June 2025
Release date for Alone Together! Book give away opportunity! I narrate a popular short story in Birds with Words. Man... is there anything else?
Alone Together - June 25, 2025
The wait is over — Alone Together is officially here! 🎉
All versions will be available June 25, 2025!
I’m thrilled (and a little terrified) to finally unleash this story into the world. This is Book 1 of my new horror/post-apocalyptic series, and I can’t wait for you to dive into the chaos, heartbreak, and terror I’ve been working on.
What else are we getting? Alone Together has the expanded backstories you all know me for. Some of these stories are already on my blog! I will continue to add stories as I write the coming entries for the series. But here’s what’s important… remember when I talked about hardcovers and their cost back in March? Well, as I mentioned in that post, I wanted to give fans who purchase a hardcover a little more bang for their buck. The hardcover will include short stories in the back, along with snippets of dedicated art! Don’t miss the giveaway below!
When the world ends, survival is only the beginning…
Their goal: Survive.
It’s been brewing, spreading for months. The line between soldier and civilian is blurred.
In the cities, more than a third of the population is carrying the contagion and turning into hyper-aggressive predators.
Now a group of survivors must band together and face the chaos of the new world.
Alone Together
Order your copy now! There are two editions of the hardcover, one from Amazon and One from Barnes & Noble. If you like jacketed hardcovers with color images, you will want the Barnes & Noble edition.

Early Reviews
“There are multiple POVs in this, which keeps the story punchy and interesting. I truly felt for the cast, in one way or another (whether it be loving them, feeling bad for them or straight up hating them). This story packs a huge punch and I’m already ready to read the next installment of this future series.” - Saffron Asteria (host of Booked and Indiosyncrasy) GoodReads Review
“It's pretty explosive and very much calls out the reactions governments had early on with COVID.” - GoodReads Review
“Brilliantly chaotic! This book perfectly displays the pinpoint moment everyone's world collapses.” - GoodReads Review
“I gotta say it hooked me from the beginning. An intense journey detailing the fall of everything we hold so dear. If you like zombies and military fiction this is for you! 5 stars, awesome…” - E.H Bradley GoodReads Review
“This book legit gave me nightmares where I was stuck in this world.” - Faith (One Eye Monster) GoodReads Review
“Once you read the first chapter, even the first paragraph you're hooked until the end. I cannot recommend this book enough!” - GoodReads Review
‘News’ within Alone Together
Those who read the advanced reader copies (ARC) of Alone Together will tell you that news plays an important role in the first chapters. I thought it would be a great way to grow interest with small news clippings on social media as subtle advertisements. These snippets also feed into the background of the story. Readers will find snippets of events that are referenced within the pages of Alone Together.





This cycle of news themed promotions also feeds into the trailers I created for Alone Together. You can see my current book trailers on my YouTube channel.

Birds with Words, Episode 5: Hero's Downfall - Narrated
To celebrate the coming release of Alone Together I have a special episode for you.
After the success of Hunted’s narration, I was asked if the longer, and arguable more connected story to Sinner’s Pass, Hero’s Downfall would be narrated. With certain constraints, I struggled on getting this demanded story narrated. So, I have decided to do it myself! With the liberty of doing this myself, I have added music and sound effects for certain scenes.
All the Socials!
Don’t forget you can follow me on your preferred social media platforms. I also want to remind you on my Buy Me a Coffee (BMAC) you can buy signed copies of my books, donate to my coffee fund, and even get your name into one of my short stories or novels!
Don’t forget supporting an artist doesn’t mean financial support. A “like,” “follow,” or re-share on social media helps. Let your friends know!
Sinner’s Pass
The Tome Tavern is an online book reviewer. Generally focused on Fantasy and Science Fiction, the owner has dipped into doing Horror! Sinner’s Pass is the first horror novel reviewed. If you are on the fence of picking up Sinner’s Pass, check out Tome Tavern’s review!
Dark Veil Society - Horror as a new domain
The Dark Veil Society now has a dedicated location to make it easier for readers to find authors. If you like horror, you will find someone who writes what you are looking for in DVS.
Holy ****!
Are you still reading this far down? Awesome!
I’m also celebrating my previous two novels by lowering their price. June 1st-3rd Sinner’s Pass will be reduced in both the US and UK markets! June 4th-7th A Fold to Extinction will be reduced price for both the US and UK markets!
A Fold to Extinction was released in June two years ago and Sinner’s Pass is reaching the one-year anniversary in September!
