“Deathly Ever After” Available on Amazon!

Deathly Ever After by H.K. Rowe
Available on Amazon for Kindle!

My short story “Deathly Ever After” was part of an anthology called Spirits Abound: Ghostly Little Tales, and now I’ve released it as a stand-alone on Amazon.

“Deathly Ever After” is a horror story about three girls caught in a loop where they experience their death over and over again. One of the girls, Lanie, realizes the loop and tries to get out of it to solve their murder.

The story is available to read for free on Kindle Unlimited and can be purchased for $2.99 as well. I’m considering a paperback version, even though it’s rather short, I think it still can be done.

I’m quite proud of this story, especially since I’ve loved the horror genre since middle school.

The book isn’t available on Goodreads yet. Amazon automatically added the book to the library database and my author name is wrong, so I can’t change it. So I hope the Librarians can help me fix it so people can add it to their reading lists. So stay tuned!

Thanks for your support!

I was a Three Black Cats Featured Author!

I’m a little late on this announcement, but I’m happy to share that I was a Featured Author at the Three Black Cats store in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Three Black Cats is an excellent snarky gift store that started as an Etsy shop and has blown up as a prominent place with its own brick-and-mortar store. In addition to the great items they offer, such as wine tumblers, home decor, clothes, and more, they also display a Little Free Library and provide free books to patrons. This month, I was the featured author and gratefully donated copies of my books, business cards, and bookmarks to share with new readers.

I will admit, the owner of Three Black Cats is a long-time friend of mine, and she is generously giving exposure in her shop to indie authors like myself. I couldn’t be more grateful and appreciative of this opportunity!

I’m hoping this sparks some motivation in me to finish editing some of my new stories. I admit I have opened up the file for my in-progress May-December romance story, “Autumn Fire” and started editing it again. Fingers crossed!

Here are some of the displays from the Three Black Cats store. It makes me so happy that people have taken my books! I am also honored to be mentioned on their widely followed Instagram page.

I highly recommend you check out their Etsy shop. And if you’re in the Albuquerque area, please visit their store!

Cheers,

H.K. Rowe

Deathly Ever After cover reveal

In 2018, I worked with a small group of independent writers to put out an anthology called Spirits Abound: Ghostly Little Tales. It was a fun group experiment, but despite the joy of collaborating, we all became rather busy, and for me, who spearheaded the anthology, I just didn’t have the time to put together another one.

I contributed a short story called “Deathly Ever After”, which is a gripping horror story of which I’m quite proud.

In the coming months, I’ll release this story by itself as an e-book on Amazon Kindle. Here is the cover I created to launch the ebook. The story is still available in Spirits Abound: Ghostly Little Tales and it’s accompanied by some really great ghost stories. Of course, it’s free on Kindle Unlimited!

I will share the release date soon, and I hope everyone who has not yet read the story will read it if you love horror!

Also – I have some big news coming soon! Stay tuned. I’m hoping to update this blog more regularly.

Cheers,

“Unbridled” Second Edition

The second edition of Unbridled is available at Amazon and Kindle Unlimited.

Hey all!

My first book, Unbridled, has just been updated with a second edition for the Kindle eBook, and it includes a new cover as well. Current owners of this eBook can update it at their Amazon account, or if you have your update settings set for automatic, it should already be updated in your Kindle library.

The paperback is still in progress but will be updated soon. Right now the first edition paperback is unavailable. I am waiting on the proof to check over, and once I’m done with that, I’ll publish the new paperback version as well.

I’m extremely excited to publish this second edition because I was able to massage out some errors and issues, as well as create a brand new cover that I am much happier with than the previous two covers.

I hope this is a fitting end for Unbridled, and once the paperback version is available, I hope to take advantage of some new promotions and possibly a virtual book tour.

You may purchase the eBook now on Amazon. If you have a Kindle Unlimited subscription, the story is free to read! Enjoy.

Cheers!

Book Giveaway: Touch of Death

It’s been awhile since I posted here. I apologize for that. It’s been a busy year for me and I’m hoping to have more time in 2018 to post here. I do maintain an active private personal blog on Dreamwidth/LJ so that makes it harder to juggle social media outlets. Plus having a 1 year old doesn’t always give me adequate time.

I am 98% done with Mod Fury. My goal is to get it out before the end of 2017. Nanowrimo really helped me get far with it and even start the next in the series, even though I didn’t complete the book.

Now the purpose of this post. I am a huge proponent of helping Indie Authors. I am a member of a self-published group and have met some great people there. One of the authors is doing a giveaway and since Goodreads is going to charge for giveaways, she’s doing her own at her blog and at this community. Please, if you enjoy layered characters, action and well done world building, please join her Giveaway. Her book is currently free on Kindle Unlimited.

Lucky Number 7

I wanted to give a shout out to those who have read and reviewed my book Unbridled. I got my seventh review at Amazon recently, and I know I’m no where near some of the other indie writers when it comes to reviews, but each and every review and rating on Amazon and Goodreads means the world to me and gives me hope for the next book.

Thank you! And thank you for giving me such positive feedback.

If you have read Unbridled or are planning on reading it, thank you as well!

How about a treat? Here is a snippet from my new series, The Avenging Sisters, with the first short story entitled Mod Fury coming out this summer.

The mood mellowed with that statement, and they met each other’s eyes with mutual understanding on why they were here. They couldn’t play and enjoy themselves all the time, even though the twenty-first century made that easier. The Furies still had important tasks to fulfill; it was in their blood, and in any given moment they could resort to their darker selves if it meant saving the innocents. It was their true purpose, hunting terrible people one by one so they could bestow their justice.

And last but not least, if you just love writing, reading and blogging in general please take a moment to visit my sister’s blog: Fear Nothing, Risk Everything. She’s a wonderful, strong and beautiful soul, a great mother and even more amazing woman, and she’s fighting breast cancer right now. She’s documenting her journey through this troubling time.

If you could pop by and just give her a comment, like or encouragement, I think she’d appreciate that!

Cheers.
