about me

Thanks to those who read, gave constructive criticism, and commented on MARGARET ETHEL and HAKTAW HEART.

NUMBERED is about 3/4 of the way done. Hope to find a YA critique partner or two.

Please don't pretend like you've read something when you haven't or liked something when you didn't. Bullshit will make the petunias grow, but doesn't help us as writers.

NUMBERED

Bill Scott

Like most teenagers, Jacob Palmer thinks he is invincible. Unlike most teenagers, there is a woman who wants to harvest his soul.



Kids have been disappearing from Little Rock as far back as Jacob Palmer could remember. When it happens to a boy in his class, the Palmers pack-up and move to the country, unwittingly putting them within arm's reach of the killer.

Something dark is afoot in their new town. First came the voices in Jacob's ears, then the numbers on people's faces. When no one believes the numbers are real, Jacob is left to figure things out on his own.

Obsessed with trying to solve the mystery of the numbers, Jacob makes one bad decision after another. Unraveling the truth will either send Jacob to the mental ward or into the hands of a killer.

Hey Ivan, I popped in to read your latest. People either love or hate my reviews. I don't focus on what's great, but what I had trouble with. If I had to sum it up, I'd say it felt like you were trying too hard to scare us, I read a great post today about building tension. Here's the link if you ... view book

Your book has been mentioned quite a bit in the forums, so I stopped in for a read. Warning, I am not well read in SciFI. You are obviously a talented writer. I only pointed out the places that gave me pause. I think that's the most valuable information we can have as writers. Your readership may no... view book

YARG 14 Did Galaxy drown or short circuit from the water? I get it. I just can't get the question out of my head every time i read 'drowning.' I guess he was becoming human-like so maybe he did drown. Might be something Columbia would ponder. Like Theory of Politics - nice one. "She says s... view book

YARG Kudos. I see you have tons of fans and are doing quite well on the charts. Honestly, I had difficulty reading this. I guess it's just a style thing. I wanted to go through and strike out all the unnecessary words and descriptions and just get to the story. I almost didn't send this, but ... view book
