I am thrilled to announce that I will be featured in Western's Alumni Newsletter in October! It's a bit humbling: considering all the amazing people who have been highlighted in the Newsletter over the years, but I am happy that I managed to "sweet talk" my way into getting some exposure there. I will post a link to the interview once it's published. :-)

I took a different approach to this story, and made it loosely biographical. The overall theme of the anthology was Colorado experiences, and, as it turns out, I have plenty of those. This book was released in June, 2025.

I am thrilled to announce that my short story, Whatever Remains of Me, is featured in Stories To Take To Your Grave — Wandering Souls Edition, published by Undertaker Books! For those who follow me on social media, this was previously titled I, Zombie and I often referred to it as my "baby-eating story." I am very happy that this weird little tale finally found a home.

I am thrilled to announce that my story, "Mortimer The Maus," has been selected for MetaStellar's Best Of... Anthology (Year Three). The Anthology features "forty-six enthralling stories from the most-talented science fiction, fantasy, and horror writers" working in the field today (so, I find myself in highly-esteemed company). Available in bookstores and online in mid-August!

My short story, "Dispossessed" was performed on this season's No Sleep Podcast! This story originally appeared in Corpse Honey, but was written several years before, just prior to the Scenes From The Carnival Lounge release. The production value is impressive, and I am thrilled with the rendition!
