Tall, Dark & Heartless is here……….but with a few delays

Tall, Dark & Heartless was released on Tuesday to Smashwords, B&N, and Amazon.com. As some of you have noticed, it's not at ibooks yet. It will be, but since ibooks has a very difficult system set up for selling books I had to go through Smashwords.com. Once they've approved my book for distribution it will be sent out to ibooks, Sony and the rest of the stores. Unfortunately, it could take up to two weeks before it shows up in ibooks. I'm sorry about that. I wish that all the markets had it at the same time. I'm stalking Smashwords… Read More

Tall, Dark & Heartless: A Pyte Series Novel……..

Coming in April 2012..... Tall, Dark & Heartless Here's an excerpt, enjoy :) "Oh my god, you sick bastard!" Danni snapped as she struggled to hold onto the tree limb he'd left her on twenty minutes ago. "Stop being such a baby and get down here," he said, gesturing impatiently once again for her to simply let go of the limb and float the thirty or maybe it was more like eighty feet down here. It was really a simple concept and he couldn't for the life of him figure out why she was having such a tough time of it. "Get me down!"… Read More

Pay it 4ward Friday

Today I'm going to finish gathering old clothes to donate and tomorrow I'm going to drop them off at the donation box. I'd like to get it done today, but I'm going to be stuck inside most of the day finishing this book. I'm going to create a page for charities, if you know a noteworthy, LEGITIMATE charity please post here today. I will check it out and place it on the page sometime this week. If you post a charity that is urgent, i.e. a fundraiser for a child or something of that nature please let me know. This… Read More

The second Pyte…..is done :)

For those of you who have been patiently waiting for the second Pyte novel it's finally done. Now I just need to edit it and look it over before sending it off to the very talented Lieve and Maura who will make me cringe and cry, but will hopefully smooth out the book's rough spots :)   And yes, once I'm done with it I will be going back to the next NFH book… Read More

Payit4ward Friday

Today is Pay4ward Friday & we're going to get a little serious here for a second. A situation has come to light with a dear friend. I'm not going into details here, but I am just going to say this, if you know a woman who is in a bad situation, a controlling situation or you suspect that she is being hurt, please don't hesitate to help her or at the very least talk to her. If anyone out there has advice of a phone number for any woman in need of help or someone to listen to them,… Read More

R.L. Mathewson’s Trick to handle scams :)

I posted this on my Facebook Page, but I thought I'd share my wonderful experience with a scam call:   So, I was sitting in the car waiting for my daughter to come home a while ago when the scam for 6.7% called (A company calling and trying to get information by promising really low rates). Since I had nothing better to do I decided to have some fun :) When I was prompted to press 1, I decided that it just might be fun. Now this is how the phone call went down: (Mind you, I used a sarcastic tone the entire… Read More

Tall, Dark & Lonely……

Okay, so apparently I missed quite a few mistakes in Tall, Dark & Lonely, but fortunately for me, Maura, who has graciously volunteered to help edit my books, took another look at it and sent me a list of corrections to be made. They're done. The corrected versions will be available shortly :) I apologize for any inconvenience the mistakes caused anyone.   On a side note, Maura now has a editors credit in the book :)   Thank you again, Maura… Read More

It’s Pay it 4ward Friday :)

So, with the kids sick off and on the last couple of weeks I've been pretty limited on this, but that all changes today. I have a meeting early this morning with a philanthropist foundation to get some ideas on finding resources and ideas on how to go about raising money to aide those in need.  I have a few ideas running through my head already, but I'm waiting to see what they suggest. What are your ideas? What do you think is a noteworthy cause or need that doesn't get the attention that it deserves? If you were to… Read More
