My January Intrigue, Texas Ransom, is part of the Ultimate Heroes series, which is getting a lot of great PR. In case you missed the video I posted last week, here's a link where you can watch a spot on Canada's Entertainment Tonight that featured all the January Intrigues. Very cool promotion.

If you pick up a copy of Texas Ransom, please check out the teaser for my upcoming thriller, The Devil's Footprints in the back. If you like what you read, be sure and take advantage of the dollar-off coupon.

I now have 2675 friends on MySpace! My goal is 3000 by the new year. Think I can make it? Want to help me out? Send me a friend request! Plus, you'll soon be able to get sneak peeks of the first few chapters of The Devil's Footprints.

This week, I've been scoping out locations for The Devil's Footprints trailer shoot with the director and my PR guru. We're hoping to use a house in Bastrop, Texas, which is featured in the upcoming horror movie All The Boys Love Mandy Lane. I'll post a pic if we're granted permission. The director, Lucas Amann, worked on that film. We also spent some time perusing shops in Tomball, Texas, for antique bells to use in the trailer. Again, I'll post some photos as soon as we start shooting (hopefully in the next couple of weeks).

The working title for the online prequel is Marked by Evil. It's scheduled to run from the first week of March through the middle of April. A new chapter will be put up every Tuesday and Thursday for six weeks. Here's a little teaser:

Sixteen-year-old Rachel DeLaune has harbored a dark secret for as long as she can remember. And now she has another: someone has been leaving her messages. Bells tied in the tree outside her window. A dead bird on her pillow. Satanic symbols drawn in the dirt beside her car.

Someone is warning her that her time on this earth is running short, but who would want her dead? A jealous boyfriend? An obsessed schoolmate? A deranged stranger?

Or is the threat coming from inside her own family?
