I’m sitting here in my writing space, glancing out the nearby window between typed words, enjoying how the bare tree branches seem to crack the gray sky into fragments.
I like these quiet days when Mother Nature is still trying to decide between winter and spring. The nights are blustery and cold, while the afternoons grow muggy and warm. I might leave the house wearing my parka in the morning, only to shed my outer layers in the bright sun. Days like this remind me of why I love to write.
This day, in particular, is special, because my debut novel, which first came out in 2012, has found a new home with Crystal Lake Publishing. Once again you can join Marty, Naomi, Corey, and Anna as they travel through a world they no longer recognize as home.
If you haven’t accompanied Raft and Company on their journey since that first 2012 release, this new edition contains a forward by Todd Keisling as well as updated and edited contents. If you’ve never been on this apocalyptic trip, now is as good a time as any to press play on Soundtrack to the End of the World.

A suicidal nudist strolls into traffic.
An eccentric Buddhist claims he can occupy other people’s bodies.
All the while, whispers of a new form of entertainment blow through town.
Prompted by these strange occurrences, Marty Raft, a not-so-gentle giant, investigates and discovers underground clubs peddling music that induces an out-of-body experience. Marty and a wannabe comedian, Corey, set out to prove these special frequencies are nothing more than a hoax, or at worst, a mass-drugging. Instead, they uncover a secret with world-ending possibilities.
If you can hear the music, it’s already too late.
