Pre-order THE RAIN
Greetings fellow Goodreaders,
My debut traditionally published novel releases this summer on July 18th, 2023! Some of you may have read the old self-published version years ago. I am happy to say that after years of edits with my literary agent and the great editors at Blackstone Publishing, THE RAIN is essentially a brand new book. There is an entirely new narrative, following a scientist from the beginning of the climate disaster. This narrative alternates with Tanner and her story, which has been improved through the help of so many great editors and professionals. I hope you take the journey again, or for the first time, into the gritty world of THE RAIN. See link in my BIO for places you can order the book, and sign up to be my Pen Pal and win a copy through soon-to-come giveaways. Thanks all!

After The Rain: Introducing WIPE
There was an overwhelming response to the poll I set up at the end of The Rain Trilogy. Many of you asked for a new story in a new world with new characters, written in the same captivating style that The Rain was written. Now, that new journey is set to begin. (If you want to read more about my final thoughts on The Rain—beware of spoilers—then go here.)
Introducing WIPE, a brand new post-apocalyptic story. The blurb and FAQ is below the cover.

Neighborhood Watch is Out!
Fall, 1995.
Holson is a sleepy, middle-class suburb, whose most interesting news amounts to farmer’s markets and Friday night football games.
When young Brandon Grey disappears, no one thinks he’ll be missing for long. When another boy vanishes, parents begin to worry about their children. When bodies turn up in the local river, cut to pieces, stuffed inside industrial-strength black trash bags, the town begins to shut down.
The day that Brandon Grey is last seen walking home from school by teachers, two young boys are starting a street hockey game. A man stops at the end of their block, takes a picture of them, and drives off. All they catch is the model and color of the car he’s driving.
Jake and Colin, fueled by their ambition to form a detective club, decide to go searching for the car that haunts them. They soon take it upon themselves to find Brandon Grey. As tensions in town rise, and so does the body count, they find themselves deep in a mystery they never bargained for, closer to the serial killer than they could have ever imagined.
