One week baby!!!

My debut novel (Frost Bite) is about a small North Dakota town that gets hit by a meteor which infects the hibernating prairie dogs with alien worms, causing them to rise and attack.

So, yes, it is absolutely autobiographical 😉

Happy release day to Why Didn’t You Just Leave from Cursed Morsels Press! I had the privilege of reading the stories from 💬 and J.A.W. McCarthy - SLEEP ALONE out now! in advance, and they gutted me. I can’t wait to dive in to the rest!

THE DEAD SPOT, my debut short story collection coming out May 21st, received an advance review from ALA_Booklist!
I’m absolutely floored by their kind words (full review available in the May issue).

Maybe go ahead and preorder to see what the fuss is about?😘 (🔗 in bio)

My doorbell just rang with a surprise champagne delivery! A friend and coworker sent as congrats on a big accomplishment at the day job, and it made my whole day😃

Did I mention that there is a giveaway for free copies of the brand new *100 Unusual Prompts for Writers of Horror, Weird, and Bizarro Fiction*?

I did?

This is just a reminder.

All filed up with iced coffee and ready to record a fun podcast you can listen to soon!😃

It’s Independent Bookstore Day, let’s shout out our faves! My fave hometown bookstore is Old Firehouse Books
(here’s a lovely bookmark and my most recent buy from them, The Angel of Indian Lake by Stephen Graham Jones )🖤

I cannot get enough of The Dead Spot: Stories Of Lost Girls by Angela Sylvaine 🖤

If you’re attending StokerCon make sure to check out the virtual panel Short and Not So Sweet-Composing a Short Story Collection! I had the pleasure of moderating this discussion with these brilliant panelists, and you’re going to love it🖤

It’s almost here!!

This collection is so varied and fresh. Angela shows so much range here, both in her writing and in the stories within. This one really is a fantastic read. Check it out!

Less than a month until my collection THE DEAD SPOT comes out, so it’s time for another blurb! This one is from Caleb Stephens, an incredibly talented fellow Coloradoan with a penchant for creatures (have you read Feeders, yet?)

I’d love to get some preorders! 🔗 in bio🖤

Check out this review of THE DEAD SPOT from The Sinister Scoop ☠️🍦 😃

If feminine badassery sounds good, maybe head over to my bio and click the 🔗 to preorder 😘🖤😘 (out 5/21)

Lovely bookmail from Angela Sylvaine ! Thank you!!

You’ve got books on your TBR you really want to buy, right? Seems like a great day to do so from @LittGhostsBoo either online or in person (I really hope to visit some day)🖤

Had a busy weekend and late nights for the day job the last few days, so I rewarded myself with a lil visit to Voodoo Doughnut in the airport on my way back home🍩

Loved this book! Plus it’s free to read (see comment thread)!

It's finally here! It's The Day of the Door!
