"Devil's Breath" in PRINT!


My short story "Devil's Breath" will be featured in an anthology titled THE HEAT OF THE MOMENT. The anthology will be available in print! I will post as soon as it's available on Amazon.com.


Your purchase of the anthology will directly benefit the victims of the San Diego wildfires.

With one e-mail sent by publisher Karen Syed to 21 authors, "The Heat of the Moment" was developed. Each of the authors involved in this remarkable collection of short stories, the youngest being sixteen years old, has made a pledge. Contributors, authors, editors, and artist; all have committed their royalties to benefit the survivors of the San Diego fires of 2007.

"The Heat of the Moment" is a compilation of twenty short stories with one common theme—fire. From fantasies to tributes remembering historical catastrophes, chilling and moving, the stories will tap human emotions with their overwhelming credit to survival.

The Fire Safe Council of San Diego County (FSCSDC) was formed in 1997 and is comprised of a 15-member Board of Directors (voting members). The Board consists of federal, state, and local agencies and stakeholders as determined by the FSCSDC. The FSCSDC is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, is incorporated under the California Franchise Tax Board. The FSCSDC is a member of the California Fire Safe Council, a non-profit corporation, and is authorized to use the name "Fire Safe Council" and the FSC logo. All FSCSDC Council members have common goals of fire safety education and pre-fire management, attend meetings, and participate in SDCFSC programs and activities.

Echelon Press, LLC, is an independent publishing house based in Laurel, MD.

Look for my story, titled "Devil's Breath". It is the story of a struggling blended family that finds a connection in the grasp of raging chaos.
