Castle of Horror 12 - Ripped from the Headlines

The latest Castle of Horror Anthology contains 10 stories that have been "ripped from the headlines."

In my story "Caretakers," I provide the "true story" behind the 800-mile journey undertaken by a "perfectly normal" housecat from Yellowstone National Park to Roseville over th course of two months in 2024.

In truth, Rayne Beau is no ordinary cat. He is part of the secret society of Caretaker cats whose mission is to protect humans from the horrors of the supernatural world. His cross-country trek was, in reality, a two-month-long monster hunt.

Published by Castle Bridge Media, Castle of Horror 12 can be purchased on Amazon.

HERitage Volume 2 - Twisting Turning Timeshifts

This anthology asks the question: "What if?" The stories demonstrate how tiny changes can make a huge difference, and how major changes can shatter paradigms and forever alter the world.

My story, "Fission Point," ponders how the African continent might have changed if primeval Africans discovered nuclear power before fire. It follows the story of Africa’s warrior queen, Amanirenas, as she faces off against the Holy Roman Empire in 40 BCE at the same time that representatives of a nuclear-powered west African confederation arrive in the kingdom of Kush.

Following a successful Kickstarter campaign earlier this year, Twisting Turning Timeshifts should be available for purchase soon from Bluetrix Books.

The Chaos Clock

The Chaos Clock was created as a Kickstarter stretch goal by eSpec Books. The anthology brings together an amazing selection of modern horror writers to create a selection of tales of eldritch horror set in steampunk universes.

My story, "Sky Rivers of Gray," depicts the  aftermath of a 19th century archeologist's obsession with an Egyptian sarcophagus that contains a horrific secret.

The Chaos Clock is available to purchase at Good Reads. A Kindle version is available from Amazon.

You also can watch me read from "Sky Rivers of Gray" on the Galactic Terrors YouTube Channel.

This "Big Box" board game is in development from Open Owl Studios. Threshold is a cooperative game of epic proportions, deep character customization, strategic combat, and an immersive world. where players step into a world torn apart by ancient Thresholds.
