Award-winning author of Death and the Taxman, 2024 IAN Book of the Year for Outstanding Humor/Comedy. There isn’t nearly enough humor in the world. I aim to change that, one story at a time.
That moment when you realize you raised them right. No electricity? Sounds like family reading night by llama light. ❤️🔥🦙💡
It was a delightful evening. (Power returned 3hrs later)

Dealing with tax malarkey in mid-August requires a special kind of beer. Thank you Taxman Brewing.

The Grim Reaper, trapped in an IRS agent’s dying body, must regain his powers before he dies and faces judgment for his original sin.
Readers and critics call Death and the Taxman “Wildly fun!” and “Hilarious!” with “Mad Terry Pratchett vibes.”

Woohoo! My story “Fish Farts: A Love Story” is coming to the anthology Murderfish.
It’s the prank that overthrew a king, a tale of love, sharks, and piscine flatulence.
This is now my THIRD story in the Unhelpful Encyclopedia series. 😁
