The Oath Keeper
It wasn’t right, and Eric didn’t want to laugh at the crass joke that his compatriot Malcolm had just told, but the man did have a point. The race for number one salesman would cause some serious competition, after the incentives the drug company offered for each customer. Technically, they should be called patients, but honesty was something Eric prided himself on and calling these people what they really were would be proper. Herbert Josslin laughed until he spit out the half masticated Hors d’oeuvres he was munching on.

The Zodiac Killer: America’s Most Theatrical Monster - How One Man Terrorized California, Taunted the World, and Vanished Into Legend
Have you ever been on a quiet date, parked somewhere secluded, and felt that sudden uneasy prickle on the back of your neck? Like someone, somewhere in the shadows, is watching you? For most of us, it’s just paranoia. But for a handful of young people in Northern California at the end of the 1960s, that feeling was brutally, fatally real.

Monkey Paws
I didn’t want to go to Cambodia. Humidity is my enemy, and the jungle has big bugs, snakes, and mean macaques. If it were a mild climate, I’d enjoy the wildlife, but I hate slogging through tall grass with a soaked, smelly back. I can’t call it perspiration; it’s just funk, thick and sour.

The House of a Thousand Eyes
The realtor warned me not to go alone. “Old Victorian on Maple Ridge. Beautiful bones, but… the previous owner left in a hurry.” She laughed nervously, the kind of laugh people use when they’re hiding something ugly. “Just don’t stay after dark if you can help it.”

Forest Service Road 22
“Hello?” I picked up on the second ring. “Hi, Jerse! No, I’m alone. Whazzup?” Jersey, Jerse as she was known, wanted me to join her to plan our girls’ foursome weekend. It was her turn after I had done last month’s. I invited her over, put out some snack munchies, and cracked open a crisp Albariño.

The Sky Has Started Remembering People
The concept I’ve created is not about aliens, angels, or supernatural creatures descending from the heavens. It is instead an atmospheric phenomenon tied to memory, grief, and humanity’s growing inability to emotionally process loss in a world constantly overwhelmed by tragedy, distraction, and catastrophe.

Mercy Cut. Content Warning.
The deed arrived in a thick yellow envelope that smelled faintly of mildew and old paper. At first, I thought it was another scam—another company trying to sell me a sliver of land I’d never seen. But the signature at the bottom belonged to my great-uncle Mac, dead three months now, and the property attached to his will sat deep in the mountains of Placer County where gold was first discovered in California.
