I Did a thing...
This has been quite a journey. For the last several months I have been tweaking and completely overhauling Book 1 in the Hell on Earth series as my thesis project for the Master's of Creative Writing program at National University. There are still many aspects of the story in tact, but much of it has changed.
Hope you enjoy reading it as much as I've enjoyed writing it.
I have left the original version of Paint it Black on the site if you are interested in seeing where it came from and how it changed.
This book is dedicated to my grandfather who told me I could be whatever my heart desired.

To Michelle for keeping my sense of humor on point and never letting me forget the shenanigans of our youth. To Beth, Abigail, Shawn, Jim, Lindsay and Annabelle for putting up with my weirdness and only holding it against me when it matters.
