Troubadour Magazine: Pandemic Issue

I should have posted this a while ago, but life got in the way. I've been collaborating with other creative types on the most recent issue of Troubadour Magazine, a literary magazine founded by Kirk Barbera. Troubadour is dedicated to preserving and promoting the Western Canon of literature while striving to emulate the style and substance of the classics in new and original works as well.

The essence is reflected in the magazine's motto:

"That all may know the Good, The Beautiful and The True."

This most recent issue is dedicated to the theme of pandemics, plagues, and other forms of contagion and our response to these events.  

I contributed a couple of pieces to the issue, including a brand new story called "The Inside Woman."

The magazine is available for purchase online and in print. Get it today!

Halloween Storytime on Pinkerton's Ghosts

This Halloween, audiences everywhere will have the opportunity to hear my dulcet tones on the Pinkerton's Ghosts Horror Podcast!

I will be joined by other authors reading some of our favorite horror stories. I will be reading the Robert E. Howard short story Rattle of Bones. Follow the link to read along.

For those not familiar, this story features Solomon Kane - the grim English Puritan dedicated to fighting evil across continents. Rattle of Bones finds Kane in a secluded inn deep in the Black Forest in Germany.

Fair warning: I am no orator, much less a voice actor (I stick to writing), but don't let that stop you from listening! It's a great story, and there will be others reading who are far more talented than I. 

Notwithstanding my voice talents, recording the story was a whole lot of fun and I am grateful to PG for the opportunity.

Pinkerton's Ghosts is a horror anthology podcast following the Paranormal Pinkerton Agency, whose mission is to discover paranatural and supernatural happenings, investigate what they can, and prevent widespread knowledge of the events or artifact in question.

Check out the podcast on YouTube Halloween night starting at 7pm EST.
