Someone *coffsMarymyMarycoffs* has been demanding requesting shirts for Cole McGinnis Investigations, Ichiro’s ink shop and well…. one for Neko.

So… I’ve updated the Dirt and Sin Shop to include these two designs.  Merchandise galore. Personally, I’m gonna go get some cups. As always, things are just a couple of cents above cost solely to pay for licenses, etc. and well, I sure as hell don’t want to pay a lot of money for a tshirt. 😀

WOOOOOOOOOOOT!

Link to Greg’s work. Really. I adore Greg’s work on this series. 😀

Check out the amazing new cover for Rick R. Reed’s July release, BASHED!

Rick is simply put the Gentleman of our genre. Truly. I can think of no one who comports himself with as much grace and good humour and a bit of wicked. And he’s a damned fine writer. Bashed promises to be a combination of ghost-story and romance set amid the tragic aftermath of a hate crime. But as always, I know Rick pulls out all the stops to break our hearts and then mend them back together again.

Be sure to check out Bashed.

Bashed by Rick Reed
2nd Edition

It should have been a perfect night out. Instead, Mark and Donald collide with tragedy when they leave their favorite night spot. That dark October night, three gay-bashers emerge from the gloom, armed with slurs, fists, and an aluminum baseball bat.

The hate crime leaves Donald lost and alone, clinging to the memory of the only man he ever loved. He is haunted, both literally and figuratively, by Mark and what might have been. Trapped in a limbo offering no closure, Donald can’t immediately accept the salvation his new neighbor, Walter, offers. Walter’s kindness and patience are qualities his sixteen-year-old nephew, Justin, understands well. Walter provides the only sense of family the boy’s ever known. But Justin holds a dark secret that threatens to tear Donald and Walter apart before their love even has a chance to blossom.
