Today I turn 31.
All I want for my birthday is for people to check out my newly released novella LUMBERJACK: tenebrous-press.square.site
Like me it’s historical, weird, macabre, Nebraskan, and filled with prairie terrors.

So what began from an in-joke turned into something new, something unrecognizable
And now it’s out.
Now through their own readings, people can create hundreds of new manifestations of the story of Neville

After all, horror undergirds American history. It is a legacy of violence, destruction and alienation. This rot festers even somewhere as unremarkable as Nebraska and with a figure as seemingly innocuous as Morton

I had an idea for a story involving a silly character from a movie I made in college: Neville the Lumberjack. A story of him going to Nebraska in the 19th century and meeting the founder of American Arbor Day, J. Sterling Morton

When I submitted this to Tenebrous I thought, “if they don’t accept this, I don’t know who will.”
From the beginning, I’ve never really known how l to classify this book

ONE WEEK FROM TODAY🌲🪓💀
The kind of horror you view through slitted fingers, like watching a car crash...but instead of cars it's crashing trees, mythical beasts, unhinged madness & a bloody axe.
And Arbor Day.

For who like historical fiction that isn't overly concerned with historical accuracy, LUMBERJACK is for you.
For those in the other camp... Well, I think you can still enjoy the strange ride.

I don’t know if it’s too early to post this since Lumberjack isn’t out yet, but I figured I’ll get this out there now and can repost later.
I have only two awards eligible works this year, but I think they’re good ones.
