Very excited to have put my signature to a piece of paper that declares me and another unknown party that I cannot speak to yet will be making a project in the near future. Vaguebooking, I know. Super annoying for you, but kind of delightful for me. I can’t wait to talk about this new adventure, and all the things that are going to be made. The future is bright and full… Read More
Since the official Bram Stoker Award announcement came out, I’ve been asked a couple of times: Am I bummed about Bram? Um, yeah! I would have loved to be on the official roster and hang out with a bunch of really cool authors and probably buy last minutes tickets to go to the awards ceremony and totally overspend on a fancy dress to look like a million bucks. I would have loved… Read More
I Have Asked To Be Where No Storms Come is on the preliminary ballot for the Bram Stoker Awards in Novel – Superior Achievement category!

An excellent and exceptional author interview appeared on Horror Addicts recently! All fun chatter about being a supernatural dead zone, wanting to meet Jonathan Sims from The Magnus Archives, and my Crystal Lake Publishing book, I Have Asked To Be Where No Storms Come.

This book is packed. Not only is there romance, but you get a mystery, crime and suspense, an evil billionaire, the supernatural, and even some nice historical… Read More
Science fiction always feels a bit like asking for a tarot reading or having your future read on a crystal ball. Sure, the aliens might be a bit unbelievable, but truth is stranger than fiction. For Kim Stanley Robinson’s peek into the future, things hit a little too close to home, and open the curtain on a lot of topics beyond science that are inhibiting us from saving the planet from climate… Read More

No secret. I’ts hard. All of the marketing outrach, interview answering, genre research, image creation for my new western horror dark fantasy novel, I Have Asked To Be Where No Storms Come was primarily done sometime between 10am and 4am, whenever I was able to rock my baby to sleep.
