NEWS & EVENTS
Catch up on all my crazy adventures! I am always submitting to magazines and publishers, so this page is bound to change.

At the beginning of the beautiful season of dead leaves in 2014 I started writing a new book series. It's
called Voo Doo Child. It's set in the future after demons have set up shop on earth and
and everyone is just dealing with the End of Days after party. Stay tuned for more updates on that front!
