Let Me Tell You About My Character – Felonious Fenduke Filtcher IV

Posted on February 14, 2018 by Michell

Felonious Fenduke Filtcher IV is one of my favorite characters to write. Not because he is particularly intelligent (he is, but in a VERY insane sort of way) or handsome or strong. He is, however, a villain of the moustache twirling variety. Did I mention he is also insane? Felonious is the feature villain in the Jack Kane series co-written by JR Murdoch and myself. It is a real mashup of Steampunk, Superhero, Adventure, Comedy and probably a couple other genres. It is also hilarious (at least in my opinion) and so fun to write. Felonious comes from a very good family in England. In fact, his family was nobility until the American War of Independence from England. It turns […]

Jack Kane is a Print Book!

Posted on March 23, 2016 by Michell

A few years ago, JR Murdock and I wrote a book titled Jack Kane and the Statue of Liberty. We were both delighted with how it turned out and were convinced it would one day see print. Then, a couple years ago it was accepted by Champagne/Burst Books for publication. The model Champagne/Burst Books follows is, e-book first and, if it generates enough interest, then a print book. It was released in e-book formats in June of last year. Sunday, I learned that it was now available as a print book. You can purchase it right now from the Champagne Books store here. It will be available on Amazon in the next few weeks. If you have been waiting for […]

Jack Kane and the Statue of Liberty

Posted on November 4, 2015 by Michell

I don’t talk about my books enough (although my daughter might disagree). For example, Jack Kane and the Statue of Liberty was release in July and, other than a handful of tweets and some posts to Facebook, I didn’t really say a ton. At least, not compared to some. And by some, I mean those folks who Tweet nothing but promotionals for their newest work. THAT is not my way of doing things. In point of fact, I actually despise those types of Tweeters. I try to hit that delicate balance where I’m neither talking too much nor too little about something. I’m pretty sure I fail epically on the too little side of things. So, with all that said, […]

June is Chock-full of Awesome

Posted on June 3, 2015 by Michell

2015 has shown itself to be a banner year for me. Jeffrey Hite and I started our new imprint, Evil Alter Ego Press, our first book, Dimensional Abscesses was released and there are a number of big wins at work and at home. And then June rolled around and upped the ante by a considerable margin beginning right on June 1st when Jack Kane and the Statue of Liberty (Amazon.com link) was released by Champagne/Burst Books. Jack Kane and the Statue of Liberty (Kobo books link) is the first in the Jack Kane series written by JR Murdock and me. The book is a YA/Steampunk/Super hero/Adventure/Comedy mashup that was an absolute blast to write. I can honestly say it was one of the most fun writing […]
