“This book is so fast paced and an edge of your seat thriller…” “…reminded me of Fargo…” “Shivering in Hell doesn’t read like a first novel…Glancy is a writer to watch.” Shivering in Hell is gaining steam, and here are some early reviews. Get your copy today and join the chorus! a.co/d/00EpHYiJ

Made a new graphic for Shivering in Hell, though there aren't as many new reviews as I would like. I don't mean to be a pest about it, but the best thing you can do for an indie author is to leave a review (or even a star rating) on Amazon or Goodreads! #indieauthor #booksky a.co/d/0a1cjjrB

Great example of how books get to us. Currently reading Between Two Fires, set during the black death, and I woke up in the middle of the night with an ingrown hair in my arm pit, and for a split second after I noticed the discomfort in my dazed state, my first thought was, "Oh no! Buboes!"

Bye weeks suck, especially after the way last week played out for #NotreDame. So if you want to take your mind off football altogether, I recommend getting yourself a copy of Shivering in Hell. Less than $5, has nothing to do w/ football, but just as entertaining. #GoIrish a.co/d/07qYwWJn

It’s #FridayReads time! Let’s share books and boost all signals. Repost this and let us know what to repost for you. I bring you the perfect spooky season read: monstrous babies, bloodthirsty deities, ghosts, magic, vengeance, and creatures from beyond the reef! www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0316...

Readers are comparing Shivering in Hell with some of the greats, but I truly believe it stands on its own. So if you're into "fast-paced" "edge-of-your-seat" "everything-is-f*cked" rural #noir with a "fantastic climax," please consider this #indieauthor for a read & review. a.co/d/03sfRPjM

Nothing reeks of desperation like comparing yourself to other authors. Anyway, here are some artists other people compared me to. 😂 Shivering in Hell is less than $5 on Kindle, and that sweet-looking paperback is available wherever books are sold. #Indie #booksky #noir a.co/d/0hFuwxqP

I'm flattered anytime my work is compared to a writer I respect, but I'm not sure anything tops being compared to Elmore Leonard. Maybe I should just retire now, but I'd like to sell a few more books first. Shivering in Hell is less than $5 on Kindle! #booksky #noir #crime #indie a.co/d/0cB9Nt88

Another 5-star review today! That never gets old, and every review (good or bad, short or long or whatever) makes the book visible to more new readers. So, if you've read Shivering in Hell, please consider leaving a review at Amazon &/or Goodreads. #booksky #bookreviews #noir a.co/d/07CrBEIh

Trying to convince my wife to paint significant moments from our life together in the style of sensationalized pulp book covers, so I can add titles & blurbs and hang them around our house. Admittedly, she gets stuck with most of the work on this project, but can't be helped. She can draw, I can't.

Even if I wasn't already inclined to root for the coolest logo in baseball, the Brewers remind me so much of the 2014-15 Royals that it's impossible for me not to pull for them.

Looking for a gritty neo-noir with a dark sense of humor, three-dimensional characters, and an unforgettable small town setting? Shivering in Hell has you covered. Only $4.99 on Kindle (FREE on Kindle Unlimited). #booksky #indieauthors #kindle #noir #suspense #mystery

Yikes! I need to stop sleeping in on #FridayReads day. Thanks Gabino! Counted With the Dead is Frankenstein in Detroit. A hitman is desperate to achieve absolution for his crimes. Not happening Dude. Someone's built a monster from the bodies of his very pissed off past victims.

Serling and Price discover a machine in an old house that creates ghosts. They go into business selling haunted houses. But now everyone who bought a house is missing, the machine has vanished, and they’ve opened door they desperately need to close… Only 99 cents: shorturl.at/fCEZ9

It's both flattering and a little weird when people compare your book to other authors and artists. I mean, some of these comps are pretty obvious to me, others are more surprising. But if any of these artists are your cup of tea, you might try Shivering in Hell on for size. Only $4.99 on Kindle!

As a former public librarian, it's really gratifying that Shivering in Hell has already been picked up by so many libraries. If you're close to any of these, check it out! Literally! Or grab your own copy wherever books are sold. #libraries #booksky a.co/d/080jWD6z

Admittedly, I'm not religious, but one thing I don't get is when someone dies & they're pictured with angel wings. (Especially popular with the rise of AI.) People & angels are separate beings, right? One doesn't become the other, do they? I mean, I saw The Prophecy & that wasn't how it worked.

Also you can save a buck and get free shipping if you buy it on Bookshop.org today! #booksky #noir #crime #suspense #thriller bookshop.org/p/books/shiv...

At only $4.99 on Kindle (free on #kindleunlimited), Shivering in Hell is way easier to score than any of the prizes Boris and his partners are going after within its pages. And nobody's trying to take a shot at you while you do it...hopefully. #booksky #noir #suspense #thriller a.co/d/00IoKOFk

At the bookstore yesterday & my book wasn't on the shelf. Clearly, I've been banned! Cowards didn't even have the guts to tell me. Never fear, you can still order Shivering in Hell, and support (actual) banned books (& indie authors) this week and every week! #booksky #bannedbooks a.co/d/08HbBvvm

Readers are raving about the new indie neo-noir, Shivering in Hell. So why not visit the seedy small town of Stinton, Kansas yourself, and see what all the buzz is about? The locals affectionately call it Stinkton, only there ain't that much affection involved. #fiction #noir #books a.co/d/05ugX9Ed

Who knows, your review could be in my next Shivering in Hell graphic. Unless you trash it. That's your right, of course, but I probably won't use it. #booksky #crimefiction #noir #suspense #mystery

Writing a review is a hassle, but they really do make a difference in how a book is seen. So, if you've read Shivering in Hell, please consider leaving feedback on Amazon or Goodreads. A star rating is great, a few words is even better! #booksky a.co/d/062630Vf www.goodreads.com/book/show/25...
