Ryta...and Sheena

I've started working on another Ryta the Jungle Girl story. And unlike the recent Morenci & Lynn, which took place in Ryta's universe--without Ryta--this next story will have Ryta and the regular cast back in action.

I am also planning a sequel to M&L, because the more the merrier. I enjoyed writing that one, and would like to see more adventures of Morenci & Lynn. But I actually miss Ryta, and am glad to be back writing her again.

I thought showing screen grabs of Tanya Roberts as Sheena would be good for this upcoming book announcement.

Despite its flaws, I always liked the Sheena movie. Tanya looked just like how I would imagine Sheena would be, and she really gave the part her all.

Tanya went barefoot throughout the whole film, and was even chained up at one point.

I'll keep you updated on the progress of the latest Ryta book, and will alert you as to exactly when it comes out.

Morenci & Lynn

My latest book, Morenci & Lynn is out. I took a pair of characters from the Ryta book series that I'm writing and gave them their own adventure. Morenci and Lynn, having escaped the craziness of the Malakan as seen in Ryta the Jungle Girl and the Wrath of Malek, strike out on their own in a port city called Calico.

Morenci just wants to take the first boat down to Storm-Haven, so she can finally get her revenge on Mother Midnight, but she's stunned to see a pair of slavers arrive in town with a newly captured prize: Lynn. Both women get caught up in an action/adventure tale where they have to dodge dinosaurs, slavers, and the mysterious employers who hired them. You can get your copy of Morenci & Lynn right now, right here.

Morenci & Lynn

My latest book, Morenci & Lynn, is finished. The first draft was completed a week ago, and I have now completed the rewriting/editing aspect of it. The book is now locked down, and I'm about to start working on the cover.

Morenci and Lynn are a pair of characters from the Ryta the Jungle Girl Universe who I decided to spin off into their own adventure. It's an action/adventure about the both of them as they try to survive to the next moment. I'm planning to publish this very soon, within the next week or so. Keep it here, and I'll give you the updates as they occur.

Note: the picture I used above is from Conan the Barbarian (1982).

Morenci & Lynn

I'm working on a new book involving two characters from the universe of Ryta the Jungle Girl. They are Morenci and Lynn Sutherland, who team up during an adventure on their own.

It takes place in the same Lost World universe (loaded with dinosaurs and danger and bondage) as the Ryta stories, and will be a direct sequel to the last Ryta book Ryta and the Wrath of Malek.

No actual title yet, other than Morenci & Lynn. The writing is going well, and I hope to have this done soon. There will also be more adventures with Ryta and the gang, as well as with Black Mantis, my superhero. I'll keep you updated.

Black Mantis

Maggie Ashburn is the Black Mantis. Armed with her super strength, she fights crime and injustice in St. Brunson, the half sunken city on the edge of the ocean. But one such enemy has proven to be an imposing threat. The Acolyte Group is a corporation that Maggie suspects is a cover for a criminal organization that owns the police force, and much more, in St. Brunson.

With each passing day, the Acolyte Group only grows stronger and more powerful, becoming such a threat that Black Mantis, along with her friends Sadie and Lou, face a long, dark struggle to stop them.

Black Mantis, like my other books, has foot fetish and bondage. It's the first book in my new superhero series, available right now on the Kindle. You can get it right here.

Ryta is on the way

Hello, need a hand? Will a foot suffice?

Here ya go.

I'm using these vidcaps from Sheena (1984), starring the late, great Tanya Roberts, to announce something: I'm working on the new Ryta The Jungle Girl Book.

I started writing it in December, and it's going very smoothly. I hope to have it done in April--at least that's the month I'm shooting for.

I really missed seeing Ryta, Lacey, and the whole gang aboard the Leviathan. Although I'm not sure how happy they are to see me, because I've been putting them through their paces so far in this new book.

The very first Ryta book can be found here. And the most recent book can be gotten (???) right here.

I'll keep you up to date on the status of the latest book.

In The Home Stretch

The latest Ryta The Jungle Girl book is almost done. The manuscript is in the home stretch. I'm still in the process of writing, but I will be finished with the first draft soon, then the editing/rewrites of the second draft will begin. I'm now shooting for a late March/early April release. Keep it here for all of the up to date news on Ryta.

The Latest Ryta book is done

Just wanted to let you know that I've finished the first draft of the latest Ryta the Jungle Girl book: Ryta the Jungle Girl and the Sorcerer. I still have some rewriting/editing to do (as well as creating a cover), but the hard part of creating something out of nothing is done. I expect this latest addition to the Ryta saga to be ready by the July Fourth Weekend.

Keep it here for the latest news.

Ryta The Jungle Girl is on her way

Just wanted to let you know that I am still working on the latest Ryta the Jungle Girl book. The writing is going extremely well, and I plan to have it ready by the end of this month.

I'd be lying if I said it had been easy writing during these fascinating and frightening times that we're all living through, but I kept at it--writing a little bit every day--and I slowly learned that living in Ryta's world has kept me calm enough to handle ours.

I've learned to not be ashamed to escape into a book, movie, or TV show every now and then. Just think of it as being a part of your self care.

I'll keep you posted on the details of the latest Ryta book right here.

White Cargo

This is Hedy Lamarr as Tondelayo from the 1942 film White Cargo. I've yet to actually see this one, so I don't know if Hedy is dressed like this all the time. But I think she wears the 'jungle girl' look very well in this picture.

