Stuff about Stuff...

I'm a writer. I write mostly Mythic Horror and Dark Modern Fantasy. I've put out 6 books in the last 2 years. Although I started out a visual artist, I found my calling in the written word. I still dabble in visual arts, but it's not my passion; plus I don't practice enough to be really any good at it.

The Writings...

"Paper Cuts: Tales Of Horror & Fantasy" is out from Xlibris Publishing and is available at their website as well as on amazon.com and other online markets. A slim volume, it contains 32 short stories from subtle terror to visceral nightmares.


The follow-up collection, "The Glorious & The Wretched" has just been released from Lulu Publishing and is currently only available at their website. Another assembly of 32 tales, this books comes in over 400 pages and is filled with mythic horror and modern dark fantasy. Look for it at [link]


I've also released a chapbook of poetry and romantic realism shorts entitled "And If Eternity Failed You..." 13 poems filled with dark symbolism concerning relationships are staggered around 6 tales about love and life. A Lulu Publishing Exclusive, you can also find it at [link]

The Written Word

My 1st book, "Paper Cuts: Tales Of Horror & Fantasy" is still available through all major online retailers. It is a collection of 32 short stories, many of which have appeared on various online writing forums. It contains everything from subtle terror to stark, visceral nightmares.

One of my favorite pieces, "The Armada Of Sensation" was published in the 1st issue of Horror Authors United Magazine. A tale of vicious psionics who feed on the emotions & flesh of humans, it was well received. I invite you to check out the ongoing publication of the HAU Magazine at [link]

My 2nd book is finished and in its final stages of editing now. Titled "The Glorious & The Wretched," it is another collection of 32 short stories. This anthology, however, is bigger, better and bolder than the first. Look for it in the spring of 2008.

Image Writing Exercise

  • Reading: stuff on pulseHEAD.com
I've been trying a new writing technique, mostly thanks to everyone here at deviantart.com...

I've been finding images that are somewhat more "Unconventional" than your typical snapshots, photos that I find moving and intriguing. Pictures that are so fascinating to me upon a single glance, that they begin to tell me a story. I'll stare at these images for a while, letting them tell me whatever tale they wish, then I simply begin typing. I've written perhaps a dozen of these types of stories.

Then I decided to further things along, take the next step in the evolution of this process. I started collecting images, seemingly at random. I gather maybe 15 and whittled it down to 8. I arrainged these 8 into an order I found most chronologically pleasing to whatever sense I was using. I'm currently in the middle of creating a series of related shorts for two online writer's forums based entirely from what I took from these images.

It's a modern mythological tale, dark and comedic. Fallen Angels who curl up naked in cardboard boxes while former Elder Gods watch TV in the next room. A story of love, redemption and reluctant friendships forged over a stolen DVD collection.

Yeah...
