Press Release
Miami Lakes, Florida, October 10, 2005, Rest in Peace, a horror novel written by Author Bill Metz, has been released. Even though this book is a work of fiction, Bill Metz has taken some of his real-life paranormal experiences and incorporated them into the story.
Bill Metz decided one day after the death of his father in 2004, that he wanted to write a book. Bill Metz has always had a love for the paranormal and ghost stories. Bill Metz sat down at his computer one morning, and the next thing he knew, it was dark outside and he had been able to write the first thirty pages of the book. Bill Metz utilized his own paranormal experiences and other real-life experiences to write the book. The book cover is a real paranormal photograph taken by Bill Metz. Do you believe in ghosts?
One of the happiest days of his life, was when he realized that he finished the book. After some encouragement from his wife, he sent his completed stories into some publishing companies. After a couple of months had gone by, PublishAmerica, based in Frederick, Maryland, gave this unknown first-time author the opportunity that would stay with him for the rest of his life!
Rest in Peace, by Bill Metz is available at all the major on-line retailers and bookstores across the United States and 5 countries internationally. You can find the book at Barnes and Noble, Borders, Amazon, Waldenbooks, Books-a-million, Buy.com and at Target. There are numerous other resources where you can find his work. Bill Metz is currently working on his second book and expects it to be out sometime in 2006.
