Brenda Strange Supernatural Mysteries series returns

So my friend and fellow author Patty G. Henderson has a new book out in her Brenda Strange Supernatural Mysteries series. I read the latest installment, PEG 'O MY HEART, recently and loved it. Brenda acquires an old-time radio and when she switches it on, an old song from the forties begins playing.
Only, as she switches through the dials, it seems to be the only song that plays and at the end, the same DJ says the same thing every time. "Dedicated to Peg".

Meanwhile, she learns that the station the radio is locked to is one that burned down at least fifty years ago! What is going on here? That's what Brenda needs to find out...before the haunted radio hypnotizes her.

I've been  a fan of Brenda Strange for a long time, and I found this to be a fine edition to the series--I'm even excited for the next. ;) Meanwhile, as the banner above says, Patty is donating a portion of the proceeds of the sale of PEG 'O MY HEART to Blind Cat Rescue inc. So if you decide to check it out, you're not only getting a good read, but also doing some good for the world. All good, no? If you'd like to check it out, PEG 'O MY HEART is available in Ebook and Paperback at Amazon.

New dark fantasy (horror) novelette

I hope you're having a good day. I am so far! Our weather here is cooling down, but nonetheless, my creativity is not (are you shocked?). So I wanted to let y'all know I have a new story for you. Every once in a  while, I just get a hankering to write a little darker than the paranormal romance stories I have on offer. This one is specifically for those of you who enjoy my dark stories.

Bicycle Requiem is a little novelette of roughly 9,000 words. and while a shorter version of the story was first published in the zine Twisted Dreams, with getting my rights back and the time that has passed since its publication, I expanded and updated it.If you'd like a little taste, its synopsis is:

On the way home from a draining night of work, Theodora (called Teddy by her friends) finds herself guilty of something she'd never dreamed: a hit and run that results in a child's death.

Wracked with guilt, Teddy hides her secret, carrying on as if nothing happened, but when the victim's zombie returns, bringing along her own kind of disturbing justice, Teddy learns innocent little Mara isn't exactly what she seemed.

And Teddy wonders, would jail be better than eternity with the vengeful girl's accusing spectre.

Is it a small price to pay--and for what?

Legend has it that zombies are mindless creatures, Mara doesn't quite seem so. Well, you'll have to read to see what she's got in store for poor Teddy!

Amazon's Look Inside feature isn't up, as yet, but it should be soon. Anyway, if you'd like to check it out, Bicycle Requiem is now available at Amazon (and Amazon UK) and Smashwords.

I like writing dark, sometimes, what can I say. :) Some might even call this horror (or just dark fantasy) One more thing, if you are a fan of the Antique Magic series, you'll find a little tidbit surprise inside Teddy and Mara's story. :)

Oh, and before I forget. Big thanks to Zeke for proofreading through this one!
Enjoy and have a nice, and spooky, day!
best spooky wishes,
Juli D. Revezzo

About VOICES:

Sometimes the ghosts from your past…are real.    

    

Moira Flynn is arrested for attacking a door-to-door solicitor with a knife. She claims a voice told her the man was intent on assaulting her. The trouble is, she was the only one that heard that voice. Moira strikes a plea bargain and is sent to a psychiatric hospital for voluntary treatment. Dr. Richard Cassano is hesitant to treat her as schizophrenic, as she does not show the standard symptoms. As their sessions progress, Moira confesses there are two voices—and they aren’t voices in her head, but the voices of ghosts. Are they imaginary? Or are they actual spirits, attached to her for reasons of their own? As Moira’s doctor uncovers more of her past, he begins to realize that her ghosts are real. And one of them is determined to drag Moira into the afterlife with him.
