My Blog

Retirement. Publishers, thank you for the many years of reading pleasure you gave me, but all good things must come to an end. Due to failing eyesight I am forced to retire. I can no longer review your books, and any that you send will be donated to the local library, unread. Do not send any more. I can only read for a couple hours every day, and this does not allow me to finish a book in reasonable time. I will be devoting time to my own books from now on, and reading on a personal level. Books that interest me. I prefer paperbacks and hardbacks, not eBooks. My eyesight has been failing the last few years, and I cannot handle hundreds of review books any more. My books are still available for review. Anyone interested in reviewing any of them, they are found in the Link to Tom’s Books On Amazon. Contact me for pdf copies at fadingshadows40@gmail.com

Collections Of New Pulp Stories


I have a number of copies on hand for book signings, and thought I would offer these to the Group while they last. Ginger started these volumes in 2005 after we closed down our FADING SHADOWS magazines due to Tom’s health. These four issues contain stories of new pulp characters, as well as new stories of original pulp characters. For a good sampling of both worlds, this is where you want to look. FADING SHADOWS really began the trend of new pulp heroes in 1995 with our genre magazines, though the interest has been there since the 1950s. We carried them into the new century where they are now taking a strong stand with a new generation of readers and fans. Postage will be going up at the end of this month, and this is likely the last you will see of $3.99 for these heavy volumes. So get your copies now before postage jumps a dollar.
