I'm a big fan of 'cozy' mysteries: Agatha Christie, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Dorothy Sayers, G.K. Chesterton, I can't get enough of them. Naturally (because that's how my mind works), I've always wanted to make one of my own. So, I did, and it's now available on Amazon. “A house of many sins is a … Continue reading The Ten Commandments of Murder: Available Now

Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Nick Windworth in The Man in Grey
The shop bell chimed and a young woman entered. Nick guessed she was in her mid twenties; pretty, though less than she might be. Her fair young face was worn with anxiety and her light brown hair was tangled, probably from the number of times she’d run her fingers through it. She looked anxiously around … Continue reading Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Nick Windworth in The Man in Grey
Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Karen Stillwater in Deadly Currents
It was her first murder. Detective Karen Stillwater knelt over the body of the young Black man lying in the street, his face turned upwards to the sky, his eyes wide, lips slightly parted as though bewildered by what had happened to him.

Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Andre Fireson in Fire From Behind
The alarm went off as usual at four-thirty in the morning. Andre Fireson hit it, rolled out of bed, and switched on the lights.

Andre … Continue reading Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Andre Fireson in Fire From Behind

Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: The Clown
Frank Catelli sat in his car, watching the children play. He had a newspaper on his lap, but wasn’t reading it. It was only for show, in case someone came up and asked what he was doing. Always best to provide yourself with an innocent excuse for anything you’re doing. In the same way, his … Continue reading Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: The Clown

Hello everyone. For the first time I'm making an open appeal to readers for help. I have a book in the works, which is approaching the end of its editing process. I'm hoping to publish it soon, but there's only one problem: I don't have a cover. You can't sell a book without a cover; … Continue reading An Appeal

Friends and Monsters Part Three
I finally published the last part of my My Little Pony-Godzilla crossover story! Sample: Godzilla's arrival in Manehatten was accompanied by a massive tidal wave as his bulk displaced enough water to swamp the docks and flood the whole waterfront. He strode ashore, streaming seawater off his flanks as his feet crushed the wharves and warehouses. … Continue reading Friends and Monsters Part Three
FAN Fiction!
Dipping my toes in the semi-embarrassing, but oh-so-fun world of fan fiction. I believe the below image speaks for itself. Here's a sample. Read Part One here (Part Two will be up in a few days): "So, that's all I know," said Twilight as the six friends finished up their cider. "And I couldn't find one … Continue reading FAN Fiction!
