 As part of the Clive Cussler Adventure Writers Finalists competition, the organizers made this amazing book trailer to play for those attending the awards convention.

Kinda blew me away. 

 

BTW, Deadly Vision won the Grand Master First Place prize in the Clive Cussler Adventure Writers Competition.

Deadly Vision - Let's Talk Setting

  One thing I've noticed in a lot of books that "don't work" for me, is that they aren't steadfastly grounded in a realistic, well described setting.  And this is a shame, because a great setting can really be an enhancement to any book, and if done well, can even become a "character" in the novel.  I don't mean endless descriptions of architecture or itemizations of all the furniture in a room like a moving list, but a sense that the book takes place in a real setting, with consistency of the surroundings, and enough telling details in the description to really root the reader.  With that, the buildings, their location, the weather, all become living breathing aspects of the book.  It adds a much needed layer of verisimilitude to the story.

  What a thrill, what an honor to be interviewed by Meredith Rankin about my debut novel, Deadly Vision. Meredith has a fantastic Substack where she invests tremendous energy into talking about writing and interviewing authors. I was shocked when she asked me for the interview, and even more shocked when she published it, despite my incoherent rambling. Thank you Meredith. Please check it out, check out her substack and subscribe for more interesting content. https://substack.com/home/post/p-157690153

I have to say, my mind has been completely blown away! Since Deadly Vision came out, I've been watching the Amazon rankings, wondering, hoping, that one day I'd break into the top 100 for Medical Thrillers.  I came close a couple times, up to #125, but the rankings would go up and down.  I checked today.   The novel crashed into the Top 100, landing at #83 for the paperback version, and the audio book has premiered at #16 on the list for Medical/Forensic Thriller!  It also ranked #44 in Political Fiction and #52 in Medical Fiction.  Wow!!! Thank you all so much.  I really hope you enjoy this little tale of one man's quest for redemption, forgiveness and love, amidst the mire of political machinations, espionage, madness, and murder.  Thank you again, sincerely.
