Orphans of the Mill:
A Chronicle of Smoke, Silence, and Lost Names
a haunting work of historical fiction about conscience, power, and the price of truth in a town determined to protect its reputation. This novel functions not only as historical fiction but also as a quiet examination of how institutions protect themselves. It uses a nineteenth‑century Georgia mill to pose a perennial ethical question: who has the bravery to ensure the truth is recorded when the system harms the powerless?

I am working on some new Novelettes to be published soon. Some of them will be in a series called "Short Stories from The Dark Between"
Each book in The Dark Between series contains one complete novelette-length story. Read them in any order. The books do not share a continuing plot. You will not need to remember what happened in an earlier volume before reading another. Characters may change. Settings may change. Even genres may change. What connects them are strange, unsettling, and extraordinary things found hiding in the dark between.
Start with the one that calls to you.

I will also continue to write and post short stories of various genres, which you can read here on the "Free Stories Page"
