Horror Podcasts on Youtube! The Morgue is Moving Along! A Self-Help Inspirational Book?

  Horror Podcasts on Youtube!

If you follow me on any of my socials, you probably already know that Olivia Blair—my badass friend, and co-founder at Fanward—and I host a weekly podcast where we try to give the voice back to you, the audience.

Because let’s be real... in a world where every massive studio and AAA game company plays the victim while squeezing the life out of the very people keeping them alive, someone’s gotta shift the spotlight back where it belongs: on the fans, the creators, and the stories that actually matter to us.

This week—and next week, for part two—we’re diving into a topic that’s near and dear to my cold, cursed little heart. That’s right. We’re talkin’ horror, baby.

So head on over to the official Fanward YouTube channel to check out this week's episode, catch next week’s continuation, and keep an eye out for an upcoming special one... which might just happen to be about a certain 630-page horror epic I wrote. No big deal. Just a little nightmare of a novel, is all.


The Morgue is Moving Along!

Believe it or not, it's looking like The Morgue is going to be ready and published, and available to the public right in time for Halloween of this year!

Yeah, no joke! Fans of Wicker Hill won't have to wait long to find out what happens in the universe of the Wicker Anthology, as they will have the second book of the four book series in their hands and readable before the end of the year!

I've been re-reading what I have completed so far, and holy shit it is good (toot-toot). It is SO good. I'm enjoying it so much that I'm losing track of time every time I sit down to read it.

With even more emotionally resonant moments, more terror on a more intimate level and more eroticism on an even more intimate level, The Morgue is shaping up to be the intense, horror-heavy gutpunch of the entire series.

If Wicker Hill is the step into the water, then the Morgue is the hand that pulls you under.

You will have to wait a book or two more before you can actually come up for breath. But stay tuned! This is getting crazy, and I can't wait!


A Self-Help Inspirational Book?

Firstly… why?

Honestly, fair question.

But for someone like me—someone who’s lived through a rough stretch of life… depression, suicidal thoughts, divorce, loss, regret, bullying, betrayal, abuse, losing myself completely—and somehow managed to crawl out the other side, this felt like the exact book that needed to be written.

Yeah, it’s a bit outside my usual lane. But maybe that’s the point. The fact that it’s so different, and I still feel pulled to write it—that tells me I’m supposed to.

So I am.

The Sisyphus Complex is my attempt to tie the grind of real life to the ancient myth of Sisyphus—the guy cursed to push a boulder up a hill forever, only to watch it roll back down every time. But here’s the thing: he still pushes. Day after day. Whether it’s out of defiance, stubborn hope, or sheer willpower… he keeps going.

And don’t we all?

We fall, we break, we burn out—and yet we keep getting back up. Even knowing we’ll fall again. So how do we live with that struggle, instead of treating it like some enemy to conquer? How do we stop seeing it as punishment and start seeing it as proof that we’re alive?

Not “it is what it is.”

But: “I’ll do it. Because I can. Because I must.”

That’s what this book is about. Taking everything that feels pointless, painful, exhausting—and turning it into fuel.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re stuck at the bottom of the hill—I hope The Sisyphus Complex helps you find your footing again. Helps you stand up, take a breath… and start pushing.

June is Men's Mental Health Awareness Month

Image
  As a man who has lost a number of heroes due to mental health issues, emotional trauma, and unresolved pains, this month is particularly important to me, and even more so a topic of extreme passion. I myself have struggled with issues that made me question the strength of a support beam and a rope. I have faced periods of incredible emotional struggle, regret, paranoia. I have lost family to the power of those who have power over men. I have faced courtrooms that saw me only as the male, the oppressor, the aggressor, and never as a part of a bigger puzzle.  I have been silenced. Abused. Stabbed, Robbed. Ostracized. And I am not alone. Each year, June marks Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month —a time to shine a light on a crisis we rarely speak about with the gravity it deserves. While society has made meaningful strides in mental health awareness overall, there remains a critical gap when it comes to men. It’s a conversation too often whispered—if it's had at all. But the nu...

Wicker Hill is FINALLY Available! So... What's Next?

Image
  Wicker Hill is FINALLY Available! If you’ve been following me for any time at all, you already know that I finished Wicker Hill months ago—two and a half, maybe three months ago to be exact… Well… I can now officially say that it is 100% completed and NOW AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE ! Both digitally and physically via my official website www.FCMarrow.com , and through Amazon and Barnes & Noble! Earlier today, I received my final print proof copy, and people have already started buying their own physical copies through Amazon—and now you can too! I don’t have to tell you how ridiculously proud I am of the final product. Knowing that I did all of the writing, all of the formatting, the front, spine, and back cover designs, all of the editing, all of the publishing—everything—all by myself only makes me even more proud to finally say: it is done. The editing isn’t perfect, and there is a lot of room for improvement to pick up on things that tunnel vision missed, but I already ha...

Wicker Hill Update Coming Soon, The Cursed Ones Gets its Final Title

Image
  Wicker Hill Update Coming Soon After what has genuinely felt like a small eternity, I’ve finally heard back from my publisher—and it looks like updates on Wicker Hill ’s physical release should be coming within the next few weeks! The process has taken much longer than I anticipated. Months, actually. Far beyond the timeline I originally planned for, and definitely long enough to throw a wrench into everything I had lined up after it. The delay ended up halting a lot of my forward movement on The Morgue (the second book in the series, already 50% done by the way ), which has been frustrating—but not unexpected, given how publishing tends to go. Still, it’s been a test of patience. The good news is that, despite the detours and drawn-out waiting game, things are finally shifting into motion. If all goes well—and God willing and the creek don’t rise— Wicker Hill will soon be more than just a file on my hard drive or a name in my head. It’ll be a real book. One with pages, a spin...
