About Me

Welcome everyone! I appreciate you checking out my profile. I am a horror writer and I am extremely passionate about the craft. I hail from the midwest and my headline about sums things up...some of the time ;) I am also a proud member of the Great Lakes Association of Horror Writers, check out their website: www.greatlakeshorror.com

I am currently penning my fourth novel: NO INNOCENT VICTIM. My first three creations--BROKEN MIRROR, SPIRIT ASYLUM, and JEWEL--are in various stages of professional editing and marketing. I am also currently adapting one of my pieces of short fiction--ZEALOT--into a longer reading novella. I am excited about this project and I believe it may prove to be a good horrific read. In addition to these projects, I am also collaborating with the script guru Roy C Booth (see Brian Keene's stage script for Terminal). We are busy bringing two of my short stories (THE DREGS and SHERLOCK HOLMES AND THE CASE OF THE NECROMANCER) to life via the screen. Exciting times, so please, stay tuned!

Among other places, you can find my short fiction published within the pages of the magazines: Trei Literary, SNM Horror, Writers Together, and The Odd Mind, as well as, the anthologies ATRUM TEMPESTAS and ZOMBIE CHRONICLES. Check them out!

I invite you to check out my professional website for samples of all my writing and my blog!
