Blog post
The Jack Ellis novels Seeing Eye and Nightlife have been released as eBooks by Crossroad Press, this time under my own name, which is a bit strange to see. Zebra recommended the pseudonym, originally, for Nightlife, but when Seeing Eye appeared, written a year before Nightlife, it also came out under the Jack Ellis byline. These were my last two books for Zebra; well, the last two that were published. I signed another two-book deal, but Zebra shut down th3 years ago Read more -
Blog postTwo-and-a-half decades ago (can it really be that long?), as a lark, I wrote a three-day-novel with my friend George Godwin. We spent a weekend without sleep, in different rooms of my house, banging out chapters, one after the other. What can I say, it seemed like a good idea at the time!
Now, George has packaged that novel, Adios, Elvis, as a Kindle eBook which can be purchased from Amazon. The cover blurb may or may not have anything to do with the book. &nb3 years ago Read more -
Blog postIf it were left up to me, it would likely take years to get all my books ready for release as eBooks. Thanks to the efforts of Crossroads Press, there are now six of my books available in various digital formats. The latest is Mirror, Mirror, a psychological thriller originally released under the pseudonym Valerie Stephens.
Mirror, Mirror was the last book in a four book deal with Zebra Books. When I originally pitched the book, it was a horror novel, with a distinct3 years ago Read more -
Blog postCrossroads Press releases Bloody Valentine, Torment and Beaasts
Crossroads Press has released Bloody Valentine, Torment and Beasts as eBooks, now available on Amazon, Barnes and Nobel, Google Play, and for iBook. This brings to five the number of my Zebra titles that Crossroads has re-issued. Once again, I’m quite happy with the covers. Each represents the book fairly accurately, and each somehow manages to capture the flavor (read luridness) or the originals and their 1980s horror ap3 years ago Read more -
Blog postBeasts, my second novel for Zebra Books back in the 1980s, is being re-released by Crossroads Press. Date to be confirmed. In the meantime, here’s a preview of the cover, by Crossroads Press designer/artist/editor David Dodd.
I quite like the approach David took with this one. It’s a naturalistic interpretation of the story and what happens to the characters, as compared to the original Zebra Books cover from 1989, which depicts the characters as much more like werewloves, which they4 years ago Read more -
Blog postBuy Deadly Vengeance at Amazon.com.
I’m happy to say that the next of my books that Crossroads Press will release is Deadly Vengeance. The cover, by David Dodd above, is their interpretation of Cobalt, the dog in the story. Compare to the original Zebra paperback cover below. As Zebra covers go, this one was actually fairly representative of the novel, although there are no glowing eyes in the story, as such. It remains one of my favorite books, and one of my favorite Zebra covers.4 years ago Read more -

Blog postWell, it’s official. Crossroad Press will convert and publish all Stephen R. George eBooks. Crossroad, under their Macabre Ink imprint, has a long list of horror authors, including some Zebra and Leisure authors who were publishing at the same time I was. They really seem to have a handle on digital publishing and, even more important, a totally author-centric process. I’m really looking forward to working with them.
First up, Nightscape. Here5 years ago Read more -
Blog postRights to my novels reverted to me in 2014 after some back and forth with Zebra Books. I have recently started looking at publishing all my novels as eBooks. I’m currently considering a number of options to make this happen, but at this point am leaning toward working with Crossroad Press who seem to have a good track record of publishing eBooks in a variety of genres and formats.
Getting rights to the books back, however, doesn’t mean I have rights to the covers, no matter how5 years ago Read more
