Contact FAQ for readers & listeners

№ 01

BOOKS

Where can I find your books, and do you sell direct?

You can browse every title on the Books page for cover art, blurbs, and the most up-to-date purchase options. I don’t run a direct storefront on this site; instead, each book listing points you to the best places to buy in your region (print, ebook, or both when available). If you can’t find a specific title, send a quick note through the contact form and I’ll reply with the correct link.

№ 02

AUDIOBOOKS

Can I listen to the audiobooks here, and do I need an account?

Yes—this site hosts my self-posted audiobook players so you can listen on-page without creating an account. Press play on the Audiobooks page and you’re set. If audio doesn’t load, try refreshing the page, switching browsers, or disabling an aggressive ad-blocker for this site; you can also message me with your device/browser details and I’ll help troubleshoot.

№ 03

PERMISSIONS

Can I quote your work in a review, blog post, or social media?

Reviews and discussion are welcome, and short quotes are usually fine when they’re clearly attributed to the book and to me as the author. If you want to use longer excerpts, record a reading, translate text, or include passages in a publication or project, please contact me first with the title, the excerpt length, and where it will appear. I’ll let you know what’s okay and what credit line to use.

№ 04

PRESS

Do you do interviews, guest posts, or podcast appearances?

Yes, when my schedule allows. Use the contact form and choose the closest topic (press/interview), then include your outlet name, audience, preferred dates, time zone, and the angle you’d like to cover (book launch, craft, influences, audio production, etc.). If you have a deadline, mention it up front and I’ll confirm availability as soon as I can.

№ 05

EVENTS

Are you available for readings, signings, or virtual events?

I’m open to bookstores, libraries, conventions, and virtual panels—especially when the event is a good fit for horror and dark fiction audiences. Send the venue details, proposed format (reading/Q&A/workshop), event date, and whether travel is required. If you’re requesting promotional assets, include what you need (bio, headshot, cover images) and I’ll share a media-ready kit.

SITE HELP

Something on the site is broken—what info should I send?

Please message me with the page you were on (Books, Audiobooks, or Contact), what you expected to happen, and what actually happened. Helpful extras: the link (URL), a screenshot, your device (phone/computer), browser name/version, and whether you were on Wi‑Fi or cellular. If it’s an audio issue, tell me the audiobook title and timestamp where it fails. That’s usually enough to reproduce the problem and fix it fast.
