An Amazing Acceptance!
You guys! I received some astronomical news this week. My story “The Dead Collection” was accepted to Michael Bailey’s Chiral Mad 3. I can’t tell you how wild my happy dance was. I love Bailey’s work and his Chiral Mad anthologies are top of the line in every way. I’m also floored by the lineup! I’ll be sharing a TOC … Read More

Vulnerability and Accountability

Gestational diabetes with Middlest, and it simply never went away. That was almost eight years ago. Not only am I diabetic, but I’m wildly uncontrolled. This is because … Read More
