From my shelf to yours

Books

Novels, horror collections, pulp serials, and the rude nonfiction book currently auditing the entire self-help aisle. Each title stays in production until the manuscript, cover, digital files, and print proof can survive being sold.

Studio Direct

Digital editions

DRM-free EPUB and PDF editions sold from this site. Direct editions can include production notes, art, appendices, and other material that does not fit the retail edition.

Studio print

Paperback and hardcover orders placed here will be printed and shipped by Lulu under the studio storefront. No private stockroom or mystery box of unsold books required.

Retail shelves

Amazon remains available for Kindle and print buyers who prefer it. The direct edition remains the fullest package and the clearest way to support the work.

Direct checkout opens title by title after the final files and physical proof pass. No preorder is being taken against an unfinished manuscript.

Westopolis

A city built around superheroes, civic panic, family control, public spectacle, and the cost of inheriting somebody else's symbol. The expanded manuscript is complete.

Fuck It, Just Succeed

A hostile audit of the self-help canon that keeps the tools that work, prices their limits, and replaces motivational theater with an operating system that can survive real life.

Remaining gates: complete the source audit, citations, permissions review, legal read, final proof, and cover.

Planned: $8.99 Kindle, $11.99 direct, print from $19.99
68,770-word second draft

Afterlife.exe

A cyberpunk heist inside a corporate-owned digital afterlife, where identity, memory, emotion, and death have all become editable systems.

2 of 12 stories complete

The Horror Collection

Twelve stories about impossible routines, bad institutions, contaminated homes, broken bodies, trains, doors, and the price people keep paying after the danger leaves.

Hell Train is complete and free. The Crimson Descent is complete pending one ending decision. The remaining ten slots are drafted, outlined, or still empty.

Planned collection: $4.99 Kindle, $6.99 direct, print from $14.99
Pulp serial, issue one in progress

London the Axe

An eidetic killer wakes in a prison tube, escapes into deep space, and takes the psychiatrist assigned to understand her as a hostage.

Issue one is 3,576 words and still needs the Warden confrontation and back half. Three issues will be banked before the first public release.

Planned: direct issues, then collected digital and print volumes
70,404 words through chapter 24

Chronicles of Anterra

A wounded fellowship, six impossible stones, two kingdoms trying to own a savior, and the ordinary animal that changes the story after prophecy has already claimed it.

The manuscript is written through the entombment and escape. Book One's remaining Act III fallout is still open.

Pricing waits for a complete Book One manuscript

The Format Rule

Short stories and pulp issues can release here first. Amazon receives finished collections and volumes rather than a shelf full of tiny, disconnected listings. Rulebooks and table-facing books live at Mighty Meat Shield.
