If 'Silver & Garlic' get picked up by a publisher, I'll most likely revamp Nightmare People &OSH to remove the Dreadful stories, as those were early versions of part of the new novel. I have two new stories to replace them. #horror #booksky #books #author

I went to the cabin to die. Really die. Suicide by sunlight. And I wanted it. I wanted more than anything and you... changed me. Changed my mind. That life could go on. -Lynn Clayte Silver & Garlic #booksky #horror #autjor #vampire

I came here for you... idiot. I was dead, don't you understand that? I know you do, or you wouldn't have gotten Derrick to take care of me. To save me.

Bulletproofghost.com A guilt ridden cyborg. Your fears made flesh. A fiancé's betrayal turns her into a literal monster. The beast desires to kill again, but can she use her sliver of willpower to stop it. Enter my worlds and be changed.

Not just in events, but in how the characters develop, what ends up motivating them. What engages them. What breaks their hearts. #horror #love #hate

I wrote a bit of a monologue for Garlic & Silver yesterday, but it's for the last book... when the first isnt out yet. The monologue will be what drives the three books forward, more or less. #booksky #horror #action

Knocked out most of a chapter for second draft of Silver and Garlic today. Really happy about how this book is coming along. Originally a handful of short stories, now being realized as a novel. Trevor's backstory made me tear up a little. #booksky #horror #action #author

I spent 5 hours yesterday on rewrites on 'Silver & Garlic'. I had an idea when I wrote the first draft to include a character from a different story I wrote, but she just didnt fit as a permanent member of the main characters.

I have tomorrow off from my jobjob and I think I have to restructure the end of Silver and Garlic again. I have a solid idea for the second book, but it requires a little bit of set up; which means some changes to the current version. But I think they'll make the story more interesting. We'll see.

You can live in the light until then. Even if that means you'll have to live in ignorance. -Silver & Garlic: Of Wolf and Gods #booksky #horror #scifi

Hoping to get more of 'Silver & Garlic: Of Wolf and Gods' done tonight, but takes second place to the return of the Devil of Hella Kitchen.

Now that I'm working on the 2nd draft of Silver and Garlic: Of Wolf and Gods, I'm starting to build the second book in my head and in notes on my phone. Story points, chapters, plot points, character arcs... I hope it all will mean something and I can actually get a publisher interested. #booksky

What she didn't say is that she still loved him, even after everything he'd done. What he didn't tell her was that he would never forgive himself. #booksky #horror #SilverAndGarlic

After years of putting it off, I, nearly life long Ninja Turtles fan, read The Last Ronin. I can't believe @paramountplus cancelled the movie version that was going to be a direct sequel to the original trilogy. That's such a goddamn blunder. #tmnt

Goddamnit. I had an idea for an epiilogue for Of Wolf anf Gods and maybe an alternate title that might be more marketable. So here I am, instead of second drafting on my day off, writing a whole character interaction to cap off the novel and tie up some loose ends. #booksky #horror

I'll be knocking out the middle part of 'Of Wolf and Gods' 2nd draft this week. My mother in law just got out of rehab for her cardiac incident, so I've been a bit busy. I'm ready to get back to it. #booksky #horror

When I say I've improved as a writer in the last several years, I wasn't kidding. Comparing the final version of the original short story 'Wolves in the Ice' vs Second draft of new Dreadful novel that folds that story into it's first chapter.

And we finally have the final, text version of Issue 2 of The BulletProof Ghost! The reflection of the future and the grocery store are directly influenced by both Boonville and Tennyson, Indiana of my youth.

Now my mother in law is more stable from her cardiac event, I'll try to write more and post on here more. I know I've been absent and I'm sorry. Just been really busy lately. Thanks for the support and I hope to have updates on 'Of Wolf and Gods' soon. ❤️ #booksky #horror

Sorry for the lack of updates lately. Last Thursday, my mother in law had a seizure that landed her in the ICU. She's still there and gradually improving.

