MY FOURTH FULL-LENGTH short story collection, Sacrificing Virgins, is due to be released the first week of December — it’s available for pre-order now on Amazon — but if you’re going to be at HorrorHound Weekend in Indianapolis this weekend, you can grab a preview copy directly from me! I…
It’s been a pretty crazy month for me — aside from having our kitchen completely ripped up as it is being redone floor to ceiling, I was also out of the country for work for a week… so I’m afraid I’m remiss in announcing the winners of last month’s The…
TODAY I’M HAPPY to turn my blog over to Catherine Cavendish. Her new novella, Dark Avenging Angel debuts tomorrow from Samhain Publishing, and I, for one, am looking forward to reading it. After all… demons are involved! But… I’ll let her tell you about it: La Sayona – Siren of…
MY EIGHTH NOVEL, The Family Tree, was released late in the fall last year, but it’s totally a “summer” book. All the events take place in a backwoods locale in the midst of summer… So this week, it’s like a re-launch — my publisher, Samhain Publishing, has put the novel…

Gagliani, David Benton, Chris Welch and Christine Verstraete and meeting very cool folks like Matt Forbeck, Alex Bledsoe, Paul Dale Anderson and James Frenkel. There were panels. There was craft beer. There was a…
A LOT OF PEOPLE have asked me if I’m going to write a sequel to my sixth novel, NightWhere. I do want to eventually… I’ve always been interested in exploring the character of Selena more. But, that’s not what I’m currently working on. Never enough time to write all the…
