Holiday Hijinks – Haunted Holidays
A long-running series of themed holiday anthologies. This year the theme was Holiday Hauntings. I’m thrilled that my story, “A Little Christmas Spirit” was accepted. A woman who lost her own child helps the ghosts of other children celebrate the Christmas they never had. Due out November 29th.

42 Anthology
I believe this anthology is due to release on November 24th. This is the wild idea: 42 categories of stories, each with 42 stories, each story exactly 42 words long. The titles are also exactly 42 characters. My short is in the Mystery category. In keeping with the spirit of the thing, here are the first 42 characters (excluding spaces): “After the truck hit its rear bumper at 40 miles per h”

The Ghosts of Christmas Present
This long-ish short story was part of the 2021 Home for the Holidays anthology. I’m now releasing it as a stand-alone.
Lyndsay Williams reluctantly returns home for Christmas only to find her brother has brought a friend to spend the holidays with them. He’s the last man she wanted to meet again.
