“When a friend of mine , after having read my short stories, suggested that I write a novel, the mere thought of doing it seemed a very daunting task to me. That same friend recommended “Outskirts Press” for their track record of outstanding service to first-time authors like me who want to self-publish. Needless to say, I wasn’t disappointed. The service and guidance I received in the publishing of my book, “Burnt Sage”, was exceptional. Thank you, “Outskirts Press”, for making a seemingly complex undertaking an enjoyable experience for me.”

Product description…
Enter a world of money and passion-filled romance, of betrayal and double-dealing, of adventure and intrigue and restless disembodied souls lurking in a murky limbo between life and death. Ambitious and good-hearted but with a back story of homelessness and dashed hopes, Dawn Sage arrives in Los Angeles, with the drumbeat of expectation that her life would change for the better. A life that twists and turns through triumphs and setbacks; a fling that she hopes is rooted in love and passion and not some thrill-seeking, stress-busting roller-coaster that will fizzle after a few months. And mind-boggling encounters with ghosts, haunted houses and spirits of the known dead coming back and trying to make contact with the living. Seemingly poised and invulnerable, these encounters fill her with dread, shock and terror, giving the reader jump-scare thrills. The paranoia and X-File type mystery, like some negative psychic residue that refuses to go away, and the ecstatic torment of wild and untamed incendiary passion coalesce to bring you Burnt Sage.Outskirts Press Review
