WHAT HAS ME NOW
This is what has my attention while the writing keeps moving and the world around it keeps pretending it is harmless.
Some of it is work. Some of it is survival. Some of it is distraction with a pulse. Some of it is the quiet practical side of life that still has to happen while I build books, pages, videos, and a larger body of work meant to stay with you after you leave it.
If you want to know where my time goes, what keeps pulling me back, what matters enough to remain in rotation while everything else shifts, it is here.
Agents
This remains the center point because the work is already built, the books already exist, the world is already structured, and the larger adaptation push is already taking shape. I am not waiting to become serious about it. I need the right person to recognize what is already here and help move it where it belongs.
That is still the hardest pull in the room.
What Holds My Attention
Writing
Writing is still the foundation beneath everything else. Whether I am shaping a page, pushing deeper into a manuscript, or refining the larger architecture around the books, the work always returns to language, pressure, tone, and the quiet moment where something turns and does not turn back.
Web Design
The site matters because presentation matters. If the books are built with control, the pages surrounding them should feel the same way—clean, dark, deliberate, and shaped to let readers, viewers, and industry people step into the work without the page itself getting in the way.
Cyberpunk 2077
Cyberpunk 2077 gives me a world with velocity, danger, and atmosphere that never really settles. I enjoy playing female V, moving through a city that feels sharp at every edge, and spending time in a setting where style, violence, identity, and consequence all keep crowding the same space.
Red Dead Redemption 2
Arthur still holds his place, and I enjoy John as much as Arthur in a different way. Red Dead Redemption 2 gives me mood, stillness, brutality, open space, and that rare feeling that a game understands how to let silence and presence do as much work as action.
Fallout 4
Fallout 4 still lets me live inside ruin, customization, survival, and control. It is one of those worlds where collapse becomes its own design language, and I keep coming back to the way it lets me shape that damage into something personal, powerful, and a little monstrous.
Social Media
Social media is part signal, part reach, part sustained presence. It is where I keep the books visible, the voice active, and the larger body of work moving in public instead of letting it sit quietly where only I can see it.
Friends
Friends matter because life cannot be reduced to output, strategy, and the next push forward. Real people break the pressure, ground the day, and remind me that not every meaningful thing has to become content or work to matter.
Signing
Signing books gives the work a different kind of weight. It is no longer just the manuscript, the upload, or the listing. It becomes a thing carried away in someone else’s hands, marked by mine, and made personal in a way the screen can never fully replace.
Yard Work
Yard work is the practical side of life refusing to disappear just because bigger ambitions are moving. There is something useful in stepping outside, putting hands on the physical world, and making order out of something that will keep growing whether you are ready for it or not.
Making Chili
Making chili belongs to the ordinary world—the one that still eats, still cooks, still keeps moving while everything else stretches toward books, pages, videos, and larger plans. It is simple, practical, and exactly the kind of grounded thing that belongs beside the darker work.
Not Saying
Some things are better held back until their timing is right. Not everything needs announcing. Not everything should be explained. Some pieces stay in the dark because that is where they still have the most power.
Late Drives
Late drives fit the same part of me that writes psychological horror. Empty roads, private thought, darkness beyond the glass, and that feeling that something could shift without warning—it belongs to the same atmosphere I keep building on the page.
Empty Rooms
Empty rooms hold tension without effort. They imply absence, residue, waiting, and the sense that something has already happened there or is about to. That kind of quiet implication has always belonged to my darkness.
Watching Windows
A lit window at the wrong time, the feeling of distance without privacy, the possibility of someone seeing more than they should—those things carry the same quiet tension I return to again and again. They are ordinary. They are familiar. They are one degree away from wrong.
DON’T ASK
Some things stay where they are because they should. Some questions do not open doors. They weaken them. Some subjects are better left in the dark, unnamed, untouched, and exactly where they were before attention found them.
Core Statement
What matters most to me is building work with structure, control, atmosphere, and staying power. I care about books that do more than fill a shelf, pages that do more than sit online, and a body of work that keeps expanding across fiction, presentation, visuals, and voice without losing the pressure that made it worth building in the first place.
I care about psychological horror that feels deliberate, not random. I care about the ordinary turning dangerous without warning. I care about the systems people trust, the spaces they relax inside, and the moment those spaces stop behaving the way they were supposed to.
Current Emphasis
Right now, I am especially focused on rounding out my YouTube channel so readers and new viewers can move deeper into the books through background pieces, summaries, teasers, trailers, excerpts, and rants built around each title. I want the channel to function as more than promotion. I want it to feel like another way into the work.
That effort sits beside a full emphasis on my First Responder and Second Chances prestige series bibles, which remain some of the clearest proof that this world is already written, already structured, and already prepared to move when the right eyes land on it.
Three Psychological Horror Tips From Me
Use ordinary places, trusted routines, and recognized roles. Horror lands harder when the structure already feels safe.
The reader’s mind will often create something worse than the page can state outright. Suggest. Delay. Let dread arrive under its own power.
The best moment is not when something bad happens. It is when the reader understands, one beat too late, that it was always going to.
Give James H. Summers a try because his horror is not noise pretending to matter — it is controlled, deliberate, human, and built to stay with you.
