The Newfie Bullet

(October 10, 2026) "The Newfie Bullet" has been accepted for publication in Inkd Press's Constellations of Becoming anthology. Aboard the Newfie Bullet, a high speed train racing across an alternate future Newfoundland republic, a working class cargo handler and a handsome, straight laced security officer find themselves caught in a deadly conspiracy threatening the republic. With dangerous cargo, foreign agents, and the clock ticking, the unlikely pair must work together to save countless lives and discover that sparks can fly even when the world is about to explode. Learn more here.







Limited Edition

(July 30, 2026) “Limited Edition,” my queer Newfoundland body-horror story, will appear in Red Raven Press’s forthcoming Mixed Bag Anthology (Volume Three). Medical student and nightclub dancer Shea accepts $1,000 to perform at an isolated Christmas party in Flatrock, only to discover that his wealthy hosts collect far more than entertainment from the young men they invite. Drawing on mummering folklore, the story blends class anger, dark humour, and supernatural revenge as Shea fights to avoid becoming the party’s latest work of art. Beneath the horror, it asks what happens when money allows powerful people to treat another person’s body, identity, and survival as commodities. Learn more about Red Raven Press.
