My New Novel, The Oncoming Evil, Available Now!

My new novel, The Oncoming Evil, is available now in eBook, and soon in paperback! Released on the Yule sabbat, December 21! Here is the book description: 

R. U. Wrecked, one of the few horror authors with a big-five publisher deal, is having a crisis of conscience. He’s just run into his ex-wife who asked him, “Don’t you love me anymore?” The realization of being an adult child has clubbed him upside his ten pounds of ugly fat. His money is spent on hookers at a bunny ranch in a suburb of Vegas, and he has to face it, he’s a purposeless ghoul.

But he has no idea of the real-life night terror that awaits him.

Ed, his real name, visits his mother, who thinks it a good idea to visit their other family members in Monmouth, Illinois so he can learn to be a mature family man, for she’s divorced. Ed thinks it a fantastic idea and starts his adventure, but not before wide-eyeing the headline on the newspaper he fetched from her porch about a serial killer on the loose in Monmouth, where Richard Speck lived with his sister when he started his killing spree, where dead animals were found hanging from the roof of a barn in a satanic ritual, and where the local library has a too-extensive occult section.

Arriving in Monmouth, Ed has to win back relatives he’d angered being a selfish bestselling author. But when he finds his second cousin’s boyfriend is possessed by a demon, to say he’s caught off guard is an understatement. Suddenly, Ed doesn’t trust his courage.

Will he get the guts up to fight the demon and get him out of her boyfriend? He’d better find a way, or his favorite cousin is dead.

My First Published Book, Phantom World, Available Now!

Phantom World, my first published book, has eight tales, some of my creepiest stories ever. It has two of the “black six,” the scariest short stories I’ve ever written, “The Hat Man” and “Recreant,” plus everyone’s favorite, “Beyond Death,” with the ghost of Hedge Wiccan Kaiti, and the ghost cat, Lily. You’d be a fool to miss this one! 


The price is only $4.99, which is a very competitive price, compared to over ten dollars for an eBook, which is what the main publishers charge, the big five, which is just a ridiculous price. Who would pay that? Me being with a small publisher, the price is fair, which you have have to side with.

I hope you enjoy it, and, soon, my now novel!

The Year of Many Releases!

 It’s time to give you some relief from this terrible Coronavirus year of lockdowns and the prez with no plan. This year, I’m putting out more books than ever before: a 3rd short-story book, a new novel, and a new novel under the pseudonym I write different genres under. Plus all that, I’ve found a publisher, and my fifteenth short-story pub’ is about to come out in a three-story anthology! I’ve seen many fast-and-the-furious writers poop out a ton of books, and it’s time to keep up.
