300

“Turn, flick fingers like such, grab crotch, and PRESTO!” Harmon shouted, the spell book open before him, his unimpressed cat looking on unimpressed.
Nothing happened.
“Damn!” Harmon yelled. “It should have brought forth a freakin’ djinn! I want my three wishes!”
“300,” a voice said from behind him. “You get 300 now. Inflation.”
“Holy crap!” Harmon squeaked as he spun about and came face to floating face with Garbnocturamis, the world’s greatest djinn.
“World’s Greatest should be capitalized,” he suggested.
Sorry, my bad. The World’s Greatest Djinn.
“Better. Now, let’s move on to those 300 wishes,” Garbnocturamis said to Harmon.

The Real World

The bills piled up and the creditors didn’t even bat an eye at the lies he told.
“Can’t you reason with them?” his wife asked. “They have to know we aren’t the only ones in this mess.”
He didn’t bother to respond, his thoughts busy plotting his next move. Legal means had been exhausted; so it was on to other means. Any means, really. Any means at all.
By the time the police caught up with him he had secured enough cash to get them out of their problems. But he’d really just traded one set of problems for another.

Two New eBooks!
Well, hello there!
So, looks like I have been busy with things other than Natural Born Cyborgs.
I have published two new eBooks! The first one, One Foggy Night: A DEAD MECH Prequel Short, is just that, a prequel short story set in the world of DEAD MECH. I have plans for this guy. It is currently free on Smashwords and Kobo, but $.99 on Amazon and B&N. I’d love for it to be free on every retailer site. Sooooo, if someone were to let Amazon and B&N know that it is free elsewhere they would be forced to cut that $.99 price down to zero. Just saying.
One Foggy Night: A DEAD MECH Prequel Short-
Years before the events in DEAD MECH, many of the characters find themselves in one city/state at the same time. Foreshadowing events to come, One Foggy Night is a prequel short to DEAD MECH. Get a peak at Masters, Harlow, Jay Rind, Bisby, Stanislaw, and the Rookie years before their fates are sealed. Blood, sex, action, murder, and moonshine- in the Wasteland anything is possible!
The other new eBook is C-Notes: A Collection of 100 Drabbles. This guy is a compilation of drabbles from Friday Night Drabble Party and also others that I have written over the years. You like 100 word stories? You like a collection with 100 stories in it? Then you’ll love this!
C-Notes: A Collection Of 100 Drabbles-
Giant aliens. Tortured writers. Post-apocalyptic cannibals. Zombies. Vampires. Werewolves. Gangsters. Mad fowl. Devils. And God.
Just a few of the subjects in C-Notes: A Collection of 100 Drabbles. Drabbles are stories exactly 100 words long and C-Notes is chock-a-block full of these crazy stories ranging from bloodthirsty maniacs to militarized turkeys fighting for their very existence! What? It can happen! Kick back, grab a beverage, and enjoy the insanity of 100 stories all in one collection!
You may click on the eBook covers or click below on your favorite retailer. Enjoy!

Natural Born Cyborgs-
The techno-virus used by the Three hundreds of years ago has mutated and combined with BC (biochrome) to create a generation of natural born cyborgs- part biorganic metal, part human. Society decides these Splicers, as they are called, are too dangerous to let live and rounds them up for extermination. Those not found must hide their true natures and fight for their lives. And the lives of those yet born.
Set in the same universe as DEAD MECH, but hundreds of years after the events in the Apex Trilogy, Natural Born Cyborgs is the first in the Splicer Wars series of novels that introduce the world to the new MechPunk style of science fiction- raw, unrelenting, brutal, and shiny.
