Last month, I sat down to chat with @macabredaily.bsky.social about my new short story THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM. I talk about how the idea came together, what my writing process is like, and give a shoutout to some of my favorite books of 2025.

Where are the bookstores that stock indie horror writers? I would love to get THE USHER in more stores around the Northeast.

DUN, DA-DUN DUN DUNNNN! But, really, I should probably spell that just "Done," as it's what I am with the (still unannounced (except here?)) novel.
Think y'all are going to dig it. So surprised it all worked out. Was not one that was likely to—bad idea all around. But that's the main kind I like.

Excited to be taking my book THE USHER to Monroeville Mall this weekend. "Dawn of the Dead" is my favorite movie ever, and it's always dreamy to walk around the mall. To set up a table with a banner and my first novel there? Dream come true. #books #horror #zombies #dawnofthedead #livingdeadweekend

This is how it feels to be an American this morning.
We traded paradise for pimps, Heaven for Hell, and flushed our future down the drain for a wealthy orange turd that doesn't give a shit about anyone but himself.

Sorry to hear about David Lynch. I worked beside him (same studio) while he was making BLUE VELVET. He answered my questions about his work with grace and honesty. I especially enjoyed his deeply existential comic strip, The Angriest Dog in the World.”
