This often blends elements of fantasy, science fiction, and horror into one unholy abomination.He is the author of both Up from the Deep, Touched by Shadows, and Deepspore: Death Below the Sea.

Vaughn is an Affiliate HWA member who lives near Baltimore with his girlfriend and two gremlins disguised as the world's cutest kittens. His dog Constantine has also demanded acknowledgment in his bio. Sometimes he wonders why everything he writes ends up scary, but doesn't believe in questioning things that work.
