Welcome to my mind...

I am proud to announce that this novel has been SOLD TO DUNDURN PRESS and will be released on August 15th, 2020. Follow me for updates on my journey through the publishing world and I hope you all grab a copy (or two...or three...or...) when it hits bookstores and online retailers. Most importantly, thanks for all the kind words and support. In the meantime, enjoy the first chapter of The Book of Sam! Back Cover Copy: Sixteen-year-old Sam Sullinger lives in the shadow of adolescence. He's lost among his overachieving siblings, constantly knocked down by his harsh father, and bullied daily. His only solace is his best friend and crush, Harper. In a grand plan designed to help him confess his love to Harper, Sam accidentally sets off a series of events that lead to her being kidnapped and taken to Hell. Racked with guilt, Sam makes a bold decision for the first time in his life: He's going to rescue his only friend. Sam is thrust into a vivid world fraught with demons, vicious beasts, and a falling city. And every leg of his journey reminds him that he isn't some brave knight on a quest - he's an insecure teenager yearning to make his mark on at least one world. It's Labyrinth meets the Goonies meets Dante's Divine Comedy. I hope you enjoy it!
