Prequels: So Hot Right Now
I wrote a prequel to the Brooks & Smith series, and I promise it's not because I'm creatively bankrupt. I did it because: I wanted to try my hand at writing short stories. Time travel is convoluted and maybe not the best way to start a series, so this could serve...
Things Are Happening!
Let's just get right to it... I have an audiobook! The very first book in the Brooks & Smith series (Time Binge) is now available on Audible. It'll soon be up on Spotify, Apple, and wherever else fine audiobooks are sold, but I couldn't wait to announce any longer...

Time Purge: A Five-Year Retrospective
As I did with Time Binge, I recently took the time to re-read my second book, which just turned five years old. Here's what I discovered: I love this book. When people ask me which book is my favorite, Time Purge is my answer. I find that it strikes just the right...

Fun Times in a Dystopic Hellscape – Now Available for Preorder
It's heeeere! I finally put the pandemic to good use, and finished one of my works in progress. Actually, I finished two books and a terrible screenplay, but we'll touch on that another day. Here's the blurb: The road to Hell is paved through Indiana. When a...
The Taste Barometer: Comedy Edition
I like listening to 372 Pages We'll Never Get Back, which is a wonderful podcast about terrible books hosted by Mike Nelson (MST3k) and Conor Lastowka (Rifftrax). One of the things they do is employ a taste barometer, either by disclosing their own likes and dislikes...
