A Rage of Angel
Welcome to "A Rage of Angel." Don't worry, I'm not angry. I'm a writer. An unpaid writer. I submit work to print and online publications. On occasion, they accept it. I (mostly) don't get paid. Nope. Sure don't. Okay. Maybe I am angry. Deep breaths. I need money. I get hungry. *sigh* Pardon my tirade. As I was saying, I'm a writer. Welcome to my site.

Grim and Grisly Shades of Red
GRIM AND GRISLY SHADES OF RED is a collection of my personal favorite horror and suspense short stories I’ve written in the past eight years. It contains previously published works from ezines, print publications, and my out-of-print first book, "The Man of Shadows."
I have no intention of releasing it in print, so the only way to get your hands on it is through your Kindle device.
