Book trailer for DAEMON on YouTube

My new novel DAEMON uses forsensics and special ops themes to tell a traditional horror story. It's definitely not for the squeamish, but loads of fun. The book trailer is now up on You Tube. Check it out here and leave a comment! http://www.youtube.com/v/qSPS05VCIZY

Harry,
I haven't forgotten you or your tip on Yossi Sasson. Nor will I forget you as we approach possible production (two companies interested). Unluckily, when I tried the www.darkhaze.com link, it doesn't work. Any ideas?

Thanks, Harry. Good lead. I'll follow up. Any role that you might want to consider in the long list of tasks connected with production?

Harry,
Given your list of interests, this may be a stupid question, but does your director do/like the horror genre?

Harry,
Whore that I am, I'm now looking for L.A. crawlers, since only recently a long-neglected horror novel I wrote ten years ago will be made into a film in Feb, 2009. Natually I'm hustling to make connections inside the industry, assisted by a former writing student at Georgetown U, Sean McElheny, whose first film is slated for production. Sean and I will co-rewrite the script for the horror film. From you bio it looks as it we might have something in common, present or future. You think?

Hi Harry,

Just read your "Along Comes Mary" in OOTG. Great dialogue and details, and nice ironic twist at the end.

It's an honor to have my story in the mag along side yours.

Best,
Josephine
