Here is a quick update on what's happening here in Raleigh, NC on the "Jon and Eileen Show."
JON BATSON: THE WRITER
Jon is busy writing his next story/novel? We'll see where it goes.
Nina Knows the Night is at our editor Alice Osborn. NKTK follows the adventures of Nina Richardson a mild-mannered law school dropout who becomes a kick-butt heroine after innocently acquiring a metal case filled with military-like weapons. Determined to knock out the growing crime in her formerly posh-turned-run-down urban neighborhood she discovers her superpowers to be her own inner-strength and purpose.
The Trasaron Chronicles is now available and will be on Amazon and others sites soon. This character driven sci-fi novel explores basic issues concerning survival, interpersonal relationships and quality of life when many of Earth's population are displaced elsewhere. Always riveting and often humorous, Trasaron captivates the reader in an ever-evolving tale set on an inhospitable world.
