Give me vampires, ghosts, werewolves, and other things that go bump in the night, and I’m happy as a clam. My writing reflects that as well as my sense of humor. I don’t think I’ve written anything that doesn’t have one character that provides some element of comic relief.Q: What books do you write?A: I write fantasy, horror, and now sci-fi for both young adults and adults. I’ve also dabbled with YA Paranormal Romance and would like to sink my feet into that again. And, I have an idea for a historical. But the historical requires a lot of research and is many moon off.THE MARKER CHRONICLESSORROW’S POINT (book 1)SORROW’S EDGE (book 2)SORROW’S TURN (book 3)SORROW’S LIE (book 4)Q: Why should readers pick up your books?A: The Marker Chronicles is one of those weird stories.

    Paperback (Crescent Moon Press, Oct. 1, 2013)
    Not all exorcists are created equal- especially those that are "marked". When defrocked ex-priest, Jimmy Holiday, agrees to help an old friend's sick daughter, Lucy, he unearths unexpected horrors. Blackmoor, his friend's new residence, has a dark history that makes it appear almost alive. Jimmy must decide if Lucy is only ill, or if the haunting of the house and her apparent possession are real. After the house begins affecting him as well; seeing colors of magic and his voice taking on an unusual power, Jimmy discovers that he is apparently "marked". Whatever being "marked" means, Jimmy doesn't care. He wants to help Lucy. Helping Lucy means performing the exorcism. Jimmy knows the ceremony, but it's belief that matters. And if a demon is using a little girl as a meatsuit, his faith had better be strong enough to kick it back to Hell. Otherwise, he might damn them both.
