Why do we fantasize about being transported to other worlds? And why does living in a world full of dragons and danger seem so much more manageable than our own?

For my new Bluesky peeps, a new introduction. I currently write science fiction. My debut project, The Cluster Cycle, is a spare opera pentalogy featuring old stories with sci-fi twists. Enjoy!

I tried writing a comedic Cenobite/Hellraiser game. It didn't work out. But I love the idea so much. So at least have a silly short story, Such Sights to Show You, about a new hire Cenobite.

Home today! Yesterday we looked around the Museum.of Christian Art, the Venetian fortress, and walked along the breakwater (6km round-trip from the hotel to the beacon and back) as our nighttime walk. Really loved the week here.

Fancy something longer you can get your fangs into?

Try my novellas and novels- Horror and Dark SFF in the Gothic mode, from soap opera with tentacles to a sumptuously queer dark fantasy.

I even have a contemporary asexual romcom/domestic drama.

Screenshot of a Bluesky post and its quoted post. The first reads "there are also these two options, 'engagement farming' and 'spam' which often hit artist account who may be self-promoting or running art shares/giveaways.
