In addition, after a long struggle maintaining a social media presence, I've decided to remove myself entirely from all platforms. I will miss the interactions and other fun and interesting moments, but I've never been very good at such things, being more of a solitary type who prefers to listen and watch from a distance. My "last stand" was on Mastodon, which has been a true eye-opener, a platform that showed me it's still very much possible to be online without the baggage of a centralized space. It's also from Mastodon where I rediscovered my affection for DIY site-building using some good old self-taught HTML, which eventually led to the creation of my recent static site, which I also unfortunately had to give up.
So for those of you who've kept up with me all these years since 2008, thank you so, so much for your dedication and especially your patience, slogging through my back list with all the highs and lows of my writing. It's absolutely humbling knowing someone out there is willing to take a chance on me, and I'll forever be grateful to all of you. Thank you.
NEWEST RELEASE
The book gallery page over here will give readers some insight as to what went on behind the scenes when I wrote this. The book is 50K-words long and is available in e-book for 99 cents and in print for $9.00 USD.
If you wish to support me directly, you can purchase the e-book from my Payhip store, and here's a bonus: to promote this book as well as the Grotesqueries collection, I'm offering a BOGO sale through March. If you purchase a copy of Doppelgänger, you can get another book from the same collection (only the Grotesqueries collection, mind you!) for free. This is a great chance for folks to try out my long novella gothic horror series.
For other online stores, go here for the book's Books2Read page.
RECENT RELEASE
You can also support me directly by purchasing a copy from my Payhip store. I only offer DRM-free Epub files, but those can be sent to Amazon for conversion to their proprietary format for Kindle devices and apps.
This is a historical fantasy story taking place in a fictional town somewhere in England but with a lot of modern influences and elements. It's also set in the murky past circa 19th century (my go-to historical period) with a generous sprinkling of anachronistic language for humorous effect.

The book is priced at 99 cents for the e-book and $9.00 USD for print. If you get a copy, I hope you enjoy it!
