We just finished it too. I'm a little confused however: I don't see how ended the blood line would end the islands problems. It seems to me there just wouldn't be anything to stop the *spoiler*

The short, fast-paced writing left me unable to put down the book until I read "just one more quick chapter." And then boom...the book ends...and what a great ride.

This is the kind of book I honestly crave more of far before its final pages. It's so earnest and wonderful and fun!"

Although I haven't started writing the book yet, I've gone thru several iterations of its cover. This is the most recent one and the one I like the best (so far). #scifwestern #booksky

Fresh #tattoo, 16th for me and the first not on my arms (this one's on my chest, pervs). This Oni has many layers of positive meaning for me. Done in 2 sessions, last month and yesterday. Approx 4" tall. Gratitude to the passion and skill of Deon Lucero Jr at Get Inked in Monte Vista, CO.

Tattoo of the face of an Oni, a fierce spirit in Japanese folklore often characterized as a protector. They tend to visually resemble traditional western depictions of the devil, with horns on the top of their heads. They also have prominent tusk-like fangs. This particular Oni has blue skin, a common trait but others may be red or occasionally other colors.

I've made big progress writing Ch 18 of The Nightmonger Murders. Two more chapters to go before I'm finished with the main writing. Here's a bit from Ch 14. Nothing good ever happens after midnight.... #amwritingscifi #scifinoir #booksky

I stupidly miscounted my chapter so it's about 400 words short of my usual goal of 2500 words. It's an action chapter so maybe it's okay to be shorter, but it still pisses me off. #scifidetective #amwritingfiction #booksky

I've completed writing Ch 16 of the Nightmonger Murders and mapped out the final 4 chapters of the novel, so I'm in a good position to finish my book (eventually). Martel wasn't doing as well in Ch 13... #scifidetective #scifinoir #booksky

I haven't posted many quotes lately so here's one from Ch 13 of The Nightmonger Murders. There's a lot of spoilers in that chapter, but this one is not. It's also kinda cheeky... #scifinoir #booksky

As is often the case, I like to play around with covers long before I finish a book, or even start one. Here is what I did this week for the novel I only just mentioned, just to give an idea of the title etc.

Author W. H. Mitchell @authorwhmitchell.bsky.social · 24/01/2026

For me James comes from Jesse James and Dalton comes from the Dalton brothers. Also, isn't Huckleberry one of your pseudonyms?

I've been thinking about my next book after the current one & I've settled on an idea from 4 years ago (see post attachement). On top of the original notes, I've added a bunch more. I'm calling it The Hellfellows of Floodwood #scifiwestern #booksky
