This is really happening! My short story collection of beloved horror tropes has found a home with Brigids Gate Press and will be hitting bookshelves in 2023! This has been a life-long endeavor, spurred by my love of horror and all that go bump in the night. I can't wait to bring this to you!

I'm floored my little story about a soul sucking Santa took first place! Who knew? Thanks to all who voted for my little tale and congrats to all the authors who submitted their Bloody Xmas tales! Your stories were incredible! 

This issue is the biggest and most ambitious one yet! And it's chalk full of amazing art by Nate Olson and includes a bonus story. You can now order print copies, .PDFs, stickers, bookmarks and prints! 

My short story, The Doll  tied for 3rd in Crystal Lake's Flash Fiction contest! The theme this month was haunted houses told from a non-human POV. There were 17 other entries all from amazingly talented authors. The finalists are voted on by their peers.  

I am excited to announce that my essay, A Girl, Her Dad and a Cemetery will be included in the Death’s Garden Revisited anthology edited by Loren Rhoads and published by Automatism Press. It’s a story about a day I took my dad out to take photos at the beautiful Mountain View Cemetery in Oakland, California. The anthology is filled with stories about cemeteries from all over the world. There are forty different contributors ranging from horror writers to anthropologists, to ghost hunters, historians and more. Some of the names include: A. M. Muffaz, Angela Yuriko Smith, Christine Sutton, Paul Stansfield, Rain Graves, Carole Tyrrell, Erika Mailman and many more.

The book contains full color photos and is available in hardcover and paperback.
