  • Midweek and a Short Story

    I have a massive to-do list looming over my head, so instead of tackling that I sat down and wrote a short story. But! Before we get to that, I do have the pre-order link for The Stranger, a horror anthology due out October 2nd that will include my standalone prequel to The Half Killed,…
