    What is Hellhound all about anyway?

    This Christmas I have one more special thing coming for everyone. It's a novella because I have been into writing those lately. I find the platform interesting and sort of liberating. There are a bunch of story ideas I've had clinking around in my head for some time and I had trouble finding an outlet for them. It turns out, condensing the story into a novella is what was needed for most of these ideas. So, I have been cranking these short novels out pretty quickly this year

    What is a novella?

    It's been an interesting journey recently with my writing. I have discovered that writing shorter horror fiction has helped me find new ways of being, well, creepy. I have been cranking out short stories for Amazon Kindle, but also for my upcoming podcast and a future collection of short fiction. However, it's been the realization of the novella that has been the most eye-opening. Wait - a what now? What is a novella? Well, the literal definition of a novella is a short novel

    Why writing short stories is important

    My latest book, When the Night Comes Out, coming out close to Halloween 2018, is a collection of short stories. The stories themselves were all published on their own and are still available for about 99 cents a piece and just available for Kindle. For some people, the question I sometimes get asked is, with all of the novels and the fact I am fairly quick at cranking out books, why bother with short stories at all.

    Read an excerpt: The Well

    My horror novella The Well comes out this Black Friday - right after Thanksgiving. As you contemplate heading out to fight the crowds while holiday shopping or prepare yourself for the cyber-attacks of Cyber Monday, you can scare yourself with this weird supernatural tale of horror I concocted while writing my short fiction this year. The Well tells the story of a man and woman who buy a new house. Right away, the wife, Karen, seems a bit off. Obsessed with checking out the y
