About this author

I'm a writer, editor, and graphic designer living in St. Louis, Mo. My first novel, Detours, will be published in November 2011 by Bold Strokes Books. I've been published in the anthologies Paws and Reflect, Fool for Love, and Blood Sacraments, the literary magazine Collective Fallout, and my short story "New Normal" is available for download from Untreed Reads. I have stories coming out this year in Speaking Out, Wilde Stories 2011, and Men of the Mean Streets. Say hello!
