Author of books and Creepypastas. Former corrections Officer. My most popular books are my Dark Tales of Cryptids series of horror, along with my combination novel of horror and dark humor (Misadventures of a Cryptid Hunter). I’ve also published 2 crime/mystery novels based in a prison, a YA novel, a children’s horror book ALA Goosebumps, 2 domestic thrillers, along with several short horror story collections.

My latest book, 'Dark Tales of the Strange and Bizarre' is a group of short stories that could feel right at home in a Poe book or an episode of The Twilight Zone.

 Currently working on my upcoming series of zombie novels. Some of my stories have been narrated by youtubers, garnering nearly 6 million views.
