Amazon vine reviewers hailed [the draft of] (Marvin's) World of Deadheads as "a fresh take on the traditional ghost story, and it's handled with a great deal of style."
And, "Marvin and Tommy are fun guys; I would totally hang out with them. This one's a lot of fun."
Publisher's Weekly said, "The author captures interest immediately when Marvin, a 28-year-old mensch living in Dayton, Ohio, is killed by a bus in front of his condo..."

(Marvin's) World of Deadheads will be available in the Fall of 2012 in both print and ebook.

(Marvin's) World of Deadheads


(Marvin's) World of Deadheads is the first installment of the planned Deadheads series of books. Once you get started, you'll be hooked on Marvin and his ghostly gang.

You can get a sneak peek at Marvin by visiting my official website: Paul Atreides and browse to the Sneak Peek tab.

Really want to get hooked? Got a Kindle? You can read the first (approx) 5,000 words on Amazon right now! How is that possible you ask? Marvin has advanced into Round 3 of the Amazon Breakout Novel Award contest for 2012 and he'd love you to visit. It's quick. It's easy. It's fun! As one contest reviewer has already stated: "Marvin is a lot more fun now that he's dead and I would totally hang out with these guys!"

Go there NOW for your free download.

Once you've read the excerpt, go back and leave a review. Tell Marvin whether you'd like to know if he succeeds in his efforts to kill Jenna or not.

  2. I have a Nook also, can't use a Kindle book. If you really want people to rate it, how about putting he first 5000 words up in a more universal format, e.g. PDF?

  3. Hi Eddie -

    Thanks for stopping by the blog. It's terrific to have Marvin meet new people and I appreciate you taking the time! I thank you and becca both for letting me know about the Nook issue.

    There are two ways to read a Kindle version without having a Kindle. Amazon has a FREE Kindle App for PC...OR the Nook has Kindle Apps available for download so you can then purchase any Kindle book available and read it on your Nook.

    Unfortunately, the contest rules prohibit me from providing the excerpt. But, to assist everyone who may be in the same position, I'm going to do a post providing the App information.

  4. Actually it turned out to be easier for me to just use KindleForMac on my iMac. Thanks for the pointer about Kindle Apps for Nook ... will check those out later.
