The crew of the Ravager thought they were on top of the world, taking what they wanted and burning the rest―even the Royal Navy couldn't stop them.
Then they met the tribe.
Then they found the fog.
And in the fog they couldn't see what was coming until it was far too late.
Red Blood, White Wood, a standalone not-so-short story, available now in the Kindle store for just 99 cents!
Beware the fog.
Let us tell you a story!

The New England Horror Writers' Wicked anthology series continues, this time with Wicked Weird.
More than twenty stories of fallen gods and elder gods (and just a few things in-between), and the traces and footprints they leave in this world, including my short, "Pet Shop of the Gods."
The gods have pets? you say.
Not exactly, I say.
But you'll have to buy the book to read the rest―so grab your copy now, before it grabs you!
Site Under Construction!
I'm in the process of giving the site an overhaul—in between writing, editing, and working a day job (yep, in that order). Please bear with me.
Navigation menus may change. Sidebars will change. Things will be updated. Some stuff will be added. Some stuff will disappear.
Come on back every once in a while and check out the progress. I'd love to have you.
