edit data

D. R. Long writes speculative fiction rooted in quiet horror, survival, and collapse. His stories focus on ordinary people caught in moments where the world tilts and familiar rules stop applying.

Rather than spectacle, his work leans into atmosphere, pressure, and consequence; what it feels like to keep going when systems fail and certainty disappears.

He is the author of multiple novels and novellas, including Slimbies and A World We Never Knew, with many more to come.

KU READS FOR DOGS!!!

For the month of June, I’m trying something a little different.

KU READS FOR DOGS

Every Kindle Unlimited page read across my books during June will be donated to Humane Animal Partners.

I chose Humane Animal Partners because they're a local Delaware no-kill shelter organization and I wanted to keep the donation local.

This is pretty straightforward.
If you have Kindle Unlimited,
and you read my books, Read more of this blog post »
