edit data

D. R. Long is a Delaware indie author writing quiet, strangely hilarious, haunting stories that rarely stay inside a single genre.

His work follows ordinary people through impossible situations, from apocalyptic collapse and moral horror to vampires, demons, terrible decisions, and road trips through Hell. No matter how strange the world becomes, his stories remain grounded in consequence, human connection, and the families people choose along the way.

He also runs #KU4Dogs, a reading initiative that turns Kindle Unlimited page reads into support for animal shelters and rescues through monthly donations. Readers can join in simply by reading his books through Kindle Unlimited. Learn more at:
