His work largely focuses on internal character transformations, loners and outcasts, flawed protagonists, and the raw yet sympathetic depiction of mental illness.

He is an active member of the Horror Writers Association. You can find him in Columbus, Ohio, with his wife Kristen and their five (yes, FIVE!) needy cats.
