Growing up in that urban environment planted the seed for the dystopian cityscape he has written about in his debut Steampunk Horror novel FREERUNNERS. His fascination with horror was piqued when he snuck Edgar Allan Poe books from his mother’s bookshelf at a very young age.

Some are real memories, others nightmares, but that is for you to decipher.view less
