Well here we finally are!
Today marks the next chapter of Deep Forest Productions with not only a new book but a centralized online bookstore containing everything that I have to offer and more to come.
First let’s talk about Across the Great Divide. This monthly column for Pagan Pages magazine is now on its sixth submission and the readership continues to grow as do the comments regarding the articles. From fans to other paranormal investigators, Across the Great Divide continues to be respected and well received. Pagan Pages offers many other great monthly columns and issue-specific features. Each issue comes out on the first day of every month. You can read the magazine here:

EVERY page of deepforestproductions.com has been updated! What’s more, with the release of Under a Sunlit Sky I have created my very own online publishing house and bookstore through a business partnership with amazon.com and PayPal. The newest section gathers all my creative endeavors under one roof and you can order directly from me! This allows greater options for you in the ordering process and gives me the opportunity to offer special sales and deals from time to time.

There will be several book signing events and appearances scheduled throughout the summer. Kicking off the tour will be the official book signing and release party for Under a Sunlit Sky on Saturday, June 5, 2010. The book signing will be held at Biggby Coffee in Madison Heights, Michigan located at 31055 John R. Road. this event is free for all ages and will run from 7-9pm. There will be selected readings from the new book, Q&A with the author, and promotional items. While not required, I personally would appreciate those attending the book signing to purchase one of the many delicious confections or drinks from Biggby’s menu. There will be a release party immediately following at Augie’s Bar & Grill located just a half mile up the road at 31660 John R. You must be 21 to attend the party. There will be drink specials, a live band, and VIP treatment for all who attend. Whether you purchase the book the day of, or order your copy in advance, I would suggest you hold on tight to the receipt as those who have them could get some great bonuses!!
I would like to request that you order your copies in advance of the release event. You can order for yourself through the website and have your copies delivered to you or you can request that I hold on to the order and bring it to the show. Either way you’ll want to make sure your orders are placed as soon as possible. As the manufacturing and shipping process can be time consuming I would strongly encourage you to place your orders early. Orders are typically completed within 7 days so order before May 27th at the latest to ensure that your copy will be available. I will only have a limited number ordered for myself and I expect them to sell out fast.
More updates, specific information, and cool things will continue to come about every day from here on out so check back often and I will post updates as soon as I know!
