My Dark Flashes collection of dark and twisted short fiction is Available Now!
I never thought I would write horror or dark stuff.
My perception of what horror is has grown to understand there is far more to the genre that I thought before.
It can be suspense. It can be surprises. It doesn’t have to involve death or physical violence. And then at times it does :)
It can be anything!
When Engen Books gave a “Rock Star” award for my work across science fiction, fantasy and horror. I thought wait, what? When did I do horror?
Turns out my dystopian short story Family Business (which is included in Dark Flashes) is just that.
And when things don’t end well for some . . . well, you get it.
Then I entered a lot of NYC Midnight microfiction contests. I received a lot of random genre writing assignments like horror and ghost. And then I started choosing darker endings for stories and characters and societies.
Dark Flashes comes with a mix of mostly flash fiction, a poem and my dark dystopian short story Family Business.
It’s a “wee” book that’s a fast read (under 11K words) Most of the stories are 100 to 500 words long. Think dark, suspense, creepy and well, there is *only one* gory story . . . . . in all sorts of genres from SF to fantasy, thrillers, horror and more!
Because it’s good to get the right folks for the right task to help you shine! Cover designed by A.F. Stewart and editing by Georgia Atkin.
Here’s an idea of what is within . . .
The darker side of what happens when you just . . . shouldn’t. Like . . .

Family Business
Squib spends a lot of time in the Line-for-Basics. Ill and scrabbling for more resources beyond what they could earn this week, Squib has to find a better way. A lot of ways exist to get ahead living in The Towers. It beats the harder scrabble for a safe place to live outside the protected dome. The high ranking citizens of The Towers have figured it out. Just surviving on the basics for food and meds isn’t enough. Time for Squib to crack the code.
Family Business is a stand alone dystopian short story about the character of Squib from my Recycle Series.
It's an origin story that takes place in the early years of The Towers.
What would you give up to get ahead in a resource scarce society?
Family Business is now included in Dark Flashes!
