Fiction

I have been telling stories for as long as I can remember.

As a teenager, I filled notebooks with poetry, short fiction, and the beginnings of a horror novel that was never finished—and eventually lost. Life pulled me in other directions, and for many years, writing was buried beneath careers, responsibilities, and reinvention.

But stories have a way of resurfacing.

After years of silence, they began returning without warning—demanding to be written. One story became many. Pages piled up. Sleep was sacrificed. The voice I thought I lost came back sharper than before.

Now, I write dark fiction rooted in horror and crime, where fear, obsession, and human flaws take center stage—often tempered with flashes of dry humor. My work explores what hides beneath polite conversations, closed doors, and carefully constructed lives.

Somewhere in the background, that first unfinished novel still waits. I haven't forgotten it.
