Skandinavien

Skandinavien is a dark, immersive horror audio series that delivers a complete story across 13 chilling episodes. This original and unique audio drama is designed for fans of atmospheric horror and slow-burn suspense, and it offers a truly unforgettable experience.

Told with cinematic sound, haunting performances, and rich Nordic atmosphere, Skandinavien is a self-contained horror series you can buy once and keep forever. No ads. No subscriptions, and not on mainstream platforms. Just a cold, creeping story rooted in folklore, isolation, and the fragile nature of memory. Digital script book included. Put on your headphones.

OUR SALVATION MAY LIE WITH THE UNEXPECTED

Society is on the brink of chaos, a new threat is leaving its malicious mark on the city, and because of historic events, a great and malevolent force has set its gaze upon humanity.

Why You Need to Start Planning Your Holiday Book Promotion in September and October

(Click here to get Book Promotion Help)

Ah, the holidays—the most wonderful (and chaotic) time of the year. Shoppers are in a frenzy, shipping deadlines loom, and your readers are out there searching for the perfect gift. Spoiler: that perfect gift could be your book—but only if you start planning now.

If you wait until November or December to think about promoting your book, you’re already late to the holiday party (and someone else snagged the good eggnog). That’s why September and October are the sweet spot for getting your holiday promotions rolling. Here’s why.

1. Readers Shop Earlier Than You Think

Forget the old-school last-minute mall runs. These days, people start holiday shopping as soon as pumpkin spice lattes hit the shelves. If your book isn’t already on their radar by October, it risks getting lost in the holiday shuffle.

2. Promotion Takes Time to Gain Traction

Whether you’re scheduling blog features, social media ads, or newsletter swaps, you can’t just snap your fingers and expect results overnight. Promotions build momentum, and the earlier you start, the more visibility your book will have when readers are ready to click “buy.”

3. The Competition Gets Fierce

By November, every author, business, and their grandma is flooding feeds with sales pitches. Standing out in December is like shouting in Times Square at midnight on New Year’s Eve. But if you start in September or October, you’ll already have carved out your space (and maybe saved your voice).

4. You Can Strategize Instead of Scramble

Holiday promotions are about more than just posting “Buy My Book!” once a week. When you start early, you have time to:

• Create themed graphics and images.

• Schedule social media posts in advance.

• Pitch to holiday gift guides, book blogs, and influencers.

• Bundle your book with other goodies (bookmarks, signed copies, gift baskets—oh my!).

5. Readers LOVE Holiday-Themed Marketing

Let’s be honest—slap a Santa hat on your book cover graphic and readers pay attention. Start early, and you can weave in Halloween, Thanksgiving, and holiday cheer, keeping your book visible through the entire season.

Don’t Be the Author Who Waits

Think of your holiday promotion like shipping a package. You wouldn’t wait until December 24th to mail it and hope it arrives on time, right? Same goes for your book. September and October are when the smart authors plant the seeds, so their sales can grow into a bountiful holiday harvest.

So grab your calendar, dust off those festive graphics, and start planning now. Because nothing looks better under the tree than a beautifully wrapped book (except maybe two books). 🎄📚

Under Fluorescent Lights

In the glossy world of corporate ambition, the real game is played behind closed doors… and someone is always watching.

At Valor & Watts, a global consulting firm with offices in Madrid and London, success is measured in strategy decks, whispered alliances, and perfectly timed betrayals. Into this world steps the French girl. She is elegant, ambitious, and disturbingly unreadable. From the moment she arrives, rumors follow her: Why Madrid? Why now? And what is she really after?

As she rises through the ranks, she navigates icy colleagues, corporate politics, and a dangerously magnetic connection with Jack, a married British manager who knows how to play the game... and how to break the rules.

But under the fluorescent lights, secrets fester. A missed client meeting. A forbidden romance. An anonymous email that changes everything. As her carefully curated image begins to crack, the question becomes not just how far she’ll go... but who’s already plotting her downfall.

Tense, addictive, and razor-sharp, Under Fluorescent Lights is a scandal-filled tale of ambition, betrayal, and the high cost of being seen.

Eternal Hero (Omniverse Chronicles Book 1)

What if you were haunted by Dark Dreams?

What if you met the woman of your dreams in a nightmare?

Jack Thornton, a former Marine lieutenant who served with the famed “Walking Dead” in Vietnam and who is now a lawyer in San Francisco. His quiet, ordered life begins to unravel, however, when his nightmares begin to shape his waking hours.

The grim images that haunt Jack’s sleep are not of Vietnam but of things and beings not of this earth. Foremost among them is an adversary older than time and evil beyond imagining: the Yarvaak Golu, The-God-Who-Waits.

A fleeting image of a beautiful silver-haired woman and a chance meeting with friends at a strange Irish tavern he frequents leads him on a journey of discovery. Jack comes to realize that he is something far more than human. He is a Hero, an undying servant of the Absolute, doomed to an endless cycle of violent death and rebirth.

Jack will not travel alone. He is guided by Sean Plunkett, once a feared IRA gunman; Ian Masterman, the leader of an ancient secret society, and Bridgid Cassidy, a redhaired Wise Woman who knew him in an age of legends when he bore a storied name.

All of them will aid Jack on his path, which will lead to a clash with an implacable enemy and a meeting with a beautiful woman he has known only in his dreams: Aiyanna...

Liam Donaldson is a thirty-four-year-old recluse, disillusioned with life. Isolated and living in poverty, with no friends and no romantic connection in years, he’s finally reached breaking point.

What brings these two old friends back together? A deal with the Devil, of course.

In a moment of desperation, Liam calls out to the Devil. To his shock, the Devil answers—and offers him everything he’s ever wanted. There’s just one catch: to claim his new life, Liam must kill Dave Cornell. And he has seven days to do it… or face the consequences.

Liam refuses at first. But as nightmarish events begin to unravel his already fragile world, his resolve starts to crack.

Can he truly commit the unthinkable for a chance at the life he’s always dreamed of?

Murder on the Hawaiian Coast

When the body of Dorian Veynar—the ruthless tycoon who built a tourism empire across the Hawaiian Islands—is discovered on his Waikīkī estate, paradise is shattered. What begins as a serene morning overlooking Diamond Head turns into the scene of a shocking murder that sends tremors through Honolulu’s elite. Detective Keoki Tanaka, a man whose roots run deep into the volcanic soil of Hawai‘i, is called to unravel the truth behind Veynar’s violent death. The investigation draws him into a labyrinth of suspects: a fiery former lover humiliated in public, a calculating business partner with everything to gain, employees betrayed and discarded, and islanders whose sacred lands were desecrated by Veynar’s greed. From the glittering resorts of Honolulu to the quiet coastlines of Maui, Tanaka navigates webs of power, betrayal, and ancestral claims. As the body count rises and old grudges resurface, he must untangle lies buried beneath paradise’s postcard-perfect facade. Each clue points to hidden motives, each alibi crumbles under scrutiny, and every revelation pulls him closer to a killer driven by ambition, vengeance, or both. Rich with Hawaiian atmosphere and steeped in suspense, Murder on the Hawaiian Coast is a gripping whodunnit where paradise itself becomes the stage for a deadly reckoning. In a world where beauty masks danger, Detective Tanaka must uncover the truth before the islands’ darkest secrets claim another life.
