Richard Freeland

Publisher info

I write horror and thriller fiction as well as non-fiction about gardens and landscapes. I'm a fair singer/songwriter, and a family man. I love to travel and hike with my wife Martha, play a little tennis when my bum knees let me, make and sip a great margarita, play on the water with boats, and go on adventures with my two boys.

I also love Jekyll Island, Georgia, our home-away-from-home, and have another website devoted just to our adventures on this wonderful island (www.jekyll-island-family-adventures.com).

Hope you enjoy my writing, and keep a weather eye out for "Seed", my upcoming novel.

Smashwords book reviews by Richard Freeland

  • Graves on March 16, 2011

    Great story by an outstanding author of suspense utilizing a unique twist with flair and imagination. If you thought walking past a graveyard was frightening, wait til the grave comes to you! Highly recommended. Hopefully, Crawthorne will see fit to expand this into a full-length novel, and further develop his protagonist for all our enjoyment.
