Operation Backlog Completion 2026

As you might recall, the horror anthology Final Masquerade (which includes my short story “The Artist”) became unavailable after the publisher changed hands.

Now Final Masquerade is back, in both ebook and print formats, with a new cover.

“The Artist” came out last year and is my most recent publication, but don’t forget that you can look forward to “Nightmare Stalker” this summer!

In other (non-horror, non-writing) news, I updated Monday’s blog post to include the official announcement of Tokyo RPG Factory’s new game, the unusually-titled Lost Sphear. It’s one of many games I’ll be looking forward to in 2018.

Have you read “The Artist” yet? If not, will you be picking up Final Masquerade now that it’s available again?

Last October, my short horror story “The Artist” was published in an anthology called Final Masquerade.

The publisher of Final Masquerade, Lycan Valley Press, has changed ownership. During this transition, all of their books, including Final Masquerade, will be temporarily unavailable.

Once the transition is complete, it will be available again. Once it is, I’ll update the links and make an announcement.

In the meantime, don’t forget to look forward to “Nightmare Stalker,” another one of my horror stories, which will be out this July as part of the Gods & Monsters line from The Book Smugglers.

And on the video game side of things, my work on Ascendants Hearts is going well, as are my other projects, such as the recently released Trials of Olympus III. Stay tuned!

I’m excited to announce that my horror story “Nightmare Stalker” has been chosen by Book Smugglers Publishing for publication as part of their Gods and Monsters theme.

“Nightmare Stalker” is the story of a young woman who returns to her family’s home and discovers a terrifying secret in their past.

As she reads old letters once sent to her great-grandfather, she learns the legend of a demon said to stalk people in their nightmares… and soon she fears she is the demon’s next victim.

I wrote the first draft of “Nightmare Stalker” quite a while ago… maybe 6 years ago? Since then, it’s undergone numerous edits, critiques, and revisions.

I’d like to thank everyone who helped me with it, with a special thank you for my mom, who translated some lines into German for me.

I hope you enjoy the finished story when it comes out… and I hope your nightmares remain demon-free.

Gods and Monsters is the Summer 2017 theme for The Book Smugglers, and we’re hoping to have “Nightmare Stalker” published in July. I’ll keep you updated!
