The Home of Sean M Davis' Shadowed Imagination
I wrote "Running with Zombies" completely from the hip. In other words, I didn't do any notebook work for it, which is weird for me.

Nicholas Grabowsky and Black Bed Sheet Books will be publishing Clean Freak Spring/Summer 2013! Go forth and rejoice; I sure as hell am!
Since we’re all going to die in less than twelve months, I thought now was the perfect time to take a moment to reflect on everything I did in 2011. Beginning a writing career can be frustrating, so here were the good things that happened in between rejection letters. I found out about Fangoria’s Weird … Continue reading 2011: A Year in Review
I continue to make a name for myself at Dark Moon Books. I'll be writing a monthly column for their monthly e-magazine, Dark Eclipse.
