I was born in Raleigh, North Carolina, raised in Cheverly (on the outskirts of Washington D.C.), tormented in Severna Park (on the outskirts of Annapolis) and then found a home on the inskirts of Brooklyn, NY. I make a living at storytelling in any medium anybody will hire me in.

Outside of books, I also write and direct scary movies (Soft for Digging, Mimic Sentinel) and write videogames (Splinter Cell, Pandora Tomorrow, Batman: Begins). If anybody claims I once fronted a country-western band, it’s a groundless rumor.
