Hey folks. Getting ready to release The Queen of No Tomorrows in an expanded edition, with a new novella entitled "Dreams are Made of Us" included. Cait MacReady, a librarian and forger who tires of copying occult and magickal texts and decides to make up one of her own, just to see who she can fool with it, to see if unsuspecting readers will grant it power and reputation. Unfortunately for Cait, she already has an interested buyer in the book, a book that should not exist and nobody should know about. But the Queen of No Tomorrows already covets Cait's book, already knows the power that lies within it. Before she knows it, Cait is in over her head, swallowed by the book, by the hidden god named within it and by the knowledge that all of this happened before she ever dreamed it up. The magic that Cait never believed in but sought to profit from was more real than she dared believe. The Queen of No Tomorrows releases on July 7, 2023. If you're interested in reviewing a horror/fantasy/crime novel with an eighties setting and "austere and stinging" prose (Laird Barron), contact me directly here. A southern California native transplanted to the Sierra Nevada Foothills, Maxwell has been writing since he learned how to touch-type before he was in high school. He attended college at University of California, Irvine and graduated the same year TWIN PEAKS came on the air. Afterwards, he went on to work at a think-tank with members of the Manhattan Project team. Don't get excited. He did computer and clerical work. He took classes in design and animation and went on to work as an animator at Netter Digital, on MAX STEEL and DAN DARE. Sometimes he plays guitar and or keyboards and or drones for Identify 9, which you can hear at highway62.bandcamp.com. His latest project is the weird horror/crime series Hazeland, with the first release coming out this summer and the next several releases coming two a year. He is the author of several novels, including RAGNAROK SUMMER (out for the kindle now). He has written several short story collections, including TUG ON THE RIBBON and BLINK AND OTHERS and the upcoming DUSTBEARER. HIGHWAY 62 REVISITED is his latest collection of non-fiction and commentary, following THE COLLECTED FULL BLEED. Finally, he is the writer and creator of the western/horror comic series STRANGEWAYS, illustrated by Luis Guragña (gur-anya) and Gervasio and Jok. He talks too much on twitter (@highway_62) and spends too much time on tumblr (highway62.tumblr.com and intrapanel.tumblr.com) where he chatters about movies and comics, respectively.
