Blood Moon Rising--New Title

9/16/2013

4 Comments

 
I finished another draft of Blood Moon Rising--It will be coming your way soon, Tris (agent). I'm looking forward  to a submission to the publisher this fall.

I changed the title from Blood Moon to Blood Moon Rising. Sounds better and catches the spirit of the book more. 

I am finally done and am just making some last minute grammatical corrections--the exciting stuff.

My thanks to all of you who have waited so patiently for my books to come out in publication. It's a slow process. I have long ago decided not to self-publish but to go the traditional way of publishing: working through an agent. Tris has been working hard to shop my books and has had some success in getting the first one read. Thanks, Tris! Here's hoping Blood Moon Rising will do well. 

And a big thanks to my wife and muse, Karyn. She has been a patient reader and insightful critic through the writing process. Without her I would be lost. 

Stay tuned for more. I plan on getting back to book three: A Cold Winter's Moon. Cooper has come to terms with his failure to find his kidnapped son, Maxie. But it's a new day for him. The search is on again and he has help from several of his old friends, Richie, Huck, and Boyd.

Looking forward to reading "Blood." Please keep me posted. FYI- Joy and I just celebrated our 60th Anniversary and hoping to continue on for a few more. It was good seeing the photo of you two; had almost forgotten what Karyn looked like but ther she was her own beautiful self. Shalom

Wow! Congratulations to you and Joy on your 60th! Karyn and I have such fond memories of our time in Wilmington with you guys.
I will tell you when Blood Moon Rising comes out. My agent and I are submitting this fall. It's now going through some pretty good editing--from Ryan (remember Ryan?--he's now 29 and working on his PhD in film at U of Rochester) and Karyn. They both are making me work like crazy--as is Tris (agent). Full time job.
All the best and talk soon!

Boss:
I can't believe Cooper is planning a third sortie (I just deduced it!), and I haven't met him even once? Truthfully, how MANY books have you published so far? If I'd known this yesterday, I'd have hit the bookstores today (Sunday) to stock up. Well, I'll start the search.
Kudos!

    Richard's first two books in the Cooper Mystery Series, Cooper's Moon and Blood Moon Rising will have a grand finale coming out this summer, 2020...In this next book, A Cold Copper Moon, readers will learn what happened to Detective Cooper's son, Maxie. Remember? Max disappeared 8 years ago. I promise I'll give you ample clues, but the end provides quite a twist! Let's see if you can figure it out... I doubt it. No early readers have so far.
