When a Dallas-area priest, Father Billy Acosta, believes he's been shown a miracle by God, instead of being uplifted, ensuing weeks of doubt make him demand to see a second one. Driven crazy by what he feels is God's silence, he heads to his church's East Texas summer camp to massacre 99 kids - one at a time – to bring about Divine Intervention. Among the campers are four 14 year-olds - Phil, Mark, Faith and Maia - who are forced to come of age in the Texas woods, cut off from civilization, as their friends begin dying in horrific fashion, convinced as they are that the Devil has come to Earth and is slaughtering the faithful...

After 8 hours, I've sold 14. This coupled with the ongoing 250+ sales of "Last Tuesday" and the almost-200 sales of "Bones" means that, yes, I'll be self-publishing a print run of these ("Sunday Billy Sunday," "Last Tuesday," "Bones" and "The New Guy") through Lulu.com next year, taking their package that allows it to also be sold through Amazon.com, BN.com and available for brick-and-mortar bookstores to buy as well through catalogs.

"The New Guy" will come out next year around the time Dark Horse puts out the "Cleaners" trade as Rahsan is doing a lot of original art within "New Guy" as well and that'll be free to download on the Kindle, this to kind of tease out the paperback collection.

After that, well, it's still a hobby, but one I'm rapidly becoming addicted to.
