RUNNING FROM THE PAST

What pad?

Wattpad!

For those of you not in the know, keep reading.

Here’s what Wattpad is, in their own words, from their home page:

Wattpad is the world's largest community for discovering and sharing stories. It's a new form of entertainment connecting readers and writers through storytelling, and best of all, it's entirely free. With thousands of new stories added every day, an incredibly active community of readers, and the ability to read on your computer, phone, or tablet, Wattpad is the only place that offers a truly social, and entirely mobile reading experience.

This month is Whodunit Month at Wattpad, and they’re featuring about sixty curated mystery, suspense, and thiller works.

I’m happy to say that I’m participating with a brand new, never-before-seen novel called RUNNING FROM THE PAST.

Here’s the “flap-copy” description:

Some might call it kidnapping. Colby Walker views it as salvation.

When Colby Walker gets to know his teenage son’s friend Jess, he spots the signs in short order: downcast eyes, passivity, angry red welts marching across the boy’s back. He understands what they mean because he’d been that boy, many years ago.

He’d suffered in silence, too.

Can Walker stand by and let Jess’s torment continue, leaving the boy’s future in the hands of the so-called authorities, the ones who had done nothing to help him during his own tortured childhood?

Hell no.

If you’re not currently on Wattpad, what are you waiting for? If you are a Wattpad reader/writer, I hope you’ll check out my new novel and let me know what you think about it. That’s one of the great things about Wattpad—the ability to make comments and interact with a vibrant community of readers and writers!
