WRITING UPDATE: MITCH TURNER #5 UPDATE AND ONLY THE GUILTY!
I’m very pleased with how Mitch Turner #5 is progressing. Mitch is up to his old tricks, fighting for justice and I think you’ll find this story very enjoyable. I’m about 68% of the way done with the novel before I send it over to copyediting. The picture above is a clue for #5! ONLY THE GUILTY is still moving through copyediting but here is a first teaser of the cover: Don’t forget: THE KILLER’S CLUB is in prime reading!…

Mitch Turner #5 is coming along fast! I’m about 60% of the way done with the novel before I send it over to copyediting because much of the work was done last year. This story involves a case unlike one Mitch Turner has dealt with before. Currently, I’m working through the details of the trial, and building toward the explosive conclusion and finale. In other news, the copyediting process for ONLY THE GUILTY is coming along, and I anticipate that…

WRITING UPDATE: WORKING ON MITCH TURNER #5 AND ONLY THE GUILTY IS DONE!
Late last week, Mitch Turner burst into my office, and demanded that it was time for me to start working on his latest novel, or he was going to take my computer and tablet hostage until I agreed. And like lawyer, he also threatened to sue me, something about tortious interference. I don’t know, I was already opening his file. So it is with great pleasure that I announce I’m back to work on Mitch Turner Number Five! I don’t…

It won’t be long before I start sending it to my copy editors, and turn my attention to Mitch Turner number five. I’m excited to get Only The Guilty out to you to read, and can’t wait for you…

WRITING UPDATE: Draft EIGHT of ONLY THE GUILTY is DONE!
Last week was a really busy week here at Grim Archer Media. I’ve been working away on Only The Guilty. It’s been going very well. I’m excited to finish up with this story and it’s turning out better than I expected. I’ve had the ending in mind now for quite some time, and it’s fun to see it all coming to fruition. The image above makes me think of a moment in the book. I still have several more drafts…
