Time for Our First Twitter Chat for THE CAIN LETTERS! 2/24/16

Hi, guys and gals --

It's been a fun ride, and the journey hasn't ended, yet. In fact, we're not even close. Ever since THE CAIN LETTERS debuted as an ebook and just recently became available in paperback on Barnes & Noble and Amazon, word spreading like wildfire of the mytho-religious and visceral vampire thriller about the hunter herself, Alexandra Glade, is a veritable understatement. This wildfire is beyond earthly restraint.

So it's time to pull some dark thoughts out of the minds of many on Twitter that have crawled into the space that is the account here (which, by the way, Alexandra's got her own Twitter right here, too!), wanting to pick those brains (not literally, thank God) and find out what really terrifies the masses.

This Is Going to Be a Twitter Chat About Horror -- The Sounds That Go Bump in the Night

Hosted by yours truly, of course. I enjoy the dialogue. I want to know what freaks you out.

Prepare for the Twitter Chat, as you may notice the hashtag #ChatAboutHorror. That's me. I'm going to be asking some wicked questions. Like a "Truth or Dare" but with a razor blade. And it'll start tomorrow at 12PM EST, sharp. Not a second late or early. Prepare for some serious tweets, kids!

It will surely promote the ever-increasing talk about our latest vampire thriller THE CAIN LETTERS, of course, and the coming release of book II, CHIMERA FALLS, but without a doubt, think of this Twitter Chat as nothing more than a celebration of the horror genre. I've celebrated it on Google+ here and here, and you might've seen me lurking in the depths of Facebook here and here.

But now it's time for Twitter to feel the shadows. Prepare. #ChatAboutHorror

The NEWEST UPDATE: THE CAIN LETTERS Is Now in PAPERBACK!

It's true. Check out Amazon and Barnes & Noble for yourself. For those who love the ol' faithful smell of the almighty paper (I'm one of them), you can now purchase the world's most visceral vampire thriller out in the market in paperback.

Seriously? Yes, I'm Serious: THE CAIN LETTERS in Paperback Is for Real.

Additional retailers will also join the craze that is opening up the "Cain Letters," our new Pandora's Box of Hell, Hades, and any other proverbial wasteland of another world, as our Alexandra Glade faces a monstrosity of a saga. It's at least going to be a fun read, though....

(And, of course, you might be waiting on pins and needles for the debut of book II: CHIMERA FALLS)

BE SURE TO GET YOUR COPY TODAY

It's Been Done: the Results Are In. Now Let's See the Cover Reveal of Book II!

Thanks to all who put their guesses in on the trivia question about the "vampire with a soul" (which, by the way, the correct answer, of course, was Angel of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" fame, not that it matters!).

Because each and every participant will be getting a free ebook copy of THE CAIN LETTERS right in their INBOX. Just for guessing. I know, I'm generous. I'm so generous that I'll hand over those free copies to anyone who continues to guess either on Facebook, Google+ or Twitter. Come one, come all. Don't be shy.

But That's Not Why You All Are Here.... Correct?

You want to see a little sumtin, sumtin, as far as the long-awaited release of the follow-up to THE CAIN LETTERS. Anyone purchased the book, yet? Anyone read it? Then you know this journey isn't over for the vampire hunter.

The journey continues in book II, and aside from the cover below, you'll see the title. What does it all mean? (picture Captain Kirk making that statement). So there you go. Look forward to this in June. It's going to be dark, disturbing, hectic, insane, vicious, vile and utterly filled with doom. And I certainly won't be leaving any spoilers here....

Saw That Trivia Post? Well, You'll Love This: Want to See the Cover of the Sequel to THE CAIN LETTERS?

Congrats to those Google+ guys and gals out there who tried their shot on the the trivia contest for a free copy of THE CAIN LETTERS. We had some glad winners ready and able to face the shadows and blood of Alexandra Glade's haunting and thematic intro into her darkly divine covenant with the revenants of old. You sure know your trivia on vampire films/literature/stories!

But That's Not What This Post Is About.... No, Sir!

It's time to move on to darker days. Anyone read THE CAIN LETTERS, yet, on Google, Barnes & Noble, Amazon, Kobo, or Apple? If so, review it and then bite your nails. Because there will be a second coming. Obviously.

I'm teasing you, I know. You're correct in thinking that I'm dangling that bloody piece of meat above your feral heads. Want to read book II of the Divine Covenant series? Of course, you do.

You'll have to wait until June, though.... (Don't kill me).

HOWEVER.... There's Light at the End of This Tunnel

It's agonizing given I'm not even revealing the TITLE of this damned book, let alone the cover (and, yes, the cover's now complete.... NOW you hate me....).

But as usual, I'm feeling rather generous about what I want all of you to see for what's in store regarding our favorite sexy, sleek and destructive vampire hunter. You have to vote, though (yeeeessssss, it's another quiz). I put you all through Hell, don't I....

The Good News Is That EVERYONE Will Be a Winner With This One

How so, you ask?

I'm asking for at least 10 -- 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, TEN -- people to give me their answer on this simple trivia question. If I can get ten answers, right or wrong, here's my surprise for you:

I NOT ONLY WILL AWARD ALL PARTICIPANTS WITH A FREE EBOOK COPY OF "THE CAIN LETTERS".... But a REVEAL OF THE COVER OF THE SECOND BOOK COMING IN JUNE.

You heard me. You're going to get to see what's coming. And it's going to be dark.

Ready to play? (as the Twisted Twins would say on "Hellevator.")

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name the ONE Vampire in Pop Culture Who ALSO Had a Soul (CLUE: the Bloodsucker Had the Hots for One Particular Vampire-Killing Cheerleader)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

See? Easy.

Anybody who knows their TV vampires would get this. And even if you don't know the answer.... GUESS ANYWAY! DUH.

Now I WILL be posting this trivia question everywhere. Twitter. Google+. Facebook. Your forehead. Everywhere. So be sure to check it out. Think real hard. Give me an answer by comment, text, message, reply, response, anything. I want to know just how good you all are about your vampire lore.... Oh, yes.

And then I promise you.... You're going to see the reveal of Book II of the Divine Covenant series.

So that's all, folks. Stay sharp. Watch out for revenants. And never, ever let go of your blade. Because you'll never tell whether or not you're going to need it.
