Hey everyone! I hope you all had a Merry Christmas/Happy Holiday/Joyous Pagan Appropriation Day! We’re closing out the year and barreling toward a new one, and I’m here with a late present (can it be considered a gift if you have to do something for it, though?) for all of you amazing people.
My latest novel OUR FATHERS’ BURDEN is due out February 16th via WICKED HOUSE PUBLISHING, and the cover is gorgeous.
Here is a quick synopsis:
After tragedy strikes his family, Harry is left with nothing but sorrow, grief, and a mysterious box whose contents leave him shaken to the core. Everything he thought he knew about his father teetered on the edge of lies. Despite this, he decides to carry out his father’s final wish: to continue the family tradition of the annual camping trip.
Accompanied by the sons of his father’s friends, Harry hopes to learn the truth about the secrets his father was hiding out in the woods of the Appalachian Mountains. What the five men find waiting for them out in the familiar wilderness is more horrific than they could have ever imagined. The burden their fathers carried is now theirs, and now they must pay the price.
We have just over a month and a half until release, but what if I told you that you could read it today?
I’m running a special reward over at my Patreon (where I already have a novella, novelette, and multiple short stories available to read), where if you join at certain tiers between now and December 31st, you’ll get awesome rewards!*
At the $10 tier called “New Horrors+” or higher you’ll receive the ARC of the novel in ePub or PDF form, as well as a signed physical copy of the novel after release.
At the $20 tier called “Every Fear Imaginable” you’ll still receive a signed a copy of the book and the ARC, but you’ll also get a signed, numbered, limited edition manuscript of an older draft of the book! There’s not a lot of changes, but this will be an extremely limited number that exist in the world.
*To receive these benefits, you must be a Patron between January 1st and March 1st without any breaks.
You can join my Patreon at the link below and all of these goodies (plus everything else to come - I plan to release multiple novellas/novelettes/short stories throughout 2024 and this will be the only place to find them for some time) will be yours!

Thank you all for a great year!
Until next time,
