As many publishers and readers want to get to know the person behind the work, here’s a little bit more about me: I am an avid art collector and enjoy playing board and role-playing games, junk store thrifting, and mail art. My kindred animal is the deer, though if I were a dog I’d be a Beagle.  My favorite foods are unagi don or broiled calamari steak and frosting with or without cake.

Nat1 Publishing

I am a writer and illustrator through Nat 1 Publishing, also serving as a Member of the Board.

My writing has been published in fantasy and horror themes including poetry and alternative pieces, as well as erotica published under my alternate identity horrorotica writer Penny Blood.

Here is a link to the blog devoted to my Witch Hayzelle infomercial mogul persona as featured in my solo chapbook series, Witch Hayzelle’s Recipes for Disaster (which can be found among my books on the bottom of my writing page here).  The blog features photos of recipes from the books as well as fun reader / audience participatory projects.

Weird Wyrlds

I joined up with some other content creators from Haunted MTL to embark on our own website Weird Wyrlds where I am posting artwork, poetry, short stories, and other creative content every Sunday at noon EST.

Our goal in creating this website was to offer reviews and fun, unique horror content much like the old site had, since review sites had become significantly less common. I helped design the site logo and incorporated strange art into most of my postings to give them a more consistent feel than my earlier Haunted MTL posts.

The website will officially launch on Friday, March 13, 2026.

Haunted MTL

I was a regular contributor for Haunted MTL generating creative content as well as the occasional interview, memoir, and review. I posted mainly artwork, poetry, short stories, and some videos.

I reviewed several board games and have contributed to their Lighter than Dark series with faux advertisements and articles.  I started a segment on Nightmarish Nature reflecting on the world around us and its diverse denizens, from flora to fauna and beyond.

The website was discontinued at the end of March 2025.
