Is there anything more terrifying than vastness of space? Between the lack of air, the radiation, and freezing temperatures, no other environment is more hostile. Kudos to Pauline Yates for authoring such a rip-snorting novel. It’s a snappy read and it packs a punch. books2read.com/PYates-Shatt...

Set amid corn rows in whistle-stop America, PEARL is the story of a naïve girl, living an insular life on her parents’ farm. More than anything, Pearl dreams of becoming a star. This film is brilliant! an interesting blend between horror and nostalgia #pearlfilm #horroraddict

We on this again.

As the year draws to a close, here are some of the great reads I’ve had in 2023

Some shorts in the works but slow going. Mostly working on the novel. Must have done 6000 words on Tuesday I think #writinglife #writersofinstagram

Throwback to the Halloween we told the kids to write down what costumes they wanted us to get them and they both wanted “Master Chief” but one of them couldn’t spell yet
