Project.

If you follow me on Instagram (and if not, why not?), you will have seen the occasional “episode” post.

Turns out, I have inadvertently begun an episodic first draft flash fiction project. It’s been fun.

I’ve put up four episodes so far. I post when the fancy strikes me, usually once every week or every other week. I take photos when I’m out and use those as inspiration for an episode of this short story that I’m making up as I go along.

I don’t edit much, mainly for space and if my phone autocorrects anything incorrectly.

Briefly, the story is about people stranded on an island filled with strange creatures and weird happenings.

Now that I am beginning to amass more, I’ve decided I need a place to catalog them.

Spoiler alert: it’s here. This is the place.

Check out the This Island Episodes tab to read more.

Let me know what you think.

Turning Point
by K.M. Smith
Genre: Paranormal Urban Fantasy
Adam is the resident vampire in a small college town in Michigan. It’s the same scenario every night: wander campus, snag a co-ed for dinner, get home before dawn. Rinse. Repeat–until an irresistible new professor appears. From the shadows, he follows her every footstep, lurking, until he witnesses a tragic accident. As life drains from the object of his desire, he is faced with an impossible choice: Should he intervene or not?
22 years later, Alice Peterson is well on her way to graduating from college. Her life and goals are set, and her future is bright. But Alice meets Adam and a tempestuous wind portends a different fate. Thrust into a world she thought to be fictitious, Alice must rely on wit, cunning and newfound powers if she hopes to survive. Adam will do what he must to keep Alice from learning too much about her past, including the unthinkable.
No good deed goes unpunished as familial bonds are pushed to their limit and new relationships are tested. Filled with action and bloodlust-fueled drama, read on to unlock the mystery when Alice reaches her Turning Point.
**Only .99 cents!! **

It’s Sunday Funday.

Hi friends.

Have you missed my Monday posts? Life has sped up lately and the days just fly by. How is that time can move so fast when we’re all stuck at home with “nothing to do?”

But, alas, I’m here now. And, I have some fun information.

Starting Friday-ish (I’ll firm up details later this week and share them here), I am going to run a contest in support of the paperback release of Turning Point. It’s exciting stuff!

There will be mini-games and chances to win a fun gift casket filled with all sorts of vampire-y goodies and of course a signed copy of Turning Point.

Here’s a tiny glimpse of some of the goodies.

Vampire-y goodies!

The contest will be run from my Facebook page, K.M. Smith, Author, so be sure to check it out and check back often for your chance to win the gift casket!

Rules and details will be provided prior to the start of the contest.

See ya later!

What Happened to Monday?

Not sure if you realize this, dear readers, but it’s Tuesday today. I know, I’ve let you down. You rely on my weekly posts to remind you that it’s time to get up and put your work pants on. I’m sorry to have failed you this week.

But never fear, your Monday update is here. On Tuesday.

Who’s really counting the days anymore anyway?

So, this week: Busy. Marketing plans. Content creation. Book finishing. Prizes.

More on that last one later.

Anyone else have 24 tabs open on their computer? Just me?

Alright then. As you were.

See you next week. On Monday. Pinky swear.

And if you need a book to read to hold you over until then, might I suggest Turning Point?