Due to the impending weather, I will not be attending Frankfortcon. Apologies and I hope to see you at other events. #booksky

www.bulletproofghost.com/single-post/... New website updates are happening today! The first blog post just covers a high res version of The BulletProof Ghost Issue 2 comic book cover being finished. 2026 signing events will be up later. And perhaps a video or two. #comics #booksky #scifi #indie

Well if the snow storm effs up Franfortcon, then I'll have time to do a couple and hopefully final rewrites of 'Of Wolf and Gods' and get back to milling through the second draft. #booksky #horror #books #amwriting #writing #author

Weather permitting, I'll be here. #comiccon #frankfortcon #horror #booksky

Well, now there's a movie coming out called The Dreadful starring multiple actors of Game of Thrones fame... so it looks like I'm renaming 'Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods' to simply 'Of Wolf and Gods', which will likely become the series name. #booksky #books #horror

Locked in a few signing events today and may have more to announce. Trying to hit states I haven't visited as a writer before. One place is 6.5 hours away, which is the furthest I've gone. ☺️ #booksky #horror #comics

Trying to knock out as much of Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods 2nd draft before I go back to my jobjob. My goal for 2026 is to get this book published by a large distributor. It's gonna be a year of submissions and more than likely a lot of rejections.😅 #booksky #horror

I just removed quite a bit of dialogue from the Sister's Keeper chapter of Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods. It literally explains the plot of Scarlet Sheets, which is now the third chapter of this novel. I hope the improvements in the novel will make it rereading these portions. #booksky #horror

Allun drank some of a beer in my first draft?! Wtf past me! Vampires can't drink ale. So ashamed. #booksky #horror

Not to add to the #StrangerThings conspiracy theory going on right now, but the final villian in that d&d campaign at the end is a vampire.

I think @jamiecampbellbower.bsky.social would make a great William Kintaxin if BulletProof Ghost were to be made into a TV show.

Tonight we New Year. Tomorrow I dig into the 2nd draft of Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods, now that the major rewrites are done. #booksky #horror

Finished all of my major rewrites on Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods today. The ending needed more of a punch than before. It is a novel now, afterall. Now just need to finish that second draft. #booksky #horror

Well, finished Return of the King, I think for the first time. I read a chunk of it in high school. Barely made it through the end without bawling in front of my co workers. 😅

Didnt get a lot of writing done this weekend. Preparing for xmas thangs with my family. Hoping to have solid updates on my projects in the next couple of weeks. Stay tuned. #booksky

I placed 3rd in the 2025 Midwest Writers Guild of Evansville Anthology with my dramatic supernatural story 'Guilt or Ghost'. It deals with relationships, friendships, love, self loathing and suicide. I thought it wouldn't place tbh given the dark subject material. #booksky #books #horror #writing

I had to add a lot to Dreadful Of Wolf and Gods this weekend to adapt it into a novel rather than a collection of short stories. Trevor's story needs to have a monumental moment where his motivations begin to be less selfish. Where he had more to accomplish than clicking his bloodlust for revenge.

And we finally have the final, text version of Issue 2 of The BulletProof Ghost! The reflection of the future and the grocery store are directly influenced by both Boonville and Tennyson, Indiana of my youth.

The new ending to Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods will drive the events of the following novel... if a publisher picks it up that it. #booksky #horror

I fibbed a little since yesterday. I probably won't go directly into Chapter 3 for the 2nd draft. I've decided that as short stories the end of Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods, the ending is fine, but as a novel, I need to tie up some loose ends. So I'm restructuring the end of the #book. #booksky

Next writing session will hopefully allow me to break into Chapter 3 (or 0 depending on your point of view) of Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods. Technically the short story version of Scarlet Sheets won a small award. Looking forward to knocking out the whole book's 2nd draft by year's end. #booksky

I restructured a bit of the first chapter of Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods. I decided that Lynn hitting a naked guy turning into a werewolf was more interested than her dealing w a rando in a bar. Have to catch the publishers' attention and grab the reader right away or all of this will fail. #booksky

I didn't hit my goal of finishing the second Chapter of Dreadful: Of Wolf and Gods, second draft this weekend. I ended up altering quite a bit of Chapter 1 in order to make the events of 2 make more sense or add emotional weight to the end of Chapter 1. I'm close though.😅 #booksky #horror #writing
