Bewildering Stories biography

I’m retired from the University of Wisconsin-Madison Benefits Office, and live with my wife in Madison, Wisconsin. I’ve always been a reader of fiction of all genres, but weird and unsettling stories are my favorites.

A few years after my retirement, encouraged by an old high-school friend who is a retired English teacher, I became a voracious writer. As with my reading preferences, I most enjoy cranking out disturbing stories. It does not bother me a bit to kill off the “good guy.”

My work has appeared in Black Petals, Bewildering Stories, Yellow Mama, Theme of Absence, Near To the Knuckle, Dark Dossier, One Sentence Poems, Shotgun Honey, Cease Cows, Birds Piled Loosely, Spelk, and a number of other online and print journals.

My first novel, Unweaving a Tangled Web, was published by Hekate Publishing in the Fall of 2020. It is the first in a series of stories about Private Detective, Carl Vincent, a former NYPD detective who rights wrongs in New York City.
