Vengeance rises, fueled by unquenchable rage, and formed by an amalgamation of teeth, claws, and nightmares.

Get your copy of Abomination today.

Abomination is now available in digital and paperback!

Vengeance takes the form of something twisted, animalistic, and not quite of the living world....

I had a blast at the Columbus Book Festival this past weekend. I sold a good amount of books, gained a lot of new readers, and had people come to see me specifically, which is awesome! A rainstorm even came through Saturday and we had to close up the tent with customers in it.

If you're going to be in Columbus this weekend, you should stop by the Columbus Book Festival. I'll be there Sat and Sun with the Horror Writers Association Ohio Chapter and Matt Dinniman! Tent #79.

Since release Rootfingers has been mostly hovering between 72 - 100 in American Horror on Amazon, which is awesome. Can it go higher? We'll see. Also, reviews are eternally appreciated!

Found this baby bird at the dog park. The branches of the tree were out of reach, so I picked him up (he fell asleep in my hand), then put him in a safer spot where all the dogs wouldn't try to play with him. Then made him a little nest with leaves and twigs.

Went to go meet the original owner of our spooky house. He's only a couple blocks down the street.
