What’s HIDDEN GYPSY MAGIC ABOUT?
The Salem Wildlife Sanctuary is Gwen Taylor’s life work. Her Irish Gypsy heritage provides a hidden talent she uses to help the creatures under her care. But even her magical skills can’t help new rescues in dire need of veterinary care.
The opportunity of signing on as the vet for Gwen’s sanctuary dropped into Brock Scutter’s lap after he expanded his practice to include wildlife. The personal attraction he and Gwen experience is undeniable the more their professional and personal lives collide.
Touring the only “non-haunted” house in Salem they both feel a spark of magic. A trip to his family’s cabin uncovers a heritage he didn’t know existed. If they want a future together, it means facing the consequences of awakening hidden Gypsy magic and a race against the clock to correct past wrongs.

How about a sneak peek between the pages of HIDDEN GYPSY MAGIC?
“It feels like all the air is being sucked out of this room.” His brother’s face turned ashen white as Beth’s ghostly form took shape in the center of the room.
Brock moved to the little group gathered and glanced at the grandfather clock standing in the hallway. Fifteen minutes until midnight. The witching hour on All Hallows Eve. A nervous chuckle rose up in his throat. How cliche. His brother would be a believer after this night.
He cleared his throat and wrapped an arm around Gwen’s waist. “Can we help you, Beth?” Misfit’s howling could be heard clearly from the upstairs bedroom.
“No, but I hope we can help you.” Ghost Beth glanced back at the painting and sadly shook her head. “The ghost of Judge John Hathorne stands outside ready to curse or worse all those involved in sullying his reputation. The house stands between all of you…protecting—” The ghost’s hand and arm made a sweeping motion toward their group, “— against his magic ability.”
A soft almost hysterical giggle burst from Gwen. “Doesn’t he know that by his actions this night, he has not only outed himself but proved the rumors and article are true?”
“I don’t believe he’s considered that point.” Beth’s ghostly grim face twitched into a half-smile. “He’s bent on revenge, but apparently had trouble passing through the veil this evening.” She pointed to the clock and then laid a finger on her lips.

He waved a hand toward the beach behind the cabin. “Our land stretches from where we turned onto the gravel road, all the way to the beach and several acres in both directions.” Spreading his arms wide, he motioned from side to side. “We can take a hike after we get settled.”
“I’d like that.” She jumped off the running board and opened the back door to the pickup tugging out her bag.
“Let me get that.” He rushed around the front of the truck.
Stubbornly she held onto the bag. “I’ve got it. You get yours and the door. We’ll have to come back out for the rest of the stuff.” She grinned up at him. “Since you do have the key.”
Suitcase in hand, he stopped to finger one of the gas lanterns, then sprinted to the door and opened it. Inside a little fire burned merrily in the fireplace, not a speck of dust in sight. The kitchen table was set for two and the aroma of lobster stew wafted through the air. “What the heck?”
Peering over his shoulder, Gwen gasped. “Someone expecting you?”

