    Nifty Book Trailer

About the Author

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of over 200 novels and hundreds of short stories.

Running Word Count

REPORTING October 1st, 2025

Total is from January 1st to September 30th…

733,610 words.

September turned out to be a great month as I hoped it would, but again not so much for words. Business and real world, yes. I fell back a touch on Pulp Speed One word count, but still about 16,000 words under, so I can hit it. Easy to catch up.
