It is received wisdom that the best way to get your name out there is to publish short stories. Like most received wisdom, there is no way to tell if anybody is actually receiving it. (For example, the New Yorker, which consistently refuses to publish my short stories.) If anybody else out there is as frustrated as I am in the quest to get their stories published, here are five indispensable resources:

THE WAR GATE, A TIME-TRAVEL THRILLER INTO TERROR , HORROR AND MAGIC!  Full-length, 332 pages of thrills, romance and chills. Available on Amazon Kindle:

 

http://www.amazon.com/The-War-Gate-ebook/dp/B008SDVEQU/ref=sr_1_5?s...

 
Tag Line: Through a miraculous conception, Avalon Labrador must give birth to herself before she is executed, to solve her husband’s murder and her own wrongful conviction.

When the reincarnated Avy Labrador is kicked out of her stepfather’s house on her 18th birthday, she has no idea that the man who raised her framed her mother to cover his murder so he could acquire a major software empire. Now, years later, with the help of her magician boyfriend, Sebastian, Avy is about to discover that her birth was otherworldly and for a purpose. The ancient Roman God Janus was so appalled by the heinous murder of Tom Labrador by his brother Drake that he opened up a War Gate. Avy has received half of her mother’s soul light and half of a God’s essence. Her mission is to put the real killer behind bars. The only catch: she must learn to “Gate-Walk”, that’s time traveling to the layman. She soon finds out that she is a drunk driver on the space/time continuum super highway.

“This was a solidly written tale with a trace of fantasy and complex thought used in defining the concept of leaping from one time gate to the next—excellent job of structuring.”

Terrie G, Bitten by Books, 4 out of 5.

“The War Gate is a captivating book. Mystery, magic and the paranormal blend together in a perfect mix. I would thoroughly recommend this book to fantasy enthusiasts who also like romance.

Orcid, Aurora Reviews, 5 out of 5.

War Gate Author's Note: The antagonist character, Wax Man, is not for the squeamish. I warn you ahead of time that he is the most disgusting, vile creature/human you're ever likely to read about. Not for younger readers under 13.

My debut YA Paranormal/Time Travel/First Kiss romance novel entitled "I Kissed a Ghost" is a sweet story which will also appeal to preteens.  Don't take my word for it, read the review my book got from Micki Peluso on Amazon.com
