With so many cool, talented writers out there trying to get their work published, it’s sad when indie presses choose to put their time, effort, and money behind trash people.

Haha. 🖤 Maybe we’ve talked about it. Maybe we haven’t. Maybe we’ll do it just so our French publisher is forced to send us on tour together again…

Thanks, Gabino, cheers!!

Audition For The Fox is my debut novella that just entered a 2nd printing! Time travel and trickster gods abound in a story of a young woman trying to find her place in the world & needs to ensure a rebellion in the past to do so 🦊💜

Trump didn’t make anyone racist or turn anyone into a fascist. The people showing you that stuff now were already trash before and were just afraid to show it.

33 Neon and Nebulas Merging the aesthetic of neon-drenched cyberpunk cities with the grandeur of space opera. Take it back to those fantastic art covers from the Sixties and Seventies, where all things seemed possible…

I’m presently writing for the summer edition, spring is coming, and you can get the current edition of Boundary Shock Quarterly.

The bright lights of cyberpunk meet the darkness of space in issue #33 Neon and Nebulas.

Great stories every issue!

Spring is coming. It MUST. Until then…

A crack team of salvors and a homebody archaeologist make a phenomenal discovery on a distant exoplanet.
It could be the ultimate score. The ticket to their dreams.
But only if they can resist its call…

“It was the truth and there was no denying it. Jeremy Keller was being followed. At first he didn’t quite believe it. Who gets followed in real life?”
Welcome to Jeremy’s world: New York City at the end of the 20th century. Yes, Jeremy is being followed, but he doesn’t mind. He is, after all, destined for great things. A little being followed is to be expected. And no, he doesn’t know why he’s being followed. And his job is nothing to brag about either. And a certain police detective has it in for him. And the love of his life doesn’t know he exists. And he thinks he’s responsible for the death of an innocent man. And his rent is late. And he lost the mysterious envelope that just might have the answers he’s looking for. But at least he’s being followed. Not everyone can say that. But then, not everyone is destined for great things.

Getting my tax info ready and I see that three people have bought my novel LOST in the last few months. I'm betting we can get that number up to five by spring.
