WHOA SHIT

i last updated this site in august 2016 – when ONLY BONES came out. since then a few things have happened. i don’t know.

one of them was i had another book published, also from the excellent people over at All Due Respect. the book’s called A NEW AND DIFFERENT KIND OF PAIN and it came out in Feb. 2017.

i’m bad at this whole thing, but the plan is to get better.

i don’t fucking know.
