Bounty Hunter FREE for a limited time!
Yes, Bounty Hunter is going to be free for the remainder of November on Smashwords. Here is the link for it: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/9553 Now, I don't know if Amazon or B & N will follow suit on their sites and mark it down to free as well or leave it at regular price. I've heard they will match pricing, but I don't know first hand, I guess we will see on that. Hope you check it out, and if you like it, decide to buy the others.

Bounty Hunter
Just wanted to let those of you who weren't aware of it that you can read the 1st chapter of Bounty Hunter at my Authorsden site which is linked to the left of the page. I will have another post tomorrow to talk about how things are coming along with the trio of new books that I've been talking about.

Bounty Hunter on Kindle
It's looking like Bounty Hunter will be released first on the Kindle. The actual release date for it has not been determined yet but I am thinking it will most likely be either the middle of December or late December to coincide with those that get the Kindle as presents. So it may be around the 25th-28th range, that's just a guess at this point. The paperback version will follow that in late Jan/Feb.

Octobers Interview
Here is October's interview from the website.
Q: During our last interview you stated you were just putting the finishing touches on Bounty Hunter, how is that coming along?
A: We're getting there. I've got someone doing the cover and we're trying to come up with something that appeals to me.
Q: Is December still the targeted date?
A: Yeah. It depends on how soon the cover is done. Hopefully it'll be ready sometime in December. If not, I can't imagine it not being ready by the end of January, but it's also somewhat in the hands of distribution and how fast they get things going.
Q: Is Deadlock still next?
A: Yeah, I've pretty much mapped out most of what I want to do with that story, so it'll definitely be next.
Q: Have you chosen a charity for it yet?
A: No, not yet. I've got some really good choices to pick from. That's one of the hardest things is that there's so many organizations that I'd like to help that it's tough to narrow it down to one.
Q: You mentioned Wanted in our last chat. Is that still on the horizon?
A: It's definitely on the horizon but probably will not be one of the next couple releases. I originally thought it'd come out after Deadlock but I've been contemplating releasing a couple non-westerns first.
Q: Really? Can you shed any light on these?
A: One would be a Thriller and another would be like a supernatural Thriller.
Q: Do you have titles and plots for these yet?
A: No titles yet. The basic story I have down. I know what I basically want to do with both of them. It's just flushing out the details and getting from one point to another.
Q: Can you tell us the storylines?
A: Hmm...not just yet. Maybe next month I'll divulge a little more once I get working on them a little more.
Q: You look pretty well rested so I imagine the new baby hasn't arrived yet?
A: Good observation! No, he hasn't come yet. We're at 38 weeks right now but my wife is measuring at 42 weeks so we actually have another ultrasound tomorrow so we'll see how things go from there. It's possible that we could have the baby by the end of the week depending on what the doctors recommend

Bounty Hunter cover
The cover for Bounty Hunter is finished. It was completed by Greg Banks a few days ago. Took a little longer than I had planned but we went through a few designs before we found one that I really liked. Still not sure on a release date but it most likely will not be before the year's over.

Septembers interview
Every month I have an exclusive interview up on my website. I've decided that when a new interview is posted that the old one will be put up here on the blog so it can be archived and people can read the old interviews if they so choose. Here's the one from September:
Q: How soon is Bounty Hunter to being published?
RJ: Pretty close, I think. Within the next few days or so I'm gonna start looking for someone to do the cover. The story's basically done, just putting the finishing touches on.
Q: How does it stack up in your mind to Assassin & Escape?
RJ: I think it's pretty similar to Assassin in terms of there's a chance for more books or stories about the character.
Q: So do you have anything else in mind already for it or a short story coming soon as well?
RJ: Not right now but the possibility exists for more depending on how it's received.
Q: What will be after Bounty Hunter?
RJ: I'm not sure just yet. I would probably say Deadlock or Wanted if only for the fact that they have more written pages than the others but they're not that close to being done as yet.
Q: Will Bounty Hunter be out by the end of the year?
RJ: It's tough to say. Ideally I'd like to say yes. But my wife and I are expecting our 2nd child in October so I know things will get a little crazy around that time which will most likely push things back a little. I'd like for it to be available by Christmas so people can get it as gifts but we'll see how that goes.
Q: You've been having nice success with your short stories on Amazon with all of them reaching the top 10 in their respective genres, has that surprised you at all?
RJ: I don't know if I'd say surprised but it's definitely not something I was expecting. I kind of knew that Day Of The Assassin would probably get there since there were quite a few people asking for more stories with Matt Beck, so I knew there would be at least somewhat of an audience for it. Mason Files I really didn't know what to expect with it. There was no buildup or clamoring so I figured it could go either way. I wasn't really sure what to expect with Misconduct either. You know, that's a story about a hockey fighter battling through his rookie season, not really something I figured would have a lot of appeal, and I really only skimmed the surface with that. Looking back I could've delved a lot deeper into other issues involving a host of people but that probably would've wound up turning into a book or something.
Q: Could we see a book based off of Misconduct or other stories going further?
RJ: Well, I'm not gonna say no, but it's not something I'm planning on.
Q: What's the feedback you've gotten on your first 2 books?
RJ: Pretty good, actually. I know I'll never be compared to one of the literary greats or win any writing prizes or anything like that but I'm ok with that. The only goal I have is that when someone reads something I've written they enjoy what they're reading and they want to keep turning the page. I think I'm a good storyteller, and when you're done one of my works you'll be glad you picked it up.

Ramblings
The book trailer for Escape is done and is on Youtube right now. I'll have it on the website within the next few days and I'll post it to here also. Also, the book cover for Bounty Hunter is being worked on right now and should probably be done within the next 2 weeks. I also will have some details coming up on some websites that will be reviewing/interviewing me in the coming weeks. I'll keep everyone posted when I have further details.
