​
Welcome to my
digital blanket fort.
Praise for Olath's Bride & Ballad of Colt Sturgess.
​
"Loved the characters and the storyline. It’s horror, mystery and a little love story, too."
​
"What a rollercoaster ride! Everytime I think I can relax, Bam! You get me right between the eyes!"
​
"I read a LOT of horror and this one stands out. I like that it's more gothic than gore; more mystery and thriller than sadistic and slasher."
​
"Each part of the story is a separate thread that is woven together to create a new whole mythology set in real small town American. It was fascinating seeing how those individual threads are spun together."
​
"The story drips with nostalgia. The teen characters are very King-esque and I mean that in the most flattering of ways. Great job. Looking forward to the next. Hurry, please!"
​
"The story grabs you so that you cannot put the book down. I look forward to the next book being released. "
​
"Your book was fucking amazing!"
​
"Great book! It’s the second in the series with plenty of twists and turns. I didn’t want to put it down!"

Welcome back to the beginning...
​
"I love how well this story captures the feel of the original show. I'm looking forward to finding out what happens next."
​
"The characters felt like old friends and the story played out just like an old, long-lost episode."
​
"Loved this book! I've read a couple dozen Star Trek books at this point, and I can easily say it's one of my favorites. It was like being thrown into a missing episode."
​
"Wonderful! That was a fun read. Thank you so much for sharing it."
​
"It takes me back to the original series. Every time the computer says 'working' I wanted to leap out of my seat and cheer!"
​
"It took me back to being a kid watching Star Trek in the 1970's and loving every single minute of it!"
​
"Curiosity begs, how long did you study the terminology to write this like you've flown on a starship before?"
