THE NEXT BIG THING BLOG HOP. It’s a hoppy thing. (See what I did, there?)
What is a blog hop? Among other things it is a way for readers to discover new authors. The path to publication has always been a tough one to navigate, and even when it is attained it is usually not that fabled pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Getting seen and read after being published is growing tougher by the minute. There are so many good books out there you’ve never known existed, so many amazing authors who are just not getting the attention their skill warrants. Bookstores are closing and publishers aren’t promoting new authors the way they did in the past. Despite all of our hard work, many deserving authors are simply falling through the cracks. It rests with us, fellow authors, and us, fellow readers, to discover the talent that lies in the big blue beyond.
My place in this little hop is to tell you a bit about my book, Resonance, and to direct you to more authors who deserve a chance to be read and appreciated. Pop back in next Wednesday for my Q&A about Resonance, and for links to five other deserving authors.
So, Resonance is my book. It is a dark urban fantasy with lots of demons and magic, and one very reluctant punk hero whose name is, you guessed it, Resonance. It is currently for sale exclusively through Amazon. Print versions are in the works.
A huge thanks to one of my first-ever writing friends, Sidney Williams, for tagging me to participate. He is a talented author whose work you definitely should be reading. Give him some clicky love and check out his book, Midnight Eyes, from Crossroad Press.
See you in a week.

Walking Man, I just need to have you sitting on my shoulder all day long. I could do anything with support like that!

Resonance was not dark but i found it rather fun and was one of the few books that i reluctantly put down and couldn’t wait to get my eyes back to. As far as i am concerned Resonance smacked that one out of the park Avery.
I highly recommend it. The craftsmanship and the years it took to pull the story to complete clarity from the first to the last page just simply shines.
And that review comes from one who prefers above all other forms of reading 19th Century Russian authors. If it were not heresy i would say i liked Resonance more than i did Dostoyevsky’s The Idiot!
