About the Author

I'd like to primarily be remembered as a short story writer. It's my favorite form of writing and most of my novels have been completed treating each chapter like a self-contained tale. I loved horror short fiction growing up. I still read whatever issues of Weird Tales Magazine I can find online. They should really reprint that magazine for, like, a collectors special or something. Anyways, thanks for checking out my book! This was put together with stories I churned out over the last four years. Soon I'll be putting out a strictly science fiction collection, maybe a novel after that. Not sure. Got so much stuff prepared, gotta choose how I'm gonna release it all. If I had to say... my favorite stories in this collection would have to be Throckmorton, Ghost-Seeker (who is my homage to Hodgson's Carnacki), The Marionette (for its unorthodox nature), The Kuri (which I tried to write like it was an 1800s tales), and The Confession of Basil Lockehart (which is what happens when I take a Poe narrative and twist it). So I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them! See you later!
