Beyond The Reckoning
Thirty-three years after the world fell to chaos, and eighteen years after the tragic deaths of her parents, Emily has carved out a fragile existence in the ruins of civilization. Hardened by years of survival, she clings to the memory of those she’s lost and the hope of rebuilding something worth living for. Haven’s Reach, her current refuge, seems like a rare oasis amidst the desolation—a place to breathe, to rebuild, to find purpose. But peace is fleeting in a world like this. When the infected begin to move in terrifyingly organized hordes, Emily’s sanctuary is torn apart, and the nightmare she thought she’d escaped resurfaces with a vengeance. Captured by the Anarchists, a sinister faction bent on destruction, Emily finds herself thrust into a new kind of war. With the ghosts of her past driving her, she must uncover the truth behind the Anarchists’ connection to the infected and their devastating attack on Haven’s Reach. This is a story of loss, resilience, and a woman’s relentless pursuit of revenge in a world where humanity is on the brink of extinction. In the face of overwhelming odds, Emily must decide whether to embrace the darkness within or find a way to preserve the last remnants of her humanity. A gripping post-apocalyptic thriller about survival, loss, and the fire that fuels revenge.

BUTCHER’S CREEK II
The nightmare was never over.
One and a half years after barely escaping the horrors of Butcher’s Creek, Zoe Parker is pulled back to the town of Trent, by a mysterious message. The place her friends were murdered the year before. But something is different. The killings have started again, the shadows feel alive, but the McKinney brothers—once the monsters she feared—may not be the true enemy, not entirely. As more people begin to go missing, Zoe works to uncover the terrifying truth: the McKinneys weren't the enemy — they were the hosts of the true enemy: The curse — and they were fighting against it. And now, if she doesn’t find a way to stop it for good, the darkness will spread, more powerful than ever.
Some things should stay buried. Some curses should't be messed with.
But in Butcher’s Creek, the past never stays dead…

Frequently Asked Questions
What inspired you to start writing?
What initially inspired me to start writing was my passion for crafting characters and weaving my own narratives. I've always had a desire to tailor stories to my own liking. I have never really been much into books, I was more of a movie type of guy. Often, when watching movies, I find myself imagining how I would alter certain aspects. Writing allows me the freedom to do exactly that—shape my own stories according to my vision and create worlds where anything is possible. It's this creative freedom that continues to drive my love for storytelling.
How do you come up with the ideas for your stories?
Sometimes a plot will start forming in my mind gradually, or literally out of nowhere, a great idea will pop up in my head. When this happens, I begin by jotting down characters, settings, and plot points in a notebook. I let my imagination run wild, refining and expanding the concept until it feels just right. From there, I keep developing the story, allowing my creativity to guide me through each twist and turn.
Which of your books is your favorite, and why?
Choosing my favorite book is always challenging because they are all very near and dear to my heart, but if I had to pick one, it would be The Reckoning. This book holds a special place in my heart because it was the first story I ever wrote. I remember starting it just for fun, without any plans to publish it—it all sprang from my imagination. After writing non-stop, I eventually read what I had written and thought it looked really good. I made some changes and improvements, and that's how The Reckoning came to be. That's why this book is the closest one to my heart.
