Whispers From The Depths - Now on audiobook

I'm pleased to announce that Whispers From the Depths has been released in audio book format. You can scurry over to Audible to download it now, but first, maybe you should check out this launch promo from the early days of the internet.

Out Now: Places We Fear to Tread

An anthology of horror stories about the places that haunt us and inspire fear. My story, Devil's Elbow, is drawn from the Lady in White legend from where I grew up, but it's a tale all its own.
