  • FROM THE ARCHIVE #1 — The Lonely White Walker (2012)

    FROM THE ARCHIVE #1 — The Lonely White Walker (2012)

    Going through old folders tonight, I found The Lonely White Walker—a Walking Dead fanfic I wrote back in 2012—and I was honestly stunned to realize people had reviewed it. Not just clicked on it… actually read it, followed it chapter to chapter, left thoughtful comments, waited for updates. I had forgotten that entirely. And honestly,…

  • Seen / Unseen Greenville: How Fiction Influenced My Reality

    Seen / Unseen Greenville: How Fiction Influenced My Reality

    I’ve talked a lot recently about Greenville, development, local history, gentrification, empty spaces, civic vision, and the strange contradictions that seem to sit underneath this city I love.

  • The Cancer Diet Audiobook Is Coming Soon

    I’m excited (and honestly a little nervous) to share that The Cancer Diet is getting an audiobook. Recording it has been a vulnerable, strange, and surprisingly healing experience, and I’m looking forward to sharing it with you. While the official release link isn’t live yet, I didn’t want to wait to give you a taste.…

  • Unto a Golden Dawn – Dossier 19: The Girl in the Chair

    Filed under: unresolved attachments; memory rendered sacred. The world did not end with fire.It ended with silence. The boy stood still while the world slowed around him, the edges of the warehouse fading into soft, colorless memory. All the watchers—the gods, the folks, even Tesla—stepped back. Only Clara remained close, her breath caught in her…
