I’ve got a bit of buzz going on with my supernatural mystery writing these days, so here’s a quick update.
After Winning an Eric Hoffer Book Award, Night Sea Journey, A Tale of the Supernatural just got a review from U.S. Review of Books.
“Stunning and absorbing plot on par with—if not better than—a Dan Brown novel. Truly an outstanding read, Night Sea Journey is one book that is hard to put down!” You can read more at U.S. Review of Books here.
The Dazzling Darkness is holding its Amazon Kindle Best Seller status, in ghost genre, for 14 weeks now. This story has really connected to a healthy number of ghost story lovers.
Midwest Book Review ★★★★★ “Paula Cappa is a master of the metaphysical mystery genre…an extraordinary and original storyteller of the first rank. Very highly recommended.”
I have three short stories available on Amazon Kindle (99 cents), Hildie at the Ghost Shore; The Haunting of Jezebeth; Between the Darkness and the Dawn. See links and book covers to the right.
What’s coming up?
The Magic of the Loons, a short story of magical realism, a little bit sexy and a little bit fantasy. Will release on Amazon in September for 99 cents. This story was previously published at Dark Gothic Resurrected Magazine.
And my third novel, Greylock, is in it final stages of editorial revisions (5 years’ work). Music, the supernatural, and the power of desire. Murder, lies, betrayal, romance—and the phantasm.

another’s voice, another’s soul.” — Joyce Carol Oates
“Greylock” looks intriguing (says a Bay State resident), so I downloaded “Dazzling Darkness” to see where you’re coming from. So, in the same local vein (an expression that, frankly, is more humorous when discussing vampire stories), here’s a ghost story set in Cambridge, Mass.: http://sillyverse.com/short-stories/death-and-professor-appleton/
