The meme with the guy knocking over a small domino that leads to bigger and bigger dominos. The small domino text says "Watson trying to stop Holmes from taking a second dose of cocaine" and the big domino says "a generation afraid of fumbling while plugging their phones in"

All I have is Georgie, who will most definitely be appearing in future Case Files mysteries!

(She actually has a very short cameo in Confessions of a Medium)

COVER REVEAL sneak preview!

This Thursday, exactly 2 weeks before the story starts serializing on my website, I'll reveal the cover for the new Sheridan Bell mystery.

If you like fantasy mysteries and Irish mythology, keep an eye out for more info about Confession of a Medium!
The book cover for Sheridan Bell and the Vanishing Beast, mystery #1 of the Case Files of Sheridan Bell, except it's been modified--the original cover featured an illustration of Sheridan Bell, but a strip has been erased across his eyes to reveal a different character's eyes beneath: this character is pale with silver hair and his eyes are red. The title has also been erased to hint at a new title beneath: Confession of a Medium.

As for how the mysteries come together, I've found that each one is a bit different. Sheridan Bell's debut mystery featured a gnarly murder and magical beasts, but the new mystery is completely different -- this one features the Otherworld, a medium, and an attempted assassination.

Those who know me know Sherlock Holmes is a HUGE special interest of mine. A few years back, I decided to write my own homage to it.

Enter: the Case Files of Sheridan Bell, a fantasy-mystery series inspired by Sherlock Holmes & Irish mythology! Mystery 2 begins its serialization on 10/30!

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.
