RELEASE DATE: David Rose & the Days of Awe

TWENTY YEARS IN THE MAKING, the David Rose series has reached its climax. Inspired by the relationship between my OWN David and Rachel, the series represents a promise I made to them those many years ago. Life happens, roadblocks happen, but on my birthday this summer, as it so happened, I brought this labor of love to its hopefully worthy end. 

Grateful to Evolved Publishing for all their support, and to YOU for yours, which I shall humbly implore once again: we have a release date of Saturday, Nov. 14, 2026, and I will be ever so grateful now and when the day comes, if you would be so kind as to help spread the word.

Thank you, as ever, my friends.

Short story: Devil & the Blue Ghosts

 Was on my front porch some dozen years ago, watching my kids catch fireflies on a languid summer eve, when I remembered hearing once about blue fireflies, and so I looked them up, and a story was born. Grateful to the wonderful folks at Piker Press. Hope you enjoy.~

In A Flash

 Had a quirky FF piece published: hope you enjoy it! Was inspired by the Phillip Pullman quote: “After nourishment, shelter and companionship, stories are the thing we need most in the world.”
