Hello everyone, I stumbled across this site by accident, and it seemed intriguing. Currently, I’m lurking on the site due to working on several ongoing projects but hope to get more involved in the coming year as time allows.
As for who I am… I’m a retired Corrections Officer, meaning I had to go right back to work to pay the bills, just not working in corrections. I caught the writing bug around a decade ago and just recently released my tenth book. Naturally, two of my novels are crime fiction in a prison setting. The rest of my works are short horror story collections. I also recently ghostwrote a novel.
I’ve had one of my novels and a few of my short stories turned into scripts. The problem is I don’t know what to do with them from this point forward. That’s why I was interested in Stage 32.
I also write creepypastas for several YouTube narrators. To date, my stories have been viewed over 2 million times.
Looking forward to meeting and talking with more people here as time allows and I feel more comfortable on the site.
