Works in progress

I am currently in the process of revising a novel and short story collection.

The psychological suspense novel, RANDOM SELECTION, follows two college students, Travis Baker and Selma Osorio, who find themselves on opposite sides of a mysterious memory drug experiment. As the new drug’s eerie side effects take hold, Travis begins to recall events connected to a recent missing child’s case that puts both his and Selma’s lives at risk.

The short story collection is written in a similar “Midwest Gothic” style and features pieces told from the point-of-view of characters at varying stages of life, from children to nonagenarians. Several of these stories have been or are soon-to-be published. They are also stories deeply rooted in a sense of place.

Whether in short or long form, my fiction explores opportunities for empathy, growth, and connection.