Neurogarden by Bryon Vaughn an Interview
Give a warm welcome to Bryon Vaughn, Author of Neurogarden. Pull up a chair, grab a drink of your choice from the cooler, a Chocolate Chip or Peanut Butter cookie from the plate. Psstt.. don’t forget to enter the Rafflecopter at the end of ttis post. Let’s find out a little about Bryon and his Science Fiction, techno-thriller.
What are four things you can’t live without?
Like most people, I am attached to my mobile phone. I can’t imagine life without it. Since my life revolves around computing, I would also have to say my MacBook Pro, though any computer would do. I absolutely must have paper notebooks and a good pen. Sure, I can take notes on a computer, but it just doesn’t feel like it matters unless I write it with my own hand, plus it is a pain in the ass to sketch or scribble with a keyboard or a trackpad.
Finally, though I don’t consider them to be things, I would we lost without my family. They are my touchstones to reality, and always keep me grounded and focused on what is truly important. In fact, despite what I said earlier, I could actually do without all of those things as long as I had them.
What is your favorite television show?
With streaming, I just watch whatever shows up in the lists, but I can say the last show that I remember being must-watch appointment television was Dexter. I adore that show, and despite the main character being a sociopathic serial killer, I think I identified with Dexter more than any other character that I can recall.
If you could be any character, from any literary work, who would you choose to be? Why?
I’m sure if you asked me this question every day for the next week, my answer would change, but in the moment, I would say I would like to be Guy Montag from Fahrenheit 451. He was a simple man, incurious, and good at his job, which sadly was burning books. What makes him so interesting to me is how he comes to love the very thing that he is trained to destroy. In this day and age where books can be found in boxes on the side of the street, discarded to make room for a new television, or some other electronic device, it is inspiring to picture a place where people would risk their lives to protect the written word.
What have you got coming soon for us to look out for?
Neurogarden is the first book in the NeuralTech Corporation series. Book two is well underway, and the working title is Necrogarden. The world has taken a dark turn, and the stakes are even higher in the second book. I can’t wait to hear what readers will think of this one.
What books or authors have most influenced your own writing?
I read a lot of different genres, and while I tend toward science fiction and horror, I also like the literary classics. I studied English at U.C. Berkeley, so I have a foundation in the canon, such as Shakespeare, Joyce, Milton, but I also like more modern classic authors such as Toni Morrison and Margaret Atwood.
As for influence on my own writing, I would say that I draw from writers like Clive Barker, William Gibson, and maybe a little Blake Crouch.
Now tell us a little about Neurogarden.
Where can you run when there is no place to hide?
Brenna Patrick is a brilliant technologist specializing in neural-cognitive functions and AI. She has cracked the code to solve one of the most troublesome problems in the field, and turned that into the multi-billion dollar NeuralTech Corporation.
Working quietly with the U.S. Department of Defense, NeuralTech is poised to leapfrog the competition with a revolutionary system for tracking people, starting with the world’s most wanted terrorists. But there are only so many terrorists in the world, so who’s next?
When a pair of Columbia graduate students, Jenny and Leo, stumble on the dark secret of NeuralTech’s success, it kicks off a tense game of cat and mouse. As they fight to defeat the powerful forces arrayed against them, nothing less than the fate of humanity hangs in the balance…
NEUROGARDEN is a roller-coaster ride of a thriller, one that will have readers pondering the nature of memory, and of reality, long after they’ve read the last page.
How about a sneak peek between the pages of Neurogarden?
Halfway through her coffee, Brenna’s usual routine of morning news about the weather or the latest political storm was interrupted by a story on the previous day’s event at NeuralTech.
“According to sources, yesterday, in an impressive display of technical wizardry, the notorious Ethiopian strongman, Azim Dibaba, was eliminated by the U.S. military in partnership with NeuralTech. Stay tuned for exclusive video footage from the NeuralTech facility coming up after the break.”
With a dismissive wave of her hand, the television powered off, and she downed the last of her coffee. Explicit rules about keeping cameras from the Observation Deck were put in place to stop this kind of leaked footage, not so much to keep it a secret, but to control how the message was released. There was no way NeuralTech would have built such an elaborate display of lights and gadgetry if the world was never going to see what they were doing. The fanfare was all a show, a carnival for the masses to distract from the visceral heart of what they were witnessing. Hell, they used to run the ops from a small conference room in the basement of NeuralTech HQ with two laptops and an iPad. The spectacle was created for virality, but she wanted the first glimpses to be better than some shaky cell phone video from a reporter behind glass.

About the author:
Ever since reading Douglas Adams back in my formative years, I have had an interesting relationship with humor, science fiction, and technology. My first computer was a TI-99/4A, so yeah, I’m old, but only until scientists have cracked the code on transplanting our brains into shiny new vessels.
My body may be showing signs of wear, but I’m keeping my brain tight.
When I am not dreaming of far off worlds and writing, I am living a semi-normal life working in New York City, and watching movies with my wife and her spastic cat, Moss.

A little about Hidden Gypsy Magic:
Discover the consequences of awakening hidden Gypsy magic!
The Salem Wildlife Sanctuary is Gwen Taylor’s life work. Her Irish Gypsy heritage provides a hidden talent she uses to help the creatures under her care. But even her magical skills can’t help new rescues in dire need of veterinary care.
The opportunity of signing on as the vet for Gwen’s sanctuary dropped into Brock Scutter’s lap after he expanded his practice to include wildlife. The personal attraction he and Gwen experience is undeniable the more their professional and personal lives collide.

If they want a future together, it means facing the consequences of awakening hidden Gypsy magic and a race against the clock to correct past wrongs.
A sneak peek between the pages of Hidden Gypsy Magic: The hook.
“This house may not have a history of magic, but I’d bet it’s magical. . You’re going to put an offer in. Right?”
“As I said before, it may be completely out of my price range.”
“I have a feeling the house has been waiting for you.” Gwen flung her hand to her mouth, her face flushed, and her gaze swiveled to him. “I don’t know what made me say that.”
Looking thoughtful, he grinned. “Since the day I stumbled upon Pepper’s secret — then discovered that you and I share the gift or curse of gypsy blood, things have been different—” Pausing, he shoved his hand in his jean’s pocket and jingled the change in his pocket. “I’ve been different. It’s as if knowing magic exists awakened something in me.”
“Join the club. Years ago Pepper made a believer out of me. In fact, there were times I wished—never mind. Whether it was my outlook or as you said magic awakened. But to be fair, I’ve always had what I called a sixth sense with animals, attuned to their feelings, almost their thoughts, fears, that kind of thing. Pepper called it my talent. But as we became close friends, I noticed other abilities… you’ll think I’m crazy.”
“Try me.” He moved closer to her and the front door banged open. Quickly he rushed to the top of the stairs.
