If you like to read spookier pieces, here’s some of my recent horror and dark publications! Unfixed Timelines 3 includes several historical fiction pieces with darker themes, including “Charcoals from an Unidentified Chicago Artist” and “Green-Eyed Phantom.” Though neither of these are horror, they definitely delve into the darker side of history and fiction. My […]

“Not Their Real Names” is a semi-humorous flash fiction piece involving a heist from the perspective of the person running the operation as she deals with her hired crew. I made use of a pretty clever trick in this story by nicknaming the characters after pop culture personalities and characters, because by doing so, I […]

My microfiction story, “One Book, Never Published,” is a brief look at how time-travel to prevent the publication of a book filled with falsehoods might turn out.

My story “Áftharto Sóma” was inspired by a theme of “dissection” for a monthly flash fiction writing prompt. It involved research into the historical practice of dissection in the British colonies in North America and the early United States (among other locations and time periods, as I searched for the right one). After coming across […]

I’ve got some recent story publications that are suitable for younger readers, along with several books, including steampunk and fantasy titles! My flash fiction story “Dinosaur Seeds” is written for an adult audience, but kids would very likely enjoy this story, which involves a child planting “dinosaur” seeds and the surprising results! This story can […]

I had a couple of new pieces come out in April My flash fiction piece, “Mutualism by Any Other Name,” appeared in the April issue of Factor Four Magazine. They’ve published me before, but I was pleased to find this story a home, as it’s an odd one, told from the perspective of a grove of […]
