THE THING UNDER YOUR BED - Release Announcement!

Hey everybody!

I'm back and excited to tell you about my latest book release...THE THING UNDER YOUR BED.

French Press has released several books this year, and it's been a while since I unleashed one of my own... but it finally chewed itself free.  THE THING UNDER YOUR BED is a novella containing your worst nightmare...


There’s something under your bed.

It hates you. It wants to devour you and everyone you love.

Dad’s at work. Mom’s dead drunk and no help whatsoever.

Maybe your stuffed rabbit can help, since he seems to be alive and talking now. Then again, maybe that just means you’ve finally gone around the bend.

Whatever plan you come up with to survive the night, though, you’d better not let so much as a fingertip stray off your mattress. If you do, you’ll be ripped to bloody chunks by…

THE THING UNDER YOUR BED.

I hope it creeps you out and entertains you in equal measure. If you'd like to snatch up your own copy to read in bed (just whatever you do, don't let your foot dangle over the edge while reading!), you can find it in the following places:


If you hear a voice in the middle of the night while you're lying alone in the dark, I just hope you have a bat or something handy, or at least your phone!

If you have "consumed" (haha!) this novella, a little review on Amazon/Goodreads/social media goes a long way to help me spread the word.

Until next time, thank you dear friends, and sleep well...
