Hello,

There has been a slight change of plans—but my writing priorities haven’t changed. Cursed remains my first priority, followed by Claimed.

However, the Circle has decided it isn’t letting Halloween pass quietly. I’m currently writing a new Circle of the Red Scorpion Halloween novella, which I plan to release in time for Halloween. This eerie holiday adventure brings the Circle together for a celebration where antique masks, supernatural children, and a restless spirit ensure the night doesn’t go quite as planned.

Meanwhile, Cursed continues to grow from the novella I began several years ago into a full-length Circle novel. Revisiting the manuscript revealed a deeper backstory and several unfinished threads that deserved room to unfold.

After that comes Claimed, where Nick travels to Arizona to investigate the murders of a wolf-pack member and a human hunter. There, he uncovers an old danger connected to his father’s past—and a love story of his own.

And those planned horror stories haven’t disappeared. Some may eventually find their way into the Circle universe, while others will continue waiting in the shadows for their turn. The eerie old corner store is still there. Its lights are simply off—for now.
