Coming up next! October's release... HAUNTED IN PARADISE. You can read it ahead of the release date if you'll leave a review when you've finished. Pre-orders for the epub only are available now. booksirens.com/book/IN1JLRL...

Doing some research on my next horror novel and reading this classic that I read originally when I was 12. New novel in progress = Herman Melville and H.P. Lovecraft meet Homer for lunch on the HMS Bounty. It's going to be epic!

Don't forget to get your paperback copies of DEATH IN THE CARDS before the price goes up at the end of the month. Of course, you'll order it at the same time that you get THE ONE-IN-THE-NOOSE. These two make a great duo for spooky Halloween season reading or gifting. www.amazon.com/stores/autho...

TODAY! THE ONE-IN-THE-NOOSE is live! It's very creepy! FYI bonus, due to Amazon pricing, my book DEATH IN THE CARDS goes up 9/30 from $7.99 to $9.99. So the time to order is now (ahem, Xmas is coming...). Order both NOOSE and DEATH. It'll make us both happy! www.amazon.com/One-Noose-Su...

Blessed Mabon! As the wheel turns, we stand at the balance of light and dark. I honor the harvest and give thanks for the abundance that has filled my life. I welcome the peace of the dark half of the year as I await the return of the light.

Five more days! Something is wrong with the empty house on Vansander Road. Ursie senses it from the moment she steps into the fourth-floor attic and sees a noose hanging from the rafters. She takes it home and becomes the target of a woman trapped inside. A woman who desperately wants to be free.

Watched a 1960s Twilight Zone set in the old West. A "necktie party" for a man who murdered somebody. Horse ran off, he dropped, disappeared and the noose swung empty. So weird. He in a time machine. My book The One-in-the-Noose different. Still eerie to watch that scene play out. Read the book!

It's here! The One-in-the-Noose. pre-orders are live for the e-book. Paperback and Hardcover go live on release day - Sept. 23. If you like spooky, this one's for you! www.amazon.com/dp/B0FQSLQ3H...

COMING SOON! Something is wrong with the empty house on Vansander Road. Ursie senses it from the moment she steps into the fourth-floor attic and sees a noose hanging from the rafters. She takes it home and becomes the target of a woman trapped inside. A woman who desperately wants to be free.

And the Sept/Oct good news keeps on coming! Just notified that one of my short stories has been accepted for publication by Eastover Press's Cutleaf Journal. "Unmistakably Billy Williams" Which I wrote about Bay Bulls, Newfoundland, where Hardy's grandmother was born, after our visit there in 2024.

So excited! The amazing and creepy cover for my new book, The One-in-the-Noose. Coming soon from Twisted Dreams Press. Get ready, this one is really spooky - just in time for the Halloween season.

August Substack post. susanerogers.substack.com/p/start-here...

Working on a rewrite-historical horror on a whaling voyage. 4 pages yesterday, thousand words of new material. Poof! Word lost it. Deleted from my page & shut down. Lost forever. No recovery. NO, Microsoft, you will NOT threaten me to use the Cloud so you can use my work for AI. Recreate! So, F you.

Stay tuned! Exciting book announcements coming soon! Can't wait!

Happy and Blessed Lammas! May you be blessed with abundance!

For all my writer - and reader - friends, and anyone interested in my publishing journey. New topic - How "Uncovering Norman" was published. susanerogers.substack.com/p/where-this...

People ask how long to write a book. Today I finished the third book of a fantasy trilogy. Here are stats. *1st book start 10/31/21 done 8/16/22; 2nd book start 11/10/22 done 7/9/23; 3rd book 9/19/24 done 7/19/25. Total 4 yrs 9 mo. *Pgs 700 *Words 188,706. 1-2 more edits. Published? Maybe 2026-27.

Coming soon-the next book in my True Ghost Story Series. "I Am Somebody." Three generations of women made invisible by the standards of their times and the men who controlled every aspect of their lives. Their story offers a powerful message for modern readers: never take independence for granted.

UNCOVERING NORMAN: Many books are written about the afterlife but here the author documents & validates the evidence, proving the Spirit was an actual living person. References to documents and primary sources as well as specific verifiable facts are included. www.amazon.com/Uncovering-N...

I'll be selling and signing my books at CJ's Summer Market this Wednesday night. Come by and see me. Have a drink, something to eat, and buy a book! [St. Pete, FL]

Coming soon! One of my short stories has been accepted by the British horror podcast, The Other Stories. Contract has been signed and I'll post more when I have the details. I promise it will sound very cool narrated in a British accent! @theotherstories.bsky.social

These are Okey-Dokey, Hunky-Dorey, Super-Duper additions to your narrative writing vocabulary! Toodle-oo!

Blessed Litha! Happy Summer Solstice!

I'm very angry. The review for Uncovering Norman was a SCAM. They used the name of a legitimate writer/editor. Her site warns of imposters & lists emails. The person who sent the review is on that list. This A.M. their new email wanting me to call & discuss pursuit of traditional publishing. BS! 😡

Thanks, Alexis! Review: Norman was a revelation... peeled back his layers—slowly, almost reluctantly at times... gave us just enough to keep wondering: who is this man, really? ... what unfolded was more than just a character study—it was a meditation on memory, grief, identity, and connection.

Sleuthfest was fun, shared with WritersInParadise friends Laura & Warren, & hanging out with Michael Koryta. Went to forensics & crime thriller workshops. Talked to amazing people- Dr. Katherine Ramsland, Lisa Unger, Kate White. Plus Neil Nyren & Chris Gall with insights & advice for my stories. 🙂

Fun stuff at Sleuthfest. Bonus: WIPer reunion with Michael Koryta.

Woke up to acceptance of a story that I submitted yesterday! "The Wolf and the Priestess," based on a chapter in Uncovering Norman, will be published in Dark Emporium Vol 3., published by Fiction4All press, release later this year. I've had one other story published by them in a previous anthology.

Working on edits from the publisher's editor for my novel manuscript. This is very hard work!
