Two Books, One Voice — Preorders Are Live for Unto a Golden Dawn and The Cancer Diet

Well, it’s finally happening.
Two books—radically different in tone, shape, and origin—are now both up for preorder.

One is a story I never thought I’d survive long enough to finish.
The other is a story that may have helped keep me alive.

Unto a Golden Dawn

Release Date: September 19, 2025
Kindle eBook: $7.99
Paperback: $14.99

This is the novel that took me the longest to figure out—and the most out of me in the process.

Unto a Golden Dawn is a metaphysical thriller, a recursive horror story, a fever dream wrapped in literary fragments.
It follows a grieving writer who uncovers manuscripts tied to Edgar Allan Poe and Aleister Crowley, plunging him into a secret war of occult knowledge, alternate selves, and haunted pages.

Do you trust the world you live in? Are you sure it’s the only one?

It’s gothic. It’s intellectual. It’s deeply weird.
And somehow, it’s also personal. This book is about obsession, about memory, about trying to author your own redemption when the pages of your life keep being rewritten.

If you’ve ever loved House of Leaves, The Secret History, or Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, this may be your next descent.


💔 The Cancer Diet: A Memoir

This one hurts more.

I wrote The Cancer Diet because I didn’t know how else to process the year everything shattered.

I found out I had cancer.
I lost my brother unexpectedly that same day.
I tried to hold myself together for my son while quietly coming apart.

This is not a book of advice or false hope. It’s not a prescriptive diet, despite the title.
It’s a memoir about trying to live in a body that’s breaking down. About grief and shame and adoption and survival. About still choosing to care even when it would be easier not to.

I wrote it in fragments—some as journal entries, some as letters to people I lost. Some as desperate prayers to no one in particular.

If you’ve ever had your life upended by illness, death, or simply the weight of being alive… this is for you.


A Personal Note

I don’t have a publisher’s machine behind me. No marketing team. No New York publicist.
Just these books, and the stubborn hope that they might matter to someone else the way they mattered to me.

If you’re able to preorder, review, or simply share the links—it means the world.
If not, I get it. Life is heavy. But if you ever do read these, and they make you feel something—tell me.

That’s the real reward.

With love and ink,
