Nephilim

The adventure starts with
House of Mephisto

After a car accident that should have taken her life, Raven awakens to a revelation and a peculiar choice that turns her world upside down. She learns that an ongoing war between angels and demons has been playing out for centuries, and the world of man is the battlefield. She is tasked with stopping the arch demon Mephisto’s plans, a task that leads to becoming mixed up with a dangerous cult. But lives are at stake and this ill-prepared hero in the making will have to make sacrifices to get the job done, as a new and unexpected chapter in her life begins.

Horror fantasy author from
Kankakee, Illinois.

If you’ve ever heard the old folk song, The City of New Orleans, you’ve at least heard the name of the city I’m from. “All along the southbound odyssey. The train pulls out at Kankakee.”  I often tell people I’m addicted to coffee and writing. An all-around geek, I’m into many different fandoms. I have an appreciation for older cars and older things. Music is pretty much anything. And I enjoy video games in my down time.

I have always had a pretty active imagination and a fascination for all things horror, fantasy and science fiction. One of my favorite childhood memories was pretending to be asleep, so I could stay up late to watch horror movies on the tiny black n white tv in my bedroom. To this day, I look forward to the Halloween season for all the horror marathons on tv. I can’t get enough. Even the ‘cheesy’ old ones.

My first published work was “Curse of the Dark Heart”, a short horror story included in Bleed Black Volume 1, (January 2015) an anthology put together by Black Heart Comics to raise money for Juvenile Diabetes.

I love to write. I don’t want to write the next ‘big thing’ I just want to tell a good story. Aside from the Nephilim series, I have a few other works in progress within the fantasy genre and one in science fiction. 

I'm seeing gaming mouse pads with wireless phone chargers. Can we get one with a built-in warmer for coffee?

The space bar on my keyboard broke. @CORSAIR, this keyboard has seen many Warcraft raids and PVP battles; it did not survive the war in my next novel. #author

I've been writing all weekend. One of the challenges I face right now is time management. It's difficult when your 'day job' is freelance. I have to set my own time boundaries and stick to them. #authorlife
