The Cosmic Carnival of Curiosities
Published in 2023.
This is my latest book, that tells the story of a young lad named Cal, and his encounter with a mysterious man who takes him to a carnival in the stars.
I had the pleasure of hiring and working with a professional artist to create the vintage-style book cover.
Available in physical and ebook format.
An audiobook version is also available —narrated and produced by myself.
The Plot
Published in 2022.
A short story, that follows detective Adam Ware as he obsesses to find out the cause behind the death of a lighthouse keeper.
Heavily inspired by Twin Peaks and Alan Wake; embracing the surreality and mysterious nature of their stories.
The tale may not be long, but it is certainly riddled with tiny details that a few eagle-eyed readers picked up on.
I also produced an audiobook version a few months after publication.
Personally, I like to call it an “okay first attempt”.
