First of all, thanks so much to Demdike for giving me the OK to do this. I really appreciate it.
Thought I'd take a minute to tell you all a little about my published work. Hopefully I can pique your curiosity enough to pick up a book or two . . . if so, I can't wait to hear hear what you think (good, bad, or indifferent)!

Self explanatory. FANGORIA called it "a chump-stumping shock-cinema party book of the highest horror order!" Betcha I can stump a few of you.

A dark coming-of-age suspense tale in the vein of STAND BY ME and BOY'S LIFE. In the year 1977, a boy witnesses a terrible crime in the woods bordering his hometown. He knows the killer. The killer knows him. Doing the right thing has never been so difficult.

My tribute to those "evil in a small town" novels that were all the rage in the '80s. High art? No way. But it's oh-so-fun. Demons and sacrilege and dismembered genitalia . . . what's not to like?

White-trash noir with a streak of twisted humor. Think COLD IN JULY, or BUBBA HO-TEP without the mummy. This one's about a professional wrestler who's horribly disfigured by 2 psychotic fans who think his "heel" character is the real thing . . . and that's just the first 10 pages!

What if your love of horror put your life in danger? A midlist genre author discovers the body of a murdered child one morning while he's out walking his dog. Gradually, his life becomes a living hell as his neighbors turn against him one by one . . . because if he writes "that kind of stuff" he must be some kind of weirdo, right?
Coming next month (limited edition, with a trade paperback and e-book due in December): A tale of bullying and bloodshed at a summer camp for boys. A little autobiographical, mostly not, but the hardest thing I've ever had to write all the same. I'm so very proud of this one, can't wait for folks to read it.
