I am a writer, a novelist. I write in the Gothic horror tradition: dark and moody; someone once complimented me by saying my second book is "Sleek, sinister, and seductive." I've also been told I am a cross between Clive Barker and Anne Rice. A compliment, indeed.

My Hexology is listed below along with the (prospective) release dates.

Into the Mirror Black is about a haunted house; it was originally released in 2006 but a reissue with new edits and new cover art will be released in October 2009. You can find it at Waldenbooks, Borders, Amazon.com, Stormsong.org--for autographed copies sent to you, among other places. I have scheduled some signings, so I may pop up somewhere near you.

Angels of the Seventh Dawn, released in 2007, is about vampires, wereanimals, a series of mutilation murders, and magic. And there are a few sex scenes in the novel, so it may cause some of you to overheat a bit.

Angels of the Mourning Light, scheduled for June 2009, deals with death--of course--and the creatures who come for you upon death, as well as one man's fascination with Death. It goes along with the first two novels in my kind-of-a series, being set in Western Maryland and continuing the saga of the Scarabae.

Shadows Amongst the Moonlight has the same feel as my second book; I return to the world of vampires, weres, magic, serial killers, and, yes, the world of sex. Look for it in October 2010.

Illusions of Darkness: The Forbidden and will see the light of day when I feel like it--joking. It's a collection of short fiction that deals with the somewhat darker side of human nature, and it is set before book number one. These stories are prequels of a sort: you will read about characters and events leading up to the events in my kind-of-a-series. Look for it in 2011.

Lair of the Scarabae will wind up all the threads of my Scarabae mythology, my Hexology. Be on the look-out for this one in 2012..

Outside of my Scarabae Saga, the first book will be titled Mourning Revelations and it is about what happens when the time comes for you to answer for a terrible thing you've done to someone in the past. Or Cursed, which is about brothers and the world of magic.

Ahh, music. First and foremost: The Queen of Metal, Lita Ford. Strange tastes in music. From the lovely Lita Ford and Doro Pesch--Warlock-- to KISS and WASP to Beethoven and Martina McBride. Doesn't get any more bizarre than that. Britny Fox, Faster Pussycat, Vixen, and White Lion. Big King Diamond fan, from his days in Mercyful Fate (fave MF song "Egypt") to his solo concept album days (fave albums "Abigail" and "The Graveyard"). I love Nightwish. Danzig holds my attention, as does Type O Negative. Pat Benatar because the woman can rock, same for Joan Jett. Anastacia, because she is a hellion. Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper, from Ozzy Osbourne to Heart, from Trick Pony to Enya. And I have a special love for Bonnie Tyler, the raspy vocals do it for me. Told you, I have an ecclectic taste in music. I'm more Blizzard of Ozz then Wizard of Oz.

Movies, movies, movies. Did my time in a movie theatre, so I gotta say I love the movies. From Rosemary's Baby and The Bat to The Lost Boys, Bad Moon, and Shrieker. Horror films are a fave. But one of my all-time favorite films is Apartment Zero--check it out and see what you think. I will pretty much watch anything that can hold my attention, but horror holds a special place in my coffin. I own tons of movies on VHS and DVD, so it's easy to pop one in when the mood strikes.

Which ArchAngel are you most like?

Lucifer. The most misunderstood of all the ArchAngels, you're most like the ArchAngel of Light. You've seen the darkside and have opted for something better. You need better press, though chances are no one will really understand your motives.
