Sneak Peek: J. G. Wilson’s Vacation of Fear

Vacation of FearToday we have a sneak peek of J. G. Wilson’s young adult horror book, Vacation of Fear:

17-year-old Melody Miller did not want to hit the beach during Spring Break with her cousin Valery. That’s because all Valery does is party — all day and all night.

Armed with a fake ID, Valery hits the Sea Witch Nightclub, and the trouble she finds sends Melody on a journey of horror.

Can Melody save Valery from the vampire that abducted her? And who should she trust to guide her to the creature’s lair–the vampire hunter Max who used her as bait or the hot vampire Colton that saved her life?

Vacation of Fear is available in print and eBook through KDP Select on Amazon.comContinue reading “Sneak Peek: J. G. Wilson’s Vacation of Fear”

(I’m not ready to ponder the possibility that I suck as an author.) Continue reading “Tips for Better Google Search Results Using SEO Part 1 by Jen Smith”
