Four Diamond Review for “Between the Lines”

Between the Lines

From Exquisite Reviews: This was a short read but it definitely delivered and kept you wanting more. I wanted to read more from J. Scott Coatsworth since reading his short story in the Candle in the Dark: Anthology. This was a fresh take for me and I enjoyed the book but I was disappointed that it wasn’t longer. J. Scott has a way of writing characters that make you want to read their minds. I know I am selfish in wanting more from him, but I really want him to write a full book. His writing style doesn’t call for … Read more

New Review of Between the Lines…

Rainbow Book Reviews

From Lena Grey at Rainbow Book Reviews: This is a brief but well written love story about two men working in politics, but with different outlooks; for Sam it’s just an internship, but for Brad, it’s where his future lies, despite some of the party’s attitudes being in conflict with his beliefs. Brad is still idealistic enough to think he can make a difference, even though the Republican party’s ideals have shifted from governing and into bargains, bribes, and donations.

Then there are the great folks at the Novel Approach: And my guest post at Inked Rainbow Reads, with the first Five Star review of the book: This was short enough I read it in about an hour. It’s a fun read with a bit of humor, a bit of drama, and a bit of magic. I loved the snappy dialog and the smooth writing style. I’ll admit, I didn’t like either Brad or Sam at first. But … Read more

Release Date!

It’s finally here! My very first stand-alone work, Between the Lines, is out. It’s hard to believe – it’s been a long time coming. I wrote my first story in fourth or fifth grade. by high school, I was working on a novel, and was sure that I was gonna be the next big thing in Fantasy and Sci Fi. Then a bunch of rejections, a coming out, and life in general intervened. Years went by. In my twenties, I tried again. And quit. In my thirties I tried yet again. And quit. But some people always believed in me. … Read more
