East Coast Canadian Author writing Southern Gothic tales for his own amusement. My stories focus on the relationships between mother's and sons, focusing on the core belief that circumstances and environment do not determine one's morality or faith.  I chose this genre for its gritty, decaying environments, its strong voices, its ability to illuminate everyday issues under extraordinary and often supernatural plots. Plus I like a bit of dark irony and humor.  
Please come in, sit a spell and enjoy a tale. Leave a comment, share your thoughts...and I live and die by the next great suggestion so feel free.
