It's available on Amazon now.

World Killer Is Back!
A much improved version of World Killer is back up. The story is the same, but it's not a much cleaner read.
Around the World is up next for an overhaul. I think that one will go quick. It was in the best shape of all the books.
That's all I'm going to say about the future of my books. I'm lucky to have a professional editor who is willing to work for free. That's not saying they don't get anything. They get all the books for free and their name on the book.
You can get the updated version of World Killer here.

Around the "World" Has Been Released!
Well this one seemed to take forever. Almost one year after I finished the first draft, Around the "World" has been released on Kindle.
You can get it here.
It will be available in paperback in the next week or so. The paperback is not going to be the best option. Because of the size of the book, it costs 19.99. That sounds foolishly expensive, but I actually make the same on that 19.99 as I do on the 3.99 eBook. Since I have a small volume, I can't get a good rate on printing.
The other books are coming along. Imagineered Death is with one of the editors. Nemesis and The Shoals are queued up for editing. The second draft of Sojourn is almost done as well.
The early reviews I received on Around the "World" were positive. Most people who read the book said it was much better than "World" Killer. I don't know if that means "World" Killer was that bad, or if Around the "World" is that good.

New Books Coming Soon!
I finally have an update in regards to the squeal to "World" Killer.
Around the "World" (The DW Mysteries Book Two) - It's being edited now. I found a new editor who was willing sign on. I'm hoping it will be done sometime in June. It should be released within a few days after editing is completed.
Imagineered Death (The DW Mysteries Book Three) - It's being edited now. My normal editor is currently working on it. I hope to have it in hand sometime in September or October.
Nemesis (The Advocates - Book One) - Principle writing has been completed! At this point I don't know who will edit this book. My guess is, whichever editor finishes their book first, is going to get this one.
I've received some feedback on the rough drafts of Around the "World" and Imagineered Death.
Around the "World" is a great step up from "World" Killer. "World" Killer laid the foundation and Around the "World" really takes off with the story and characters.
Imagineered Death had the best results by far. I was worried about this one because it takes a bold path. I thought that might alienate some people. It actually did the opposite. It seemed addict the reader instead.
No one has read Nemesis yet. That book is going to irk some people, but in a good way :-)

World Killer and CMDTA's Pictorial Guide Now Available In Paperback
World Killer and CMDTA's Pictorial Guide are now available in print for the first time!
World Killer is available on Amazon. It's 11.99 but sometimes Amazon discounts that price. Why is it so expensive? I didn't opt for the cheapest format. It is available in a 6x9 format which is much better than the usual mass market paperbacks. The quality is much higher as well.
The Pictorial Guide is over $20. There are a couple of reasons for this. First, it's in full color. That alone raises the price. Second it's full sized. I'm not talking about 6x9. I'm talking about a full 9x11.5 format. The thing is beautiful. With the larger size, I didn't have to scale back the size of the photos.

Slacking
I've been slacking really bad in regards to this blog. I am going to be giving it more attention in the next few months since Around the World has made it to the editing stage. I won't be starting Imagineered Death until Around the World has been released so that gives me a little time.
Here are a few things and changes coming to the blog:
1 - Review of the Crystal Caves in Bermuda
2 - Overall review of Royal Caribbean.
3 - Photo of the Week will no longer focus on Disney. The main reason for this is simple. I haven't been to Disney in years and have no plans to return.
4 - This change already happened but, this blog is now focused on travel. It's secondary focus is Disney in general followed by Disney World.
5 - Some Vegas stuff will start showing up in about a month. I know there will be a review of Aureole. There might be a few other tidbits too. Don't expect too much. I hate Vegas. I don't go there for pleasure.
6 - Re-release of World Killer. It's 55% of the way through a massive grammar overhaul. It will also have a slightly different cover.
7 - Re-release of Twisted Disney. Massive grammar overhaul and a very different cover.
8 - Re-release of CMDTA's Pictorial Guide to Disney World. Massive grammar overhaul.
9 - Release of Around the World.
10 - Imagineered Death kickoff.
11 - The announcement of the fourth and final book in the DW mysteries.
That's it for now. I'm hoping World Killer is ready for re-release by the end of the month. It all depends on my editor.

1st Draft of Around the "World" Is Complete
The first draft of Around the "World" (the sequel to "World" Killer) is complete. However, it will not be released anytime soon.
Why?
Let me put it this way. My editor is currently cleaning up "World" Killer. After that Twisted Disney is getting a, desperately needed, overhaul. After Twisted Disney is done, CMDTA's Pictorial Guide to Disney World is getting updated. Granted, Twisted Disney and the Pictorial Guide will go much faster than World Killer.
I can say this. World Killer was a fast read. It came in at around 63,500 words which is roughly a 250 page book. Around the World is bigger in everyway. The first draft came in at 91,500 words and that's after I bumped two events to the next book.
The story in World Killer was dark, and did not end on a happy note. Around the World picks up the story a year later. As you read, you will find out what happened to everyone from the first book.
I'm hoping that by the fall it will be fully edited and ready for release.

When Is CMDTA's Pictorial Guide to Disney World Being Released?
I announced a few weeks ago that I was putting together a new kind of guide book. I have been working on it. The Magic Kingdom section is done and the Epcot section is partly done. I had expected to have it completely done by now. So what happened?
Not to be too deeky but one little spark happened. Another idea came to me and I had a lot more passion for that than I did for the guide.
I have finished the first and second drafts of "World" Killer. It's a murder mystery that takes place in Disney World.
I have a few support pages to finish and I'm working on the cover. Once those are done the book is going out to a few people for review. With this book I'm not sure if I'm going to send it to a few publishers or just put it up on Amazon like I did with Twisted Disney.
Right on the surface "World" Killer is a much better book. It's been edited and a majority of the typos have been removed.
My guess is it will be released within a couple months. If anyone wants a copy let me know and I'll send a PDF.
The guide should be out early next year. I doubt a publisher is going to be interested in that should it should be out shortly after it's finished.
