Update for All Subscribers: March 30 2025
Publishing plan for the next 3 months
Hi everyone! I’m getting back to my regular cadence at MFS, after having completed the short story Something Like a Criminal and also finishing a major project at work.
As I mentioned in the last update, my latest short story features a key character from The Good Killers. It’s a mystery/thriller set in Rochester, NY around 2010. In the story, a young woman is wanted by the police. She has to figure out why, and figure out how to escape, before they catch her. She also has to make a decision about her friends that will change all their lives forever.
I’ll make the first chapter of the story available to all subscribers. However, after a lot of thought and consideration, I’ve decided to make the rest of the story (about 6-8 more chapters) only available to paid subscribers. I’ve been neglecting the MFS paid subscribers for quite a while and I want to take this opportunity to thank them for their patience and generosity.
If you’re a free subscriber, you’re not out of luck! I’ll continue to publish free content to MFS this year, such as:
book reviews,
updates on They Also Breathe Fire and other novels in progress,
sample scenes from work that I haven’t shared on MFS,
posts on topics related to mystery/thriller fiction,
and possibly another short story.
Remember that you always have several options to read paid content:
Wait until all chapters of a story have been published on MFS, then use the paid trial subscription feature to “binge watch” all chapters for free.
Wait until later in the year, until I have other stories posted, then do the free trial and “binge watch” all the paid content.
Wait until later in 2025, when I plan to release an anthology of short fiction, and purchase the book (or read online).
Subscribe! Check out the monthly and yearly subscription options—the annual subscription has a 50% discount on the monthly rate!
My goals for MFS haven’t changed: I still want to bring the highest-quality writing that I can to my subscribers, and I still want to build a community of readers who enjoy mystery/thriller fiction.
Thanks for your continued support!
