I’m pitching the dark places where truth hides
Monsters Look Like Us
Why this page exists
I keep a ledger of the outreach that finds me — not to shame, but to document. This page is a forward-facing portal where I put names I’m asking to consider adaptation, collaboration, or conversation.
If your inbox is crowded, mine is noisier; the difference is I write things that linger. If you’re here because someone told you to be, good. If you’re here because you want to be first — better.

What I’m Offering — First Responder Series Bible
The First Responder Series Bible is a complete, voice-driven blueprint for an 18-episode season — gritty, intimate, and stitched with the moral density I mine in prose.
It’s written in first-person because I want the camera to lean in close and never let go. Second Chances (Book 2) and Hemoglobin Insecure (Book 3) follow as natural expansions on the same world.

Please include your company, role, and a brief reason why you want the Bible. I’ll reply with verification steps and a secure file transfer — because paperwork matters and so does discretion.
My Novels — Quick Reference
- Bereft Reality — A sprawling, 1980s-tinged psychological epic about what we do to each other when mercy weakens. (Themes: memory, shame, the monstrous domestic.)
- Picking Murphys — Small town rot and the ways secrets grow roots. (Themes: vengeance, moral fracture.)
- First Responder — Nightshift tales where the healer and the predator look the same; a vampire story dressed in EMS blues. (Themes: hunger, professionalism as a mask.)
- Site 123 — An architectural nightmare that becomes its own character. (Themes: confinement, systems that punish.)
- They Heinous — Brutal, precise, and unflinching. (Themes: public sins, private collapses.)
These are the books I write to prove a single truth: monsters are not out there — they are next door, in suits, in uniforms, in the voice that asks for help.
What I’m asking for
- Serious, verifiable development conversations only — I will request corporate verification for any outreach.
- No unsolicited payment requests. If fees are proposed for scripts/trailers, they must be contractually transparent and negotiated through counsel.
- Respect the voice. Any adaptation must honor the first-person intimacy and moral ambiguity at this work’s core.
