Author, Writer, Screenwriter of Horror, Speculative Fiction and non-Fiction, I write from the deep dark wood of the Pacific Northwest. Don't bother searching for me, it will just get you into trouble with the local, deep, dark woodlings.
My latest endeavors are seeing my video trailers created for my books and producing audio books of my works.
I am a member of the Horror Writer's Association.

"Death of Heaven" is in paperback/ebook, and is my epic Horror novel

No, you've not read something like this before.
"Anthology of Evil" in paperback/ebook
http://anthologyofevil.com
This is my collection of short horror fiction, including the novella "Andrew" (also available separately on Amazon Kindle Select), which is the lead in to my book, "Death of Heaven".
I also have short stories in anthologies on Amazon and listed on Goodreads: "The Undead Nation Anthology", and "Rhonny Reaper's Creature Features Anthology" (proceeds for both to to charity for Cancer and Diabetes, respectively); both 2010. And most recently, Hunger Pangs: Dark Confessions by Mayday Collective, with my short story, "Mr. Pakool's Spice".
I also have a two part film review on PerihelionSF.com on the documentary, Chasing Ice, that I highly recommend to everyone.
I have several screenplays out and about and working on others:
-Dark of kNight (adaptation from the novel, paranormal romance)
-Gray and Lover: The HearthTales (original work, Horror/Comedy)
-This is on permanent hold: writing "America" a screenplay allegory in the vein of Frank Capra (with the help of Producer Chris Soth). The treatment is done, the first reel of the screenplay is written (first draft obviously) and starting soon on the second reel. I'm afraid for the time being this may be going the route of my "Poor Lord Ritchie" short story, which took twenty-two years to see publication and then won an award. Well, I guess that wouldn't be so bad, really?
I am also in the process of novelizing my Gray and Lover: The HearthTales, screenplay.
Thank you to those who have read and enjoyed my work. Nothing is more rewarding that knowing people enjoy what you work hard over.
Cheers!
