Another show! Writers discuss AI

Here's a thing we're doing... give a listen

Cover reveal

Cover Reveal for the new SNAKEBERRY crime fiction anthology (and I've got a story in it!)

New interview!

Here's my recent writing chat with Author Mike Sanchez on his show!

And he liked it so much, I'll be on again!

Tuesday the 23rd, at 11. 

Come give a listen! 

New book!

 Just published another book! 

Journeys and Ends combines two smaller story collections, from Strange Tales and Apocalypse Tango. 

Here are two sets of tales. One set shows people going off the beaten track of reality to experience something completely new and unworldly. Individuals in pain who ride a rollercoaster of odd happenings that show life in a different perspective. People running to something or away from something. Places where mundane occurrences mix with myth and magic to turn life inside-out, where anything can happen. Gone is the workaday world of knowing the beginning and ending, or of a sound, sane, sedate frame of reference. 

Then we see various world-ending events. How does it happen? Self-launched bombs, asteroid from space, rain of fire, alien invasion, or virus and pandemic? Maybe none of those. Maybe it's giant lobsters. Or zombies. Here are different takes on the Apocalypse.

Interview on Thursday!

This Thursday I'll be having a chat with author Michael Sanchez on his Coffee Time show! 

Come give a listen!

New Bookstore!

Stopped by a great new bookstore today- Weird Providence, down in RI. Fun little place that specializes in the good kind of weird and scary books. 

The folks behind the counter are super nice, even bought a few of my scary books to sell to customers. 

Now I just need more time to poke around to the dark corners, and maybe pick up a Necronomicon! 

Might need a signing from a few of the New England Horror Writers!
