Evening kiddies, I just wanted to give a quick little bit of info. Last night I recorded a reading and discussion about my views on the horror genre with Austin Moss at whattheglasscontains.com. It went very well and had an unexpected twist. I began by reading my flash fiction piece "The Conversation" (from Pill Hill …

The Journey: Novella Thoughts pt.3
Ok, let's go. See that guy next to these words? That's me. Well, 35 pounds heavier, but I assure you it is me. See that one book in front of him? Now it would be 13 anthologies with him. And now the solo stuff is coming. The pic is from Horrorfind Weekend in 2011 where I read …
What Happened to Me? And Some Updates…
Ok, I've been putting tons of thought into this lately...What the hell happened to me? I was a nice quiet boy once. I didn't curse, I didn't hate the light, and I read nice fantasy books. I slipped and I slipped pretty big. It's not a bad thing though, I am who I am. After …
On “Lights Out” and Interview with Nate Southard!

Is Writing a Job?
I already have a full-time (plus some) job. I put in a ton of hours and sometimes when I get home, the muse is toast and it takes a great deal of rum to awaken it again. Every so often, by the time that happens, I'm asleep and my dreams freak me out. The muse …
Hop on the Bus for the Summer of Zombie Tour!!!!!!!!!!

The winner of the signed Undead Tales 2 book was Beth Lunkenheimer and the two winners that will appear in some upcoming projects were Ashley Smith and Mark Duvall. I've already filled Mark in on his role and he is very excited …
Some Random Musings…AVENGERS!!!!!
Ok, I'm going to take a moment to wax poetic about The Avengers. Marvel Studios did an incredible job bringing their superhero franchises together in one big kick ass movie. It helped they had this planned all along with each movie adding something toward the whole (if you stayed after the credits that is...). The …
The Journey: Novella Thoughts Pt.2
I sit here working on some short stuff and preparing to take the next step into a larger world. Soon, I will begin the editing process and rewrites on In Memoriam, my first novella and really a labor of love. Part 1 set the stage with the current stage the novella is in, but tonight …
