Greetings. Posted here are links to three complete short stories, samples of my published short fiction in genres ranging from horror and fantasy to science fiction. Also included is news about recent and forthcoming publications. I hope you find the contents and links both interesting and entertaining. 

"SCAVENGER"

In Earth's near future, where famine rules all, a desperate man risks everything to scavenge bits of alien wreckage from a crashed spacecraft to sell for food. Luck is with him this night when he finds a priceless alien artifact, but he’s stayed too long in the secured, walled-in crash-site. Now he must find his way out through the darkness and the shifting alien jungle before he’s caught, or worse.

"Scavenger" was first published in the anthology, Delirium Corridor in 2020."  Read the story as a PDF copy below..
