Happy holidays!

Do you love speculative fiction, but you’re tired of all the dark and depressing stories out there? I love dark stories as much as, or if not more, than anyone, and I feel there’s a place for them in literature. However, sometimes a ray of sunshine hits me, and I write a story with a happy ending.

So, please support my creative ventures and buy the anthology “Sunshine Superhighway,” put together by the very cool editor, Jessica Augustsson of JayHenge Publishing. My short story, “Deep Dreams,” appears in the collection, and I wrote it with the feedback and suggestions of my writer friends in Tulsa—the lovely people in the writing groups of Nevermore Edits and Tuesday Night Publishing.

I’ve finished reading the entire book, and I feel very lucky to be included among the authors. This is a proud achievement for me, so please support it! Click on the beautiful cover below to head over to Amazon.com, pick up your own copy, and leave a review telling us how much you loved it!

Let’s turn it around in 2021 and let some sunshine into our lives!

Happy Halloween, friends! Listen to my new narrated fiction and get ready for book reviews!

 Hello friends! I hope that you are all happy and healthy and doing well. Yes, Joe is still alive and around!

My brother and I love cruising down the downtown parking garages on quiet Sundays. Happy Halloween! Have you put out your jack-o-lanterns? If you need something to do on Halloween night, listen to this kick ass narrated fiction written by yours truly, " The Testing of Affa Eash ," and produced by the incredibly talented Matthew Mohn.

So much has happened - behold: Tales of the Fantastic Podcast!!!!!!!

Hello friends! A long, long time ago, during the mid 1980s, two home-schooled boys sat around geeking out about science fiction, fantasy, and horror. They loved short stories and narrated stories, so they checked out sound-effects records from the library and produced their own narrated fiction using a tape recorder. The boys grew old and traveled the world, one got married and had kids. In their forties, during the initial shutdown due to the coronavirus, their passion was rekindled. They decided to return to narrating fiction. Yes, Matt and Joe are at it once again. We're starting a podcast! TALES OF THE FANTASTIC PODCAST is for those of you who love to write genre fiction as much as we do. Each episode will start with a discussion of our favorite influences. After that, we'll have a short talk about writing practices. At the end of each episode, we will feature a five to ten minute narrated story! Matt and I write the stories and we make the sound effects, and we...

Swords and Sorcery Magazine is super fun, and this month's issue includes one of my short stories!

Hello friends! Did you know that the term "swords and sorcery" was coined by one of my favorite writers, Fritz Leiber? He used it in a letter responding to another author by the name of Michael Moorcock. Of course, Leiber is famous for his Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser stories and books, and Moorcock is famous for his Elric of Melnibone series. Around the age of thirteen, I was introduced to the genre by my best buddy, Matt Mohn. I had read and heard of Tolkien and Lewis, but I wasn't yet indoctrinated into the world of swords and sorcery. From that point on, I spent long nights under my blankets with a flashlight while reading Robert E. Howard , L. Sprague de Camp , Clark Ashton Smith , and other greats. So this month, I am proud to have a short story included in a fine online publication,  Swords and Sorcery Magazine . The story is titled " Bringing Down the Mountain ," and it is about a young Viking lad who saves his family and home from a rampaging ice ...
