I'm a bit late in posting this, but "Seaworthy" has a new home at  Bewildering Stories as of a couple months ago. Many thanks to them for making the story available to readers again!

Somehow almost two years have passed since my last post. In that time, I've done some writing, but I've done more reading about writing. The best book I read, maybe my new favorite book on writing, was A Swim in a Pond in the Rain . A couple other favorites: Alone with All That Could Happen and Creating Fiction .  I learned a lot but, in hindsight, I probably should have kept writing as well. Tim Clare's 100 Day Writing Challenge helped me get back in the habit.  When I started this website, it was meant to be temporary until I put something fancier together. Almost five years have passed, but I hope to finally refresh the look sometime this year. Ideally to coincide with the publication of a new story. While I work on something new, I'm hoping to find a new home for my last story, "Seaworthy," as Teleport Magazine seems to have gone dark. Thanks for reading and I hope you're well.

 Thrilled to report that my story "Seaworthy" was published today in Teleport Magazine. Check it out at the link below and let me know what you think! Thanks! Seaworthy - Teleport Magazine 1/25/25 update: Unfortunately, Teleport seems to have gone offline sometime late last year. I hope to find a new home for it soon.

 I'm happy to share that I have a short near future story, "Under Quota," in the new issue of The Weird and Whatnot , which is available in digital and print through Amazon along with a bunch of other great stories.

"Bait" is live at Dark Fire Fiction ! Check it out and let me know what you think.

I am pleased to report my first short story publication. Dark Fire Fiction has informed me that "Bait" will be appearing on their website sometime next month. "Bait" previously received an honorable mention in Volume 36/63 of Allegory .
