I publish "horror lite" books, exploring the supernatural world and how it overlaps with our own. I find that long wilderness hikes generates the best ideas and am always on the lookout for a good trail, and story. A lifelong reader, I published my first book, "The Onyx Seed", in 2014, which was based on a series of poltergeist experiences I had 30 years ago.
