Trying applejack for the first time because the Cartwrights have it on Bonanza 🤣 It’s very good and smooth for 80 proof. Great for Thanksgiving, I bet.

Looking for a short horror story collection? Tales From The Parkland has you covered, plus it contains my popular novella, Harmony. If you’re a fan of the Twilight Zone or Black Mirror, you should definitely check it out.

Somehow managed to miss this fabulous review of #Pyres from fellow writer @sjbudd.bsky.social!

If you want some supernatural, arty, atmospheric folk horror from the New Forest with more than a smattering of political intrigue, look no further: books2read.com/pyresnovel

Listened to a great radio show: The Last of Scrooge (1980). Vincent Price narrates a cynical look at the year following A Christmas Carol, where Fred’s wife & Bob’s wife maintain hatred for Scrooge. Starts with Scrooge homeless & dead on a park bench and tells how he got there.

It's true! And he's not just saying that because I have our Intern standing off camera with a loaded handgun*!

Buy a Point of Impact book today! Be happy! Or ELSE.

*this is a fabrication. Our Intern, Jerry, could not be trusted with a potato peeler, much less anything more dangerous.

ICYMI: I have a website.

No, I didn’t code it—some days turning on the coffee machine is peak tech for me.

It’s live, it’s gritty, & it has my short stories + SAINTS info.

Fair warning: no snacks, treats, or pet pics. Just stories.
