On a good note, I've got a fan in Australia now. Someone there bought all 4 of my series books in one day. So I'm assuming it's the same person. I hope they enjoy them and come back for more in the future.

Sitting at home in the midst of winter storm, Sparta. It's dumped about 6 to 6 1/2 inches of snow so far, with another 3 inches possible. That is sitting on top of about 4 inches of snow already on the ground.

It's a good thing I didn't have to go to work today. There's no way I'd be dug out soon enough to make it. So I'm not going anywhere at all, unless it's an emergency. And someone's car not starting, or being stuck somewhere doesn't qualify as an emergency. My car sits low, and I'd probably get stuck trying to get to someone.

So has anyone else been affected by Sparta? Or maybe Thor? Let us know.

Thanks.

I want to take a moment to wish everyone a happy Valentine's day. I hope each and every one of you are treated to a nice Valentine.

As the months go by without me writing anything, I feel kind of like I'm being lazy. I need to get back to writing my next novel, but the time never seems to be right to dedicate the time I need to get it the way I want it.

However, I have been making time to play guitar on an almost daily basis. I have been playing again for just over a year now. I had laid the guitars down for nearly 14 years without hardly touching them. I'm not nearly as good as I was, but I am doing pretty well, considering the long layoff. I wish I'd not taken that much time away from playing, but life happens, and time is not something you can make appear out of thin air.

So what have all of you been up to this winter?

Grab a paperback for those holiday airport layovers. If you're into suspenseful thrillers, then this one might be up your alley. Go check it out. Thanks in advance.

World's End, a novel.

I want to wish everyone a safe and happy New Year. I hope 2015 brings you prosperity.

I would like to take this time to wish everyone that celebrates it, a Merry Christmas. I'm glad to be a part of your lives, even if it's just for an escape from reality with one of my books. I'm honored to have you as a reader, and I hope to continue on in the future.

Thank you,

Jim Bannon

Who out there is looking forward to Black Friday? I know my wife and I always go out and get some good deals. We will be shopping on Thanksgiving and Black Friday both. It is always fun to see how crazy some people get over some of the deals.

This year, I really don't have anything in mind to get, unlike years past. So I am going to just wing it and see what kind of deals are available.

With the weather getting colder, how many of you are ready for winter? I know I dread the cold, near zero, and sometimes sub zero temperatures.

How many of you are planning to write a novel for the month of November? I know I'm going to try to complete one that I started nearly 2 years ago. That's my goal for the month of November.

I just saw a post on a fellow author's page about NaNoWriMo this month. I am going to get into that with my latest novel. I've got a good start at about 30,000 words so far. Maybe by the end of the month I can have the rough draft completed. Wish me luck. 

I want to personally say thanks to everyone that participated in the giveaway yesterday. I hope you enjoy reading "Cabin Honeymoon" and come back to check out my other books.

All day long, today, Halloween, I'm making my scary short story, "Cabin Honeymoon" available for free from Amazon. Please be advised that this is not for the faint of heart.

Blurb

Accepting Logan’s marriage proposal was the most exciting event of Lorna’s life. But deciding in what country to marry her fiancé proved to be more than a tearful ordeal. When Lorna’s dad announced unexpected news, the wedding wheels spun in a different direction.

With other family members stirring conflict, would there be a wedding? Or would their shared kiss deepen their desire?

Teaser 3

"You're easy to flirt with," Lorna replied, her eyes briefly hooded, "Which means you can get carried away when tempted by a wanton woman." Her polished fingernails raked his palms and his grip tightened around her wrists.

With one look over his shoulder to check there was no waiter nearby, he whispered, his gaze unflinching, "I'm clearly unable to resist your seductive charm, Lorna," he agreed, lifting one hand in surrender. "But no other woman, I repeat, no other woman comes close to igniting even a spark here," he pointed to his head first and then to the left side of his chest.

Underneath the table, Lorna ran her toes from his knee to his feet and back up to his knee again. "You're my aphrodisiac, Logan. Right now, all I can think about is being thrown across your bed and driven wild with desire," her eyes glazed over as she spoke. Knowing his head and heart were filled with reckless passion for her was comforting.

"If you continue to seduce me, Lorna, I won't stop until I make you mine...until you scream out my name in the throes of ecstasy. That's a promise."

"Your main course," the waiter called out.

Their hands fell apart as the waiter arranged two plates piled high with parpadelli in cream and rigatoni with gorgonzola. There was a separate bowl of mixed salad with goat cheese.

Her mouth watered. She swallowed and sipped from the glass of water.

"I wonder if he heard our lewd conversation," Logan worried, casting backward glances at the receding back of the waiter spotting dreadlocks.

"I was so out, I didn't see him approach. What a sneaky man," Lorna murmured, leaning across the table.

He chuckled, looking over her shoulder. "Don't complain, sweetheart. I warned you to behave, didn't I?" He swiped his tongue over his lips before tucking into his meal.

Out doing some mattress shopping. It's a nightmare out there. So many choices that it's tough to decide. We decided on a memory foam styled mattress. I hope it will be better than our old spring type mattress that is worn out.

With the new TV shows now starting to return, I'm going to have to decide which ones to watch, and which ones to avoid. I still need to get some writing done, as I want my newest novel completed this year. So I need to really budget my time spent doing other things.

In the mean time, since Halloween season is getting near, maybe a quick read short story would be something you're looking for. If so, I've got the perfect fix for a short read that is both scary, and thrilling. Check out Cabin Honeymoon, it's available from Amazon right now. Just don't read it in a quiet room in the middle of the night. It's really that scary.

The link is below, and thanks in advance!

With summer starting to end, and fall fast approaching, I am really having a hard time sitting down to write. I feel like I need to get outside and enjoy some of the last nice days before it gets cold. What are your thoughts on motivation to write during this time of the year?

Some of my books are starting to sell a little bit better than they used to. Now I feel kind of guilty that I've not been writing lately. I need to get a lot of work done on my newest novel, if I'm going to complete it before the end of the year. Wish me luck.

I've been laying the groundwork in my head for a Science Fiction trilogy. Actually, this is one I've been slow cooking in my brain for a few years now. It will be set about 5,000 years in the future. I'm designing things in my head that are so far ahead of our time that they won't be realized within my lifetime, at least that's my ultimate goal. So I hope the technology is not going to be out lived in a couple of decades. It's a daunting task to try to develop futuristic technology. Something that seems like it could or would be developed at a point in time far into the future.

Work is about to begin again on completing my current novel. I still hope to have it done by the end of the year. Then I will start to put together the new trilogy. I'm hoping to get the three books out in a reasonable amount of time. I'm not setting any goals for a time table, but I'd guess something like 5 years to get the trilogy out would be a good estimate.
