A Call to Writers: Let’s Build Something Together
There has always been a quiet kind of magic in the written word.Ink on paper. Keys struck in the still of night. A single sentence carrying the weight of a human soul. That magic was never meant to live alone. This space is no longer just a page on a screen—it is becoming a gathering place. A workshop with the lanterns burning late.

Family of Seven Escapes 2 A.M. House Fire; Hartford City Home a Total Loss
I grew up with Emmylou back home in our small Vermont hometown, a place where people knew one another not just by name, but by story. When news reached me that her family had lost their home in a fire, it didn’t feel distant or abstract. It felt personal. These are people I’ve known, laughed with, and watched grow into the kind of family you hope the world treats gently.

When a Review Becomes a Fireside Conversation 🍂🥃

When a Review Becomes a Fireside Conversation 🍂🥃
Some books ask to be finished. Others ask to be savored. Whiskey and the Autumn Wind belongs to the latter—a collection meant for slow evenings, low light, and a glass poured with intention. When a reader described the poems as something to be “sipped like a fine bourbon by a crackling fireplace,” they captured the spirit of the book perfectly. This is poetry that lingers, that speaks softly, and that stays with you long after the final page.

This past year was not about noise or numbers—it was about restoration. About fixing what needed to be fixed, saying what needed to be said, and letting the rest fall away. Books found their readers, covers found their true faces, and one long-held story finally left my hands. As the wind turns…
A Year Tempered by Wind and Ink
A reflective year in review and a look ahead to 2026—new poetry, Whiskey and the Winter Wind, and the launch of The Gemini Project, an MFA thesis novel exploring truth, power, and deception.

As the year draws to a close, I find myself reflecting on the paths walked, the stories told, and the lessons learned. 2025 has been a year of writing through memory, emotion, and the quiet echoes of life’s challenges. From sharing the raw truths of my experiences in The Quiet After the Sirens to…

The wheel of the year turned like a slow tide, and here we stand at its close — rich with stories, hardened by truth, softened by grace. In the quiet places between sirens and silence, 2025 became one of reckoning and resolution. This year I walked through fire and memory on the page. I opened The Quiet After the Sirens…

Whiskey and the Winter Wind: A Slow Return to Self
There was a time when the wind was kinder. Whiskey and the Autumn Wind was written in that in-between season—when the air still carried warmth, when loss felt survivable, when reflection arrived with falling leaves instead of ice. Those poems lingered in amber light and memory, in the slow burn of nostalgia and the ache of things passing naturally, as they always have.

The Crow: Painted in Ash
When the fire stole Lyra’s life, Alaric was left with nothing but ashes, guilt, and the whisper of a crow that refused to let him die. Ashes to Air is a gothic tale of love, loss, and the haunting echo of unfinished goodbyes. Through vivid murals, shadowed vengeance, and spectral grace, Alaric’s journey blurs the line between life and death, art and memory. This story is more than vengeance—it’s the final conversation between souls bound by friendship, love, and the ache of what remains when someone is gone but never truly lost.
