About
I've been reading fantasy for as long as I can remember, and gaming since the Atari days. I know, aging myself in the worst way. Or maybe the best? Meh... Somewhere between late-night campaigns, solo healing 25-mans and stacks of dog-eared paperbacks, the stories in my head started wanting out.
I write post-apocalyptic slow-burn fantasy about stubborn communities, found family, and the cost of what we teach the people we love. Or at least that's what I'm writing this year, anyway! When I'm not in Haven, I'm juggling a busy life and family — the ordinary kind of chaos that somehow leaves just enough room for another chapter and a glass of wine, if I'm lucky.
HAVEN'S RISE is Book One of The Shattering Trilogy. Glad you're here, hope you stay. Cheers!
The Book
The road to hell is paved with good intentions, and it starts in Haven.
Six years after the Shattering, Haven has learned to survive.
Micah Rivers helped build the machine that broke the world, and helped silence the warnings that could have stopped it. He's spent every day since trying to bury it.
Then Katriva Voss, Haven's sharpest scout, rides in with a file she was never meant to find. It isn't about Micah.
It's about his son, Jordan.
The Directive wants to save what's left of the world, and they need Jordan to do it — whether he comes willingly or not.
Haven is about to learn what that kind of salvation costs.
Ebook and print coming January 2027.

Think of it as a quiet corner of the campfire for the people who want to hang around a little longer.
