Urban legend, body horror and suburban paranoia collide in THE NINE O'CLOCK HORSES - a collection of short stories, novelettes and micro-fictions from the author of TRADWIFE, HUMMINGBIRD and
SALTBLOOD

A toxic relationship turns monstrous. An insurance investigator discovers something unthinkable in a decaying English boarding school. And a hungry insomniac gets much more than she bargains for when she falls down a rabbit-hole of cooking videos...

Equal parts unsettling, stomach-churning and macabre, and seasoned with a healthy dose of feminist rage, THE NINE O'CLOCK HORSES is perfect for fans of Jonathan Sims, Eliza Clark, Daisy Johnson and The Magnus Archives

SURPRISE! My first collection is out in the world!
(Albeit currently only via the NBP website - this is the softest of soft launches)

Is Magnus Archives-esque short fiction your thing? If so - THE NINE O'CLOCK HORSES might be the weekend read for you...

SONG DOGS is out December 2nd, and if I had to choose one theme that runs through all the Buzzard’s Edge books, it’s found family.

With that in mind, dedicating this book to @candacenola.bsky.social was long overdue.

Hope in horror. Served up on a silver platter for your Thanksgiving TBR.

Where The Soul Goes is a culinary road-trip 80's horror that will make you hungry for more.

Newest issue of Postcards From the Falls is a week late, but alive (it’s alive!) nonetheless. This one contains some recommendations, some candid talk on deadlines, and my writing plans for the next few months.

There will come a day when I don’t base the title for a short story on a Thrice song, but today is not that day.

Pssst, you. Yeah, you. You look like somebody who needs an action-packed horror story set in the old west with shoot-outs, witches, and a character who communicates in ASL.

Treat yourself. Go ahead.
