“UNRAVELING” – New story… in a new collection!

It’s been a minute, but I’ve got another short story collection out with the good folks of The TerraGenesis Collective! As with our prior compilations, It Was a Dark and Stormy Night… and The Many Lives of Devon Reeves, the book combines a handful of speculative fiction stories centered around a titular theme — this time, “(In)justice.”

What’s right? Wrong? Who decides which is which, and the respective reward or punishment? For my take on the premise, I wrote “Unraveling“, a real-time horror riff on Clue that gets… complicated.

(In)Justice is available now for free on Smashwords, but if you don’t have an account there and don’t want to make one, please see below instead!

New Anthology Contribution: “The Many Lives of Devon Reeves”

What’s in a name?

The time has come for another anthology of short, spooky fiction from “The Terragenesis Collective”! That’d be me and some other fine folks in the online creative writing community who previously released It Was a Dark and Stormy Night…, in which my story “Repocalypse” appears (also on YouTube!). This second collection, The Many Lives of Devon Reeves, moves from a classic phrase as a binding theme to one simple similarity: Every tale has a character named “Devon Reeves.” Who–or what–is this individual? Any commonalities may be mere coincidence, or they may mean something greater… check it out here on Smashwords and decide for yourself.

My contribution this time is “A Thing Forgotten,” in which a wayward young man remembers a picture book from his childhood that no one else seems to… and perhaps they ought not to. It’s something of a spoiler, but since I’m really happy with how this turned out, check out the illustration from the talented horror painter Jenyce Garay (@JenyceGArt):

New Short Story: “Repocalypse” (And More!)

Four dark and stormy nights, to be precise!

So my output for at least the last year has chiefly been YouTube content, but I still do write short fiction from time to time. Case in point, I recently contributed to an anthology of scifi/fantasy stories, now available in a variety of formats on Smashwords! It’s a themed assemblage of four tales by four authors, under our umbrella of “The Terragenesis Collective,” which all start with or otherwise incorporate the line “it was a dark and stormy night.” Our goal was to prove that this tired old phrase is still ripe with unique potential, if properly employed–and I feel we succeeded! My contribution, the opener, is called “Repocalypse“; it’s a time loop story, but one unlike any I bet you’ve seen before. In any event, it was a joy and a privilege to collaborate on this collection, and I look forward it to being only the first of many!

As a great author once said, it’s only the end of the world again…
