You can not think what you can not write. And we write a lot. Sin Walks Into the Desert was named Shelf Unbound’s Best Indie Novel of 2015. And The Nihilisticats was named Indie Reader’s 2024 Pop Culture Novel of the Year. Below, you’ll find three recent releases.
chatterhat
A paranoid thriller in which our (oddly evasive) protagonist chases the girl that got away, and finds a (possibly mythical) criminal mastermind, a (probably nonexistent) cat-eating goat monster, some whispering neighbors, a mysterious typist and a whole bunch of other stuff that isn’t (strictly speaking) normal, recognizable, or easy to make sense of.
Chatterhat is funny though. In an absurdist, Big Lebowski-kind of way.
The Epshire Novellas
In the summer of 1995, four axe-wielding maniacs descended upon the tiny college utopia of Epshire. Sever and Camille tell this story in two distinct ways. Sever narrates the events from Leo’s point of view. He’s a somewhat naive but very popular athlete who is trying to reconcile himself with the end of college and the beginning of adulthood. Camille is told from the perspective of a young witch, who is only now learning the extent of the dark powers inside her.
The Epshire novellas can be read in either order, but they are best read back-to-back. Neither Leo or Camille fully understands the events of 1995. They complete each other.
The Owl and Raccoon novellas
Owl and Raccoon are two quiet, determined missing persons detectives. And in each of these three novellas, they hunt for a missing kid. These are classic, fair-play locked room mysteries, in which the clues are shared with the reader.
You can read ‘em separately, or plow through the box set. Each mystery stands on its own. But Owl and Raccoon develop as characters as the series progresses.
