Greetings, lovers of fine literature!
Sorry you blundered onto the wrong site.
You’ll have to settle for snarky talking swords, goofy pirates, oozing zombies, and poop monsters. Loads of poop monsters.

Sorry I haven’t been updating this page. But I have a REALLY great excuse.
I’m now the proud owner of a certified pre-owned heart (!)
As of April 7, 2019, I’m running on a new engine.
I just wrote a comical nonfiction book about the experience (apparently the only one ever).
HeartSnark: a literally light-hearted account of my heart transplant (Kindle)
Also in paperback.

I have a story in the new Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers anthology, False Faces.
The previous anthology, which also contributed to, won the Colorado Book Award.
This one was also nominated, but did not win.

My story “Outside the Realm of Time” (golem vs. zombies in 1899 Denver–woo-hoo!) will appear in next year’s Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers anthology (the one above took home this year’s Colorado Book Award). That makes 3 out of the past 4 anthologies that I’ve been in, and 2 of those were finalists or winners of the CPA.

I now have a YouTube channel, Mr. Shakespeare Reads, where I
recorded myself reciting all 154 of Shakespeare’s sonnets in
full doublet and ruff (as one does).
