My very first story ever accepted for publication, a contemporary short story, was originally published at Page and Spine Magazine.

Who wants queer Gothic Dracula stories for Valentine’s?
Valentine’s Day’s impending arrival put me in the mood for some great queer Gothic vampire fiction. But honestly, I can’t think of a time when queer Gothic vampire stories don’t sound like fun!
Join me in the feels of Book 3!
I finished the first draft of Book 3 this week, which means two things: I am probably going to have to title it soon, and I did my best to make a playlist as I went along. Enjoy! https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1trQQNZ3FJoAjGGNY9SrCd?si=J0DkC8vJToKc1_JowyGh1Q
Review — Ascension by David Combs
Ascension by David Combs I wanted to get this review posted sooner, but when you get head-down in the final stretch of a draft, it’s easy to lose track of time. Oops. What day is it again? Ascension by David Combs is a story of descendant Guardians (read: witches) whose power and duty is passed down to... Continue Reading →

Review — Damn Fine Story by Chuck Wendig
Damn Fine Story by Chuck Wendig “Treat exposition like you’re having sex with a swamp creature. It’s crass and shameful and should be done as hastily and as hurriedly as possible.” This is a pretty good example of what you are going to find in Chuck Wendig’s Damn Fine Story. Jocularity and slightly off humor... Continue Reading →
ARC Review — Can’t Catch My Breath by Sarah Sutton
Can't Catch My Breath by Sarah Sutton I've read and enjoyed all of Sutton's books, but I have to say I think Can't Catch My Breath is her best yet. Sutton has deviated from the usual type of male character she writes. I've never disliked a single one of them in the past, but I... Continue Reading →
