Why a 2nd edition? I released the 1st edition with a poetry collection, "The Worst of Samael Apollos" attached at the end of the book. Initially I wanted to write To John Love Lauri with the main character, Samael Apollos, as a struggling poet. I felt the story was better off without that angle. Only 100 copies of the first edition were made available.
What is on the horizon?

Currently I have two novels in varying stages. Sometimes I add, sometimes I subtract, sometimes all at once. A collection of short stories may see the light of day in 2024. They range from family mysteries, dark comedies, horror, and satire. I enjoy telling stories and other delusions. I hope you enjoy them. If not, try my author heroes George Orwell and Fyodor Dostoevsky.

Who am I?
This photo was sent in to "The Horror Zine" magazine for their Fall 2018 edition. I wrote three poems on a whim, after seeing an ad, and was quickly answered. I was asked if I had anything a little less violent. I was rejected by a horror themed magazine for going too far! I thought it was funny :) I sent in three others and found my way

That's my start.
I'm still figuring out that whole, "Who am I? question. I was born and raised in Wisconsin. Good student when I wanted to be, enjoys loud music, been called an "Indigo", and loves the woods. Needing a change, my family and I relocated to Arizona in 2011. I spent over fifteen years in the radio industry, dabbled in other zombie inducing industries, and currently teach.
