Cowboy Coven, my weird western about love, witchcraft, and what may or may not be Mothman is set to come out in 2027 with Quill & Crow Publishing House! Stay tuned for more information!
This book has been through a lot so I’m happy to see it find a good home.
Hey! My next book, Dropshipped, is available for preorder wherever books are sold.

This satirical creature feature showcases an unlikely duo; a crypto bro teen teams up with a lonely middle-aged mom in order to save the world! It’s gross, it’s apocalyptic, and it’s about online shopping!
What if you ordered a mundane item online and received something monstrous instead? 👀
With comparisons to Gremlins and Critters, I think it’s a lot of nostalgic fun despite the modern setting.
That’s right—Slashic Horror Press will be publishing my next silly and satirical novel, DROPSHIPPED, in July 2025.
This book is a creature feature reminiscent of Gremlins and Critters. A lonely mom orders a kitchen gadget online only to open the package to find something monstrous. The story follows both the mom and the enterprising, but misguided young man whose get-rich-quick business has sparked the apocalypse. It’s a lot of fun! I can’t wait to share it with you.
A cover reveal and preorder are coming soon. Stay tuned!
Pyramidia, my pyramid scheme horror novel, is set to release as an audiobook on July 9! It is available to preorder NOW! Check out Audible, Amazon, or wherever else you get your audiobooks 🎉
Pyramidia is a satirical novel about multi-level marketing, friendship, and vampires. I can’t wait for you to listen!
The narrator is the incredible Eve Passeltiner!

When Harriet moves to Bentwood to teach gifted students, her new life doesn’t go as planned. Between her haunted rental and her oddball neighbor, Lucy-who literally won’t go away—Harriet is left questioning her own sanity. The beautiful Kelsey, whom she meets at the farmers market, offers the distraction she needs. Well, that, and the town’s Multi-Level Marketing (MLM)—or pyramid—scheme.
The enigmatic group of women selling wellness in the form of Serenitea, with their perfect hair, flawless skin, and piercing eyes. She is drawn to the tea, the wellness, the tranquility….. So what if she has to sell a few bags of tea?
You have a new descendant.
Sinking deeper into Serenitea, Harriet can’t stop drinking the tea.
She keeps getting emails about new descendants—whatever the hell that means—and the gym teacher, Harold, is giving serious pervy vibes. Even Lucy joins the MLM despite claiming the women are vampires. None of that matters, though, because Serenitea makes her feel..well. Tranquil.
Until Lucy disappears and Harriet’s world begins to crumble.
Is Serenitea really a bunch of beautiful vampires? So what if they are? How far will Harriet go for tranquility?

I am thrilled to announce that my horror debut, PYRAMIDIA, is to be published in February by Slashic Horror Press!
Harriet hates pyramid schemes. They’re predatory and tear relationships apart. So when she moves to Bentwood and finds the town is overrun with MLMs and girl bosses, she’s horrified. It doesn’t help that her rental is haunted and one of the pyramid schemes seems to be run by literal vampires 🧛♀️ When her friend goes missing, Harriet teams up with the woman she loves to scale the pyramid, wooden stake in hand 🔪
It’s satirical, it’s spooky. It’s just a good time! You can add it to your “to read” lists on Goodreads now! Can’t wait until February! ❤️