Speaking of Jungle Girls, my latest Ryta the Jungle Girl adventure is plugging along nicely. I've worked out the main villain, and the writing's porceeding even more smoothly.

The latest Ryta book

I just started writing the new Ryta the Jungle Girl book. I just wrote the first scene. To celebrate the start of a new Ryta adventure, I thought I'd post some pictures of a bound, barefoot jungle girl: Shanna the She-Devil, created by writer Phillip Nicolas Seuling (under the name Carole Seuling) and penciler George Tuska.

My Ryta books have a barefoot jungle girl and her friends fighting for survival in a lost world filled with dinosaurs, ancient technology from Atlantis, and non-stop action and danger.

You can get the very first Ryta book right here.

And the very latest Ryta book, published just a few weeks ago, can be seen right here.

I'll keep you posted on the status of the latest book right here.

Ryta the Jungle Girl and the Hunters of Pasha Tem

The latest Ryta the Jungle Girl book, The Hunters of Pasha Tem, is now available!

Obadiah, lord and master of the forbidden city of Pasha Tem, has sent a team of warriors led by Stryker to hunt down Ryta. They are to bring her back as a bound prize for Obadiah.

Yet Ryta already has her hands full dealing with a blood cult in Storm Haven, and as if that wasn't enough, she also receives horrifying news out of Kingsland. Will Ryta manage to survive all of this, as well as a team of hunters determined to bring her back as a slave?

The new Ryta book

I've finished the first draft of the latest Ryta book, and will begin the second draft (editing and re-writing) very soon (like right now). I plan to have this newest book in the Ryta saga out just before Christmas. Keep it here for the latest news.

You can get the very first Ryta adventure, the one that begins the whole saga, right here.

Sheena 1984

I recently realized that this year is the 35th anniversary of the release of Sheena, starring former Charlie's Angel Tanya Roberts as the heroic jungle girl.

This was the first (and only) big budget jungle girl movie to be released in theaters (which was where I first saw it when it opened)>

I thought Tanya Roberts was picture perfect as Sheena. She looked just like I would imagine Sheena to be, and really gave the part her all.

She went barefoot throughout the whole film, and was even chained up at one point.

I've been working on the latest Ryta the Jungle Girl book, and re-watching Sheena has helped me to recharge during the writing.

The Latest Ryta book will be out next month (December 2019). I'll keep you updated on the progress and alert you as to exactly when the new Ryta book comes out. Happy 35th, Sheena!

X-Women in trouble!

I didn't know this (until now) but several of the female members of the X-Men had their own adventure where they were captured by pirates on a jungle island. The name of the book is X-Women. I must get this.

Looks like Ryta might be right at home in this place. Speaking of Ryta the Jungle Girl, I have just started writing the next book in the series. I have about three thousand words so far, but we're on our way. More updates to come regarding Ryta right here.

Update: You can get a copy of this X-Women book at this link.

Ryta the Jungle Girl and the Deadly Stalkers

The Amstrad are marching through the jungles, seizing everyone and everything in sight, and forcing Ryta and her family aboard the Leviathan to consider the ways that they can deal with this threat. However, a new menace arises within the jungles, an unstoppable, inhuman force that threatens all life. How will Ryta defend against an enemy that is seemingly invincible?

The latest Ryta the Jungle Girl book, Ryta the Jungle Girl and the Deadly Stalkers, is now out. You can get your copy right here.

The latest Ryta book

The formatting process for the latest Ryta the Jungle Girl book is almost done. And I'm also just putting the finishing touches on the cover, as well. The new Ryta book--Ryta The Jungle Girl and the Deadly Stalkers--will be released on May 3, 2019.

You can get the first Ryta book right here.

You can get the most recent Ryta book, The Sentinels of Pasha Tem, right here.

I will keep you posted, as always.

News about Ryta

I finished the first draft of the latest Ryta book. There's a lot of work left to do, but the hard part--creating it from scratch--is done. Next up is the re-writing/editing process. If all goes smoothy, the newest book will be on sale by late April (which is just about a month from now). Keep it here for the latest news about the Ryta saga.

The first Ryta book can be gotten here.

Music to write Ryta by

I'm deep into writing the next Ryta the Jungle Girl book, and am about two thirds of the way through the first draft. One big help for me while writing this EPIC book is listening to the soundtrack from another epic story, The Lord of the Rings, by Howard Shore.

Lately, I've been playing and replaying the music from the second LOTR film, The Two Towers, which more than fits the epic scope that I'm shooting for. The new book is going very well, and I plan to have it done by next month (April 2019). Keep it here for the latest news.

The new Ryta The Jungle Girl book

I am pleased to announce that the latest Ryta the Jungle Girl book is now available for sale!

In her latest adventure, Ryta discovers that the long-lost temple of Pasha Tem, a storehouse of knowledge and technology for the people of Atlantis, has been found.

Unwilling to let the highly advanced tech and weapons stored at Pasha Tem to fall into the wrong hands--like Mother Midnight, or the Gargoyles--Ryta leads a group of warriors to try and beat any of her enemies from reaching the abandoned temple.

But what Ryta doesn't realize is that Pasha Tem isn't abandoned. The sentinels of Pasha Tem are willing to guard their home with their very lives, if need be.

And they are ready and waiting for Ryta.
