October Updates

Hello, Staycationers & all other creatures of the night!


It's been a hot minute since you've heard from me, so I wanted to give you a little update on what I've been up to & update you on forthcoming projects!


As you may or may not have noticed, I've been absent on social media lately. In part, I was locked away writing SWEETHAVEN, which turned out fantastic, btw! But, on the flip-side, I've been struggling with a myriad of health issues I'd rather not go into detail here, and they've made it difficult for me to focus.


Beyond that, my conception of time is off (way off). But worst of all, I've lost interest or enjoyment in so many of the things I used to enjoy— from coffee (travesty!) to playing guitar and writing music to reading. For the first time in six or seven years, I'm going to miss my Reading Challenge by about thirty books. And of the ones I've read, or tried to read, I can't say I've enjoyed too many of them.


So, please forgive me if I've been absent or distant. I'm doing the best I can to be present, answer your messages and emails, and just enjoy your company (which I DO!).


With that in mind, I wanted to give you a few quick updates:


HOMECOMING is on target for 2025 release. I had hoped to get it out there earlier, but... Also, I want to make sure it blows your socks off. And, it will! 😎


SWEETHAVEN drops 01.07.25 and it's a lot of fun. Think 1940's detective meets Lovecraft meets Popeye and you've got the idea! I had a blast writing it, and I hope you have as much fun reading it!


Currently, I am knee-deep in my seventh novel, The Mourning House. It's non-horror (sorry, guys). The story is epic, follwoing an Irish family over the course of 40 years by visitng five Christmases. It's NOT a Hallmark Christmas story, and if you know my work at all, you know it's full of darkness and light. I'm hoping to wrap it up by Thanksgiving and then put all the finishing touches on HOMECOMING.


There's more coming in 2025, but my lips are sealed!


Also, be sure to check your emails around Halloween. I'll be sharing a collection of short stories I wrote a few years ago.


Well, there you have it! Thank you for your patience and understanding. I'm trying to finish up the members section of my website and organize all my STAYCATION goodies. Soon my pretties, soon...


Until then...

May the road rise to meet you.
