Let’s face it, the last few years have been hard on all of us. What better way to deal with the existential stress of modern life than with a nostalgic plunge into your subconscious? The Awful Alphabet is a picture book for adults, which features A. A. Rubin’s twisted verse and Sara McCall Ephron’s surreal art. In the tradition of Edward Gorey’s Gashlycrumb Tinies and Neil Gaiman’s Dangerous Alphabet, but also Go The F*ck to Sleep and All My Friends are Dead, The Awful Alphabet is the perfect complement to the ennui which envelops your heart. 

Adulting is hard. Nourish your inner (emo) child.

Publishing News: Under New Suns Now Available

Under New Suns, a new space opera anthology, is now available for purchase. The science fiction shared-world anthology follows a crew of United Planetary Alliance marines who have stolen a sentient, alien ship. Because they do not know how to operate the alien technology, they fly through a wormhole and are transported to the edge of the known galaxy. The crew must navigate the ship back home, and along the way, the ship becomes pregnant, meet pirates, and encounter space sharks. It’s as wild as it sounds.

My story, “I am I” follows Triangle Alpha 3, a member of The Kern Collective, as he tries to forge his own identity after being cut off from his species’ collective mind.

The anthology also features my daughter’s first published artwork.

Get yours on Amazon or through the publisher, Skullgate Media.
