Second Draft of Dun Completed!

I've now got a proposal-ready draft of my modern horror novel, Dun, and will begin pitching it this week to agents.

Combining Japanese-style viral horror with the creeping dread of Robert W. Chambers’ The King in Yellow, Dun posits the question: What if years of subliminal advertising could be subverted to drive you mad? An unwitting couple, struggling to determine the future of their long-distance relationship, discovers the answer on a cruise ship when a video that drives people crazy is unleashed. It’s up to the FBI to get to the bottom of the conspiracy before the Brotherhood of the Yellow Sign releases the video on its final target: the world’s biggest conference center in Salt Lake City.

Special thanks to Fred Durbin, author of Dragonfly, who gave the book a thorough edit. Wish me luck!
