Stay Home and Read Never Trust an Angel for Free!

Looking for something fun to read while you avoid crowds? Keep your mind off all the bad news with Never Trust an Angel and Other Plays! It'll be free on Amazon through March 16th, and I hope you have as much reading it as I did writing it. Here's what it's about:

Satan is sure that his overachieving son will run Hell someday, but his wife has a secret that may change everything. Jesus wants to quit his job to start a Christian metal band, and now it's up to God to find a new Messiah...but the person he has in mind doesn't want the job. Will God be able to find a suitable Messiah? Will Christian metal be as terrible as it sounds, or will Jesus take the music business by storm? Will Satan and Angel's relationship survive Angel's betrayal? You'll find answers to these questions and more (How did Judas end up with a courtroom TV show?) in Never Trust and Angel and Other Plays.

Going to Hollywood

I'm taking a short break from the blog so I can go to L.A. for a few days to take part in a celebration of female playwrights. My short play "Playing Doctor" is being performed at the Hudson Theatre in Hollywood as part of 2Cents Theatre's Acting Out INK Fest...it's about Zeus trying to get a job as an OB/GYN, and if you're in L.A., you can see it March 17th at 6:30 p.m. or March 18th at 3:30 p.m. I was lucky enough to be a part of this event in 2014, and I'm so excited to be included again this year! : ) If you want day, weekend, or VIP passes, you can buy tickets here:

Or if you just want to see my play (and the three others in that block), you can buy them thirty minutes before showtime at the Hudson Theatre (6539 Santa Monica Blvd.).

Not exactly paranormal, but not normal either

For those of you who don't know, I'm a playwright who has published two books, and what I write about wouldn't be considered paranormal, but it definitely wouldn't be considered normal either.  I write about gods...I put regular people in my plays too, but I like to write about gods because anything can happen, and I'm not limited by what mortals are capable of doing.

I like to think that I write plays for people who don't like plays...I write for people who just want to laugh and forget about their problems.  If you don't normally read plays, I hope you'll consider giving mine a chance...if you go to Smashwords, you can download a free sample of "For I Am Zeus," which is about Zeus trying to pick up a woman in a bar:

I hope you enjoy it, and feel free to imagine Will Ferrell as Zeus...that's who I picture when I write my Zeus plays. : )

My book is free today and tomorrow!

This probably wouldn't be considered paranormal (though one of the characters is an angel), but I thought I'd mention that my new book is free today and tomorrow, July 26th and 27th.  It's called Never Trust an Angel and Other Plays, and I'm really proud of it. : )

Satan is sure that his overachieving son will run Hell someday, but his wife has a secret that may change everything. Jesus wants to quit his job to start a Christian metal band, and now it's up to God to find a new Messiah...but the person he has in mind doesn't want the job. Will God be able to find a suitable Messiah? Will Christian metal be as terrible as it sounds, or will Jesus take the music business by storm? Will Satan and Angel's relationship survive Angel's betrayal? You'll find answers to these questions and more (How did Judas end up with a courtroom TV show?) in Never Trust an Angel and Other Plays.
