The Elemental Assassin series – Short Stories
I’ve written several short stories to go along with the Elemental Assassin books. You don’t have to read the short stories to enjoy the books, but I thought the stories would be something fun and extra to offer readers.

The Mythos Academy series – Short Stories
|
Just like I do for my Elemental Assassin series, I plan to write at least one short story to go along with each one of the Mythos Academy books. You don’t have to read the short stories to enjoy the books, but I thought that writing the stories would be a way for me to offer something fun and extra to readers.
First Frost #0.5: This prequel e-story takes place before the events of Touch of Frost, the first book in the Mythos Academy series. In First Frost, Gwen Frost picks up another girl’s hairbrush after gym class one day — and sees something more horrible than she ever imagined. Click here to read an excerpt.
Note: This will be available as an e-story through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other booksellers, not as a free story here on the website.
Halloween Frost #1.5: This e-story takes place after the events of Touch of Frost, the first book in the Mythos Academy series. It’s Halloween at Mythos Academy, but Gwen Frost and her friends are in for more tricks than treats when they run into a mythological monster intent on killing them. Click here to read an excerpt.
Note: This e-story is available as part of Entangled, an e-anthology that is available from online booksellers, not as a free story here on the website. All proceeds from Entangled go to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
Spartan Frost #4.5: This e-story takes place after the events of Crimson Frost, the fourth book in the series. This story is told entirely from Logan Quinn’s point of view and tells what happens to Logan after the end of Crimson Frost. Click here to read an excerpt, although please note that the e-story does have spoilers for Crimson Frost.
Note: This will be available as an e-story for $1.99 through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, iTunes, and other online booksellers, not as a free story here on the website.
