By day I am a mechanical/ biomedical engineer. But that's just to pay my bills. I've always been a creative person and have been sketching since a young age. Later on I became fascinated by graphic design and taught myself to use Photoshop and Illustrator. But becoming a writer wasn't something I had considered until I had a story idea in my head and it just wouldn't go away. I didn't know when I started where this adventure would take me but it's certainly been an entertaining ride. If you like what you read, be sure to check my website for updates, writing progress, and even examples of my art. And please, if you enjoyed my work feel free to leave me a review...here, and/or on Amazon. Thanks. ...more

If I get frustrated I will move on to something entirely different and often times the solution to my plot or character development will hit me as I'm doing something else.(less)

EDEN M51 Book Trailer

Exciting news, maybe, if you don't mind me taking a step back in my writing before I step forward. I've been working on a book trailer for the last few months. It's always been something that's been in my head but I never thought it would be possible for me to actually pull off. Sure, you're thinking: a book trailer? No one really cares about book trailers. They're just a waste of money. Yeah, I a Read more of this blog post »

This was an excellent read.

This is slow-rolling, Lovecraftian horror at its best that builds and builds. The author's prose was unwavering throughout and you could feel the depth of the loss and tragedy in the narrator's voice as he retells his expe

I think that I was more spellbound by the synopsis than the final product. I'm not sure what really did, or didn't, do it for me in this book. I felt that the antagonists were too laughable and stereotypical to be taken seriously

I had high hopes for this story. I was looking for a good, atmospheric scary story. I mean, who doesn't love a horror story with creepy dolls? The first problem, is that they're not really dolls at all, more like highly detailed painted cut-outs. But ...more
