Welcome to my strange world of Blogs, Books, Movie Reviews, Podcasts, Stories, and Art!
Get a deeper dive into my books.
As we get older we realize that the journey ahead is never a straight path. It is a zig-zag that takes you forwards, backwards, sideways and through terribly deep brush. The journey ahead is one that has lots of forks and unseen trails and most of the time we’ll find that the most valuable detours… Continue reading Introducing DANNY FRANKENSTEIN…
It's a shame that time and again the old dance of going after writing for being self-published still gets carted out from time to time. I have said it before and say it again - how is it that you can make movies yourself - INDIE - and music yourself - DIY - but god… Continue reading Self Published
When I started writing I didn’t think I would one day produce nine books. Not ever. Even when my first book came out. It just…it wouldn’t have computed. It still doesn’t. I have put my ninth book out just before I turn 40. So strange. For me The Last Sheep is the end of a… Continue reading The Last Sheep – a novel
Book - The Last - is finished. Huzzah. Boo. Hiss. Whatevs. Still not sure what I feel about it. I am the worst judge of my own work because I am very hard on myself and am not sure I think anything I write is more than OK. All of this is prolly why I… Continue reading The Last War…er…Sheep
There are a glut of zombie books out there. Zombies are the new vampires - everyone is doing them and everyone's version is the best most original thing ever. So why zombies? I began this book in the early 2000s with the idea of writing a book about zombies. I have talked about… Continue reading CEMETERY EARTH – a novel of the living dead
When putting RED DREAMS together I wanted to set a tone and it began with the books cover. I wanted stories that would get under people’s skin and bother them. The stories in this book are born of blood and meant to infect you with darkness and to give you very dark, very red dreams.… Continue reading Red Dreams – book of terror
Ok, so I fretted and fretted over the book yesterday. I knew it'd be big but didn't realize it'd be THIS big. Part of it is the form factor I chose. It was put it in my head that it'd be neat to have all the books have the same form factor as the other… Continue reading Some Info On The Novel and The COVER!
This is a sample from my newest book Noches De Corazones Negros Little Mean Things It was a mistake. A monster. A thing that was not one of nature’s special creatures. It had no right to exist in a world of warm sunshine and cold science, of technology and dead gods but which existed despite… Continue reading Noches De Corazones Negros–book sample
OK, here we go. The new book is called Red Dreams and is a collection of dark stories similar to 2009's This Beautiful Darkness. Generally newer work with a couple older pieces dusted off and thrown in there. Most of the works are freshened up. The book is 214 pages long and is a paperback… Continue reading Red Dreams
Oh April Fool’s Day, I can love you so sometimes. I took this day to play a little trick on you, dear friend, and for that I am…heck, I am not sorry in the least. My fear though is that mine was a joke that either no one got, or didn’t care about. What… Continue reading The REAL THE MEEP SHEEP Cover And Other News…
Today is one of those days in life where it is important for me, means something to me, but which no one will really care about. For me, today marks the tenth anniversary of my first book signing, which was at the Borders Books and Music in Flint, Michigan. The anniversary though is more for… Continue reading Ten Years Gone…
