Planning to publish a short book of winter, Christmas themed short stories this winter. I am also going to actually try to sell some books this time. I think I'll pay a professional to format my book and create cover 🎨 art.

Two years ago I wrote a Werewolf story entitled 'Stalk'. It was picked up by Running Wild Press and published in a Werewolf themed anthology. The paperback and ebook will be released in October 2025. However the audio book is available now.

4 Months until my short story 'Stalk' is released in the Anthology 'Incurable: Stories from the world of Cure'

Available to pre order on Amazon etc.

Thanks--though the language might be a bit salty for 6th grade English.
@joe-hill.bsky.social , this should be poster sized and placed into every English class.

My new book in the The Crimson Tales series is on the way.

Coming this May 2025

In an ode or 'Cycle of the Werewolf' and 'Stand by Me' as 3 11 year old friends search for the cause of mysterious deaths in small town in denial. But as the clues mount, are they next?

My debut novella is 1 year old 🎂

Writing is it's own reward. Publishing is the difficult part. But I have learned so much about writing and publishing in this one year. Lessons that I will hopefully apply as my Novel is released on the next couple of months.

A good time to read a spooky book. My new Novel 'A Fable Dark' will be heating up the horror #TBR by then.
