The Collected Works · 2024 to 2026

Works.

These are my works. The word is deliberate. I call them works instead of books because some of them will be novels, yes, but some may become short fiction, essays bound together, screenplays if I ever manage it. A book is a container. A work does not care what container it ends up in.

Dear reader,
What I write about, since you asked, since you stayed.

Deadpan, witty, irreverent, satirical, gothic and if the page wants it, erotic without apology. Call it dark comedy if you need a shelf for it. The labels are fine.

The trade is this: I write about the small machines of cruelty people run on each other, mostly without noticing, sometimes with the slow pride of a craftsman finishing a desk. Marriages with structural rot. Divorces with quarterly forecasts. Love when it is performing a chore. Sex with anatomical patience, never with the lights off. The dead and the people who fold their hands over them.

The laughter is always there. It is the lever the dark uses to lift you closer. Keep staying.

An Anatomy of Longing

Part III.On Believing

Pars III.

On Believing

Religion as comfort rather than truth, and the cost of building lives on stories we already half-know to be untrue. The blueprints for self-rupture, drawn small.
