Hey everyone! Queer horror writer here, author of the Neverglades series and the "Weird Brothers" ARG, finally jumping off the Meta sinking ship. Hoping to rebuild my community on Bluesky and make connections with other writers. For those who've been here longer - where's a good place to start?
So pleased to share that the "Sinister Century" omnibus collection (featuring one of my stories, "Pay the Ferryman") is now available in paperback on Amazon, courtesy of Disturb Ink Books! Check it out!
