Republication and New Publication


My creepy Grifter’s Song novella is being rereleased today. So if you don’t already have it, go get Ghost Image at Amazon. And check out the rest of the series, created and edited by Frank Zafiro!

And yesterday I reviewed, approved, and returned proof pages for a Gattis/Dillal and Matheson short story, “This Useful Rage” for a medical fund anthology, Unbroken, edited by Peter Orullian, which will be Kickstarting April 21, 2026. So go look at that, too, please! 

And yes, I know my damned Blog page doesn’t work right. I seem to have a disconnected widget and I’m still trying to figure out how to fix it. 

 

I got a Mention!


I’m completely over the moon to discover my short story, “Peacock’s Purloined Monsters” from the Nevermore anthology (Falstaff books 2025) is on Ellen Datlow’s Best Horror of 2025 reading list! Wheeeee! I mean, damn! 

I was lucky enough to work beside Ellen at a Cascade Writer’s critique session several years ago. She’s one of the smartest, kindest people I’ve met in the business, and a legend in the Horror genre, so having one of my stories mentioned on her list is *chef’s kiss*. Thank you, Ellen

 

 

 

 

Editing Up and Off We Go!


Hello, 2026 and a whole new year of writing and editing challenges. I know it’s been a while since I updated here, but I’m back! I’m also raising my editing and coaching rates to be more inline with current standards and demand; new rates will go into effect on January 15 of this year, so get your queries in right away!

Meanwhile, I’m already committed for Norwescon over Easter weekend (April 2-5) and Squatchcon April 9-12 in Port Angeles WA. Come and see me!
