentence, refusing to let you move forward until it's perfect. And editing as you go is a perfectly valid and reasonable way to write... unless it's keeping you from writing at all. This is where the "permission to write crap" comes in. It's not that anyone is saying "write the worst thing imaginable." It's simply permission to shut off that inner editor, <i>all the while knowing that anything you write can be fixed later</i>.<br />
<br />
And there's the key -- it can be fixed later, and it'll be up to you to fix it. At the end of November, you will have a finished manuscript, but not a finished <i>book</i>. Still, that's an enormous leap from having nothing written at all. Whatever's on the page at the end of the month can be fixed, tweaked, and polished up. A blank page? Not so much.<br />
<br />
If all of that appeals to you, then I would say GO FOR IT. If it doesn't, no one's going to judge you for not participating. If they do, tell them L.A. Witt said they're a butthead.<br />
<br />
And if you have decided to participate, here is my sort-of-annual-when-I-remember-to-post-it-in-time NaNoWriMo pep talk:<br />
<br />
You are allowed to get frustrated. You are allowed to be intimidated, overwhelmed, and discouraged. You are allowed to quit. There is no shame in throwing in the towel if it's too much. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise, and don't be ashamed or embarrassed if it doesn't work out. I promise, you won't be the first, you won't be the last, and you're no less of a writer because of it.<br />
<br />
In the next few paragraphs, when I talk about persevering, that's not meant to shame you if you have to bail. It's meant to encourage those who need a kick in the butt so they can find that second wind and push on. Only you can know and decide if the best thing for you is to quit or to push on, and if you do decide to quit, know that you still have my utmost respect for giving it a go in the first place.<br />
<br />
With that being said...<br />
<br />
Folks, writing is hard work. Writing 50,000 words in a month is <i>really </i>hard work. When it gets frustrating, overwhelming, intimidating, and discouraging, that doesn't mean you're a bad writer, or your book is fatally flawed, or that you should drop out and take up basket-weaving instead. Writing is fun, but there comes a point when it becomes <i>work</i>. When it's hard. I have literally written over 100 books, and can't think of <i>a single one</i> where I haven't hit the wall at some point. Sooner or later, every book gives me that moment where I'm convinced it's going to fall apart, that I can't make it work, that the whole thing is a disaster. My characters aren't the only ones who get a Black Moment in every book.<br />
<br />
In your stories, it's the "I can't go on" moment that defines your character and makes them overcome everything. For you, the writer, it's when you decide to hang it up or press on.<br />
<br />
Press on. Even when you think your story sucks, press on. It might suck, and that's okay! That's what editing is for. And hell, let's say the story is fatally flawed and will never see the light of day. That doesn't mean writing it was a waste of time! There is no way you made it from start to finish on that story, not to mention through the editing process where you realized it didn't work, without learning something. If you hadn't learned something, you wouldn't be able to recognize the problems your story has, but you did, and you do, and you'll apply that to your next book.<br />
<br />
Writing is a craft. It's okay to suck, because everyone who's good at anything sucked at it for a while. Prodigies and savants are remarkable because they're so rare. The rest of us have to work at it, and that means flubbing <i>Mary Had a Little Lamb</i> a few dozen times before you and Mozart can wow Carnegie Hall.<br />
<br />
You've got this. Make a plan. Make some words. Make a mess if you have to. Put your nose to the grindstone and make it happen. At the end of November, even if you haven't created a book that will one day be published or whatever your goal is, you will absolutely have learned something about the craft, and you will also have learned that <i>you can</i>.<br />
<br />
My writing career literally began with NaNoWriMo in 2008. It was that NaNo that taught me I could in fact write a novel from start to finish, and that I could do it fast. When it was over, I kept going. And going. And going. Eight years, 100+ books, 100+ publishing contracts, several co-authors, 10 publishers, and a full-time career later...you better believe it was absolutely worth the moments of frustration.<br />
<br />
So, good luck. You've got this. It won't be easy, but it'll be worth it.<br />
<br />
And if you'd like some pointers on writing faster, I will now take this opportunity to shamelessly encourage you to purchase my book, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Writing-Faster-FTW-L-Witt-ebook/dp/B011NLV1MA" target="_blank">Writing Faster FTW</a>, which is marked down to $0.99 until November 30th!<br />

So this project is a dream come true. I finally get to make a movie, and as a bonus, I'm making that movie with the amazing Tooji. I heard about this talented filmmaker/musician after his controversial video, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XSn6RfeefI" target="_blank">The Father Project,</a> came out in 2015 (NSFW). Through a series of fortunate events, I ended up connecting with him, and we've been friends ever since.<br />
<br />
The idea for our lesbian film, <i>Passengers, </i>came up during our very first Skype call a year ago, and we've been working on our plan and the script ever since. It's a short piece -- around ten minutes -- about two women who make a very unexpected connection after crossing paths on a local bus. Now it's ready to roll, but we need help funding it!<br />
<br />
Check out our <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2053644319/passengers-a-short-film" target="_blank">Kickstarter</a>! We've got some cool rewards for backers, including a signed movie poster, books, and a chance to put a character into one of my upcoming books! <br />
<br />
Help us bring <i>Passengers </i>to life!<br />
