After pounding out numerous manuscripts over several years, I finally had one of my many stories published in an anthology, Evolve: Vampire Stories of the New Undead, and joined several other Canadian authors at the launch at the World Horror Convention in Brighton UK in March of this year. In my spare time I have been involved with a writer's workshop, a national book contest, and a few genre book reviews. I have managed to do some reading though.

, best known for her Sookie Stackhouse novels which form the basis for HBO's True Blood series, will be venturing into another medium. Dynamite Entertainment will be adapting her Harper Connelly books, starting with Grave Sight, into a comic series.
From the back cover copy of Grave Sight:
Harper Connelly has what you might call a strange job: she finds dead people. She can sense the final location of a person who's passed, and share their very last moment. The way Harper sees it, she's providing a service to the dead while bringing some closure to the living - but she's used to most people treating her like a blood-sucking leech. Traveling with her step-brother Tolliver as manager and sometime-bodyguard, she's become an expert at getting in, getting paid, and getting out fast. Because for the living it's always urgent - even if the dead can wait forever.Categories: SciFi & Fantasy, Mystery & Crime, Graphic Novels, Horror
