And because I appreciate my 5,000+ Friends of the Flock more than spaghetti 🍝 (trust me, this is saying a lot), I’m delighted to offer all subscribers, existing and new, a special bonus: you can choose to read either the opening chapters of Chained Birds, or my current work-in-progress, The Jacklighter (set for a 2026 release), or both! You’ll find the freebies in the welcome email and an archived post you can access on Substack at any time.
You’ll also get direct links to my new YouTube channel shorts and videos related to my true crime books 🎥
