Welcome to my blog!

This space is dedicated to my work as an author, artist, and lover of all things Gothic. Do you share a fascination with dark literature? Are you interested in the intersection of Mary Shelley’s beloved Frankenstein and my novel Mademoiselle Frankenstein? Are you curious about how my other loves—the charged atmosphere and fatalism of film noir and the haunting beauty of black and white photography—mesh with a Gothic mindset? If so, welcome to the conversation!

Upcoming blog topics include:

• Animals in Gothic literature

• The Numerology of Mademoiselle Frankenstein

• Writing Modern vs Historical Female Characters

• Creating Author Collectable Cards

• Gothic Literature, Film Noir and My Art

• Are Book Series Dead?

• The Art of Gothic Retelling

• Guillermo del Toro’s upcoming Frankenstein movie and Mademoiselle Frankenstein—Back to the Classics

• The Gothic Heart of the American Revolution

I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments!
