I'm looking to expand my list in 2026. Will be updating my MSWL soon. In short, hoping to acquire more in the following spaces: - Illustrators - Religion/Spirituality - Platform-driven, prescriptive nonfiction/business - Dark fantasy (adult and kids) with a supernatural bent

I'm heading to Atlantic City this weekend for KingCon. I'll be there as a fan first, agent second...but if you're a writer and you see me around, feel free to come say hello. "I signed an author at KingCon" would be a cool thing to be able to say

I’m rereading PET SEMATARY right now. It’s been about 30 years since I was last in Ludlow. It might be the best writing that @StephenKing has ever done. The prose is absolutely stunning and almost every sentence is perfect. Just a masterpiece of a novel

Sometimes you're happy, And sometimes you cry. Part of me is ocean, And part of me is sky.

I apparently missed the memo that stated that everyone was going to hit the ground running at 9,000 MPH starting at 12:01 AM on the Tuesday after Labor Day this year

He was every nightmare I've ever had. My worst dream come true. Everything I ever was afraid of. Beep Beep to a legend. Off to Other Worlds Than These.

There will never be a more riveting four minutes of cinema than Robert Shaw’s Indianapolis speech in Jaws. And honestly, nothing will ever come close. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched it, but it never loses its weight. Just a complete gut punch every single time

Still actively looking to add a good Western to my list. #MSWL

Until next year, Pittsburgh. And congrats to all of last night’s Stoker winners! As always, leaving @StokerCon energized (and exhausted), grateful (and in awe), and eager (and scared) to read some amazing horror submissions. #StokerCon

There was no way I could head out to Pittsburgh for #StokerCon without making a little pit stop. If you know, you know. They were right. This place is just as real…but not as brightly lit.

I can't believe we're only a week out from StokerCon. I'd better get myself mentally and physically prepared.

Authors beware: there’s currently a large-scale scam running where “editors” at major publishers reach out expressing interest in your previously published work. The names are legit, but the email addresses usually aren’t. So be careful

Another successful #ThrillerFest in the books. Let the countdown to #StokerCon begin.

In NYC gearing up for #PitchFest. I don’t know how long the doors will hold. #thrillerfest

I can't believe it's already #Thrillerfest week again. I better start preparing myself

Wildly behind on my submissions right now; hoping to make some good progress this month

I've been completely messed up in the head ever since

It always blows me away how at almost every sports bar where there are multiple TVs and a bunch of different games always on, the bartenders never know how to work the remote

The way the Patriots won this game must make so many people so furious I can’t stop laughing

I don’t know how they managed to hype the AFCC the way they have, but it’s impressive. People are acting like this isn’t a game between two overachieving teams, one on year 1.5 of a rebuild and one starting a backup QB, and instead it’s some kind of legacy-altering deathmatch

Wow people still really, really, really hate the Patriots. Man I missed this
