THE SIXTH SIN

In designing the final cover for Portrait of Greed, SterlingHouse staff and I have decided to change the book's title to THE SIXTH SIN which better depicts the storyline. This third novel from me will be released next year (2009) near Halloween. I am finishing the final edits and title change before I return the completed manuscript to SterlingHouse next week. I am very excited about its release next year and I am positive you'll love the book.

In addition, we have finalized the plans for the launch party book signing at The Angus Barn on October 29th (5-9:00 PM). Invitations are being emailed, mailed and hand delivered over the course of the next week. We already have a number of people telling me they are coming even before the invitations are officially distributed. Please attend and bring your friends, no invitation is necessary to attend. The event last year was a great experience, not only for me, but for the hundreds who attended. See The Angus Barn web site for directions; http://www.angusbarn.com/

Launch Party for THE DEVIL'S SANCTUARY

The launch party for my next book, THE DEVIL'S SANCTUARY, will again be held at the famous Angus Barn Restaurant in Raleigh, NC and everyone is invited. This new venue for a book signing was a great success last year when over 300 people attended! See the photographs on my site from the launch of SOUL RIDERS, they certainly captured all the excitement from last year.



Be sure to remember the date this year; October 29th from 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM. Check out the Angus Barn's web site as well at; http://www.angusbarn.com/



I have been hard at work finishing the editing on book # 3, PORTRAIT OF GREED, which will be released near Halloween, 2009. Once returned to SterlingHouse Publishers, they will format into the actual book print and design a striking cover, just like my first two books.



In addition, I have been carefully structuring the storyline for my 4th book, CLOVENHOOF, TWELVE DAYS OF THE ANTICHRIST, and it is taking the shape of a scary, disturbing tale about the devil's final plan to take over the earth and the heavens above.



Please visit the SterlingHouse online book store and purchase THE DEVIL'S SANCTUARY, it is also available on most book store sites like Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books a Million and Borders. And be sure to get a copy of Soul Riders in case you haven't picked one up yet. No fair reading someone else's copy; I put a curse on those who don't buy their own!!!

The Devil's Sanctuary

It was very exciting for me to review the Advanced Reader Copies of my new novel, The Devil's Sanctuary. As with Soul Riders, Sterlinghouse Publishers has done a terrific job of creating a spellbinding cover which entices the reader to pick up a copy for their own. Please go to their online store to order your copy now.



We are in the midst of planning the launch party, near Halloween, to officially release The Devil's Sanctuary upon holy ground. Like before, there will be ghosts, goblins and the usual array of the "undead" in attendance. Last year's attendance numbered in the hundreds and this year should be no different. Many commented that "This is the perfect way to hold a book signing; drinks, food, lots of interesting people and a great setting." Unlike a normal book signing, many guests stayed for the entire evening which lasted nearly six hours!



Thanks again for all the interest in my work and be sure to visit the Cyntomedia site and read all of my articles in the various issues. http://www.writersnewsweekly.com/

Writer's News Weekly

I hope everyone is visiting the CyntoMedia website where my short articles are appearing about scary people, places and things. This week's story about time-travel is thought provoking because we all have dreamed about being in another time zone for one reason or another.

See the site at: http://www.writersnewsweekly.com/re-coyle_time_travel.html


I am continuing to work on several items this summer; my fourth novel, writing more articles for the above weekly web site and creating an ever growing list of ideas and outlines for future books. I have brief outlines for eleven more novels, each with an interesting story around horror. My only wish is for longer days and nights so I be more productive.

Be sure to check out my publisher's online book store. My next novel, The Devil's Sanctuary, is available for pre-release purchase, in addition to being available on other book store web sites such as Amazon Books.

Thanks for reading.

SterlingHouse Publisher Newsletter

I'm very excited to be asked to contribute to CyntoMedia's weekly web site publication. Starting on April 1st, the web site will feature many articles and helpful publishing items for new and experienced writers and avid readers. My personal contributions will focus on scary people, places and things. Quite a broad category, but the horror genre covers so many aspects of life,including life here and what exists beyond the realm of our current knowledge and beliefs.

Portrait of Greed's second edit is nearly finished and I'll be returning it to SterlingHouse for their finishing touches. With The Devil's Sanctuary coming out around this Halloween and Portrait of Greed at Halloween, 2009, I am keeping pace with my initial goals of one book per year. The fourth book release, scheduled for Halloween 2010, is already underway and may prove to be the "clean-up" hitter. With a tremendously dark and devious story line it will be the perfect compliment to the first three novels. I'll keep you up to date as I make progress on it.

Sterlinghouse Publisher Inc. has finished designing the book cover for my next release. Originally named, Fatal Decisions, we have collaborated on a new title to compliment the fantastically evil cover and demonic tale;

THE DEVIL'S SANCTUARY.

The galley proof has been returned to SterlingHouse for the final edit and publishing. The storyline is a wonderful tale of heroic action to overcome an evil force while tranforming
a high school senior into a man. The story begins in Raleigh, North Carolina and transports the reader to the sinister owner of an Inn near Asheville. While the mountain countryside is an idyllic setting, the horror that lurks behind the beautiful facade of the Inn is truly frightening.

Following the "horror next door" theme, this book could be a diary of events for anyone in their teens. The possibility that this could actually happen, to you or someone you know, is a thought to ponder over and over in your mind. But beware, don't think about it too long.
