What Lies Within

“There are four kinds of Homicide: felonious, excusable, justifiable, and praiseworthy.”—Ambrose Bierce

A tortured past can shape a soul, that soul can shape the future. The system failed Tyler McDermitt. Now, he and his brother have vowed to protect misfortunate youth from a similar fate—or at least make those responsible, pay. The McDermitt brothers, victims of child abuse and molestation, escaped their hell and have decided to clean up after the failings of a flawed justice system.

They have begun in their home town of Boston, but their designs are not limited to one city. This is just the beginning. The rough streets of Dorchester, in south Boston, have hardened two aspiring vigilantes and prepared them for a mission, a mission they feel is their duty, and their duty will not be easy. One brother has a good heart, a conscience, and burning compassion, which has…

What Lies!

Disjointed Jottings by Robert Smith (A.K.A. TyCobbsTeeth)

I have some exciting updates!

I completed What Lies Within, edited it, edited it, edited it (mowed, mulched, and raked), and then ran it through some beta-readers. It’s ready 🙂

Last month I signed with an agent who I had been talking with for a while. It’s a fantastic agency based in the U.K. and headed by Keith Chawgo. They specialize in horror and psychological thrillers, in fact, they’re the only international horror literary agency.

The MediaBitch™ Literary Agency was founded with a vision to get dark fiction books into the marketplace, books to scare and horrify the reader and to imbed themselves into the human psyche. Books can change the individual from the inside out and individual consciousness can transform the world.

My experience working with the close-knit community of MBLA staff and authors has been amazing, it’s a family and I feel privileged to be a part…

Acclaim for SOCIETY for SUPPER;

Bill Ward’s review  5 of 5 stars
March 20, 2015

This is a fun action adventure set in the near future when the world has a terrible food shortage and as a result society is falling apart. Ben and his family initially are able to barricade their home and fight off criminals looking to steal food. However, they decide to set off on a journey to find greater security at a camp protected by soldiers. The main part of the story is about their journey and the people they encounter, some good but mostly violent and after their food supplies.
The action is non stop and the background of a crumbling society provides an interesting commentary on mankind and the desperate lengths people will go to in order to try and survive.
This is a real page turner and I look forward to reading more by this author.

J.N. Colon’s review — 5 of 5 stars
March 24, 2015

A heart pounding adventure full of action, suspense, and chilling human behavior. I literally had goosebumps.
Society for Supper describes our near future where a drought has caused major food shortages throughout the world. When the ‘implausible’ happens and it spreads to North America most are left panicked and unprepared. A good majority of people adopt a brutal kill or be killed mentality that deeply affects the daring Donnelly family. They are eventually forced from their home by looters who progressively become more violent, beginning a dangerous journey for safety.
The writing style is both professional and natural, allowing the story to seamlessly flow. The imagery is vivid, effortless, and descriptive, immersing the audience in a chilling, intense world. I would classify this as a true horror story because unlike vampires and ghouls this is a very possible, terrifying concept.
I would highly recommend to anyone looking for excitement and adventure with a sprinkling of terror. I will definitely read more from this author.
Guillermo Serrano’s review — 5 of 5 stars

What would you do if the end of the world arrives?
Do you like dystopian novels such as The Road, The Walking Dead, Y:The Last Man? If so, you are in luck because this is the book you were looking for.
First, I would like to congratulate the author because the way he writes. His writing is very direct, intense and professional. Second, the story is as great as Cormac McCarthy’s The Road, for real.
In Society for Supper the world is dying because a severe and worldwide drought. As you can imagine then, food is scarce and people will do everything – trust me when I say “everything” – to survive.
The book tells you the story of Ben Donnelly and his family, a normal family that will have to work together and support each other so that they can survive the inhospitable place that has become America. I liked very much the characters that Ben and his family met during this running adventure…not all of them are how you believe they are at first sight…and I said enough…
The chapters that I liked the most were the ones related to the woods…some parts gave me goose bumps. A totally must have and hoping the author to continue the story with a second part.
