What better day to reveal the cover of my first short story collection than Friday the 13th? There is no better day! If there was, I would have done it that day instead of this day. Now stop asking silly questions. Sorry. Friday the 13th brings out the blood-lust in me. Sort of like full
The new year is here, which means new fiction for your bleeding eyes. I have to admit, I’m excited about this one. I’ve been waiting patiently for close to (over?) a year for this to finally come out, and now it’s here! My story “When Ayanna Kapoor Waits” is in the Fall 2011 issue of

And by the way, you are all extraordinarily nasty individuals, with all your Frosty fetishes. I’d say about 90% of you, if given the chance, would douse
We interrupt your regularly scheduled program for this late-breaking news: The Arcane Anthology is now available! You can purchase a copy either in print or ebook format, and within the cover of this long-awaited beauty, you’ll find my short story “Destination Unknown.” If that’s not enough awesome for ya, you should note that I’m sharing
Did you know it’s December!? I just tossed out my Jack-O-Lantern like two days ago. And wasn’t Thanksgiving yesterday? I swear I remember eating turkey last night. Or hunting turkey. Or pretending to be a turkey. And now Santa is all up in my grill demanding to be acknowledged. Well you know what? I ain’t

Sandy Musick (winner of the Halloween Mystery Bag) was kind enough to send along some photos of her opening the package. I thought it’d be nice to let everyone see what the contents of the mystery bag were, partly because half the fun of a surprise is discovering what it is, and partly because I
