Pre- Sale Available

I currently have two projects available for Pre-Order. First, the charity anthology Dread Coast, which hopes to raise funds to support the vital recovery work from the Palisades and Eaton fires. Dread Coast will be a collection of dark stories from Southern California authors, including New York Times Best Selling authors Jonathan Maberry, Peter Clines and Scott Sigler, USA Today bestselling author Luke Dumas, me and many others, edited by Dennis Crosby and Kristina Grifant, available 8/22/2025 from Temecula Publisher No Bad Books Press, and publisher Theresa Halvorsen Author.

Second, will be my collaboration with prolific writer, publisher, and podcaster Mark Tullius - Try Not To Die in Roswell and Beyond. Mark is the creator of the TNTD book series, which is a choose-your-own-adventure style series for Adults/Young Adults. It will be available 10/14/2025 from Vincere Press. I am thrilled to be a part of both of these amazing projects.

Dread Coast - SoCal Horror Tales: A Charity Anthology

Try Not To Die is Roswell and Beyond

CLIVE BARKER - Anthology

I don't have a lot of information on this, but today I got accepted into an anthology that is a tribute to the master of Horror, Clive Barker! There are some authors involved with the project, I know, but most are new to me. Can't wait to read their stuff. And it's not locked in, but the publishers are working with the Clive Barker estate to include one of his stories. That would be amazing. More on this next time.

TNTD in Rowell and Beyond Cover Reveal

I'm very excited about the new book I have coming out this summer, with author, podcaster, publisher, editor, mixed martial artist, and guy who could totally kick my butt, MarkTullius! And to answer your question, yes, those are flying cows.

Try Not To Die in Roswell and Beyond will be book 19 or 20 in the TNTD book series created by Mark. The series is growing fast with an amazing collection of authors: Evan Baughfman, John Palisano, Jon Cohn, Anthony Szpak, Dawna Gonzales, Duncan Ralston, and so many more. But Kevin, what is the Try Not To Die Book Series? I'm so glad you asked.

The Try Not to Die series is an adrenaline-fueled collection of interactive thrillers where survival is never guaranteed. Each book plunges you into a heart-pounding story filled with danger, tough decisions, and multiple gruesome ways to die. Will you outthink the horrors ahead—or become the next victim?

NEW ANTHOLOGY
DREAD COAST

I’m very proud to be included in this charity anthology from Southern California writers to support those impacted by the L.A. fires. I’ve been honored to share pages with some of these amazing authors in the past, but this is the first time I’ve been in an anthology with one of the writers who inspired me to write, Scott Sigler. Dread Coast hits bookshelves in August 2025, from No Bad Books Press, edited by Dennis Crosby and KC Grifant.

MISCELLANEOUS NEWS

At the end of last year, my one-act 10-minute play, Midnight Call, was performed in Colorado by the One Night Stand Theater group. It was the first script for the stage I’d written, based on one of my short stories, and I’d have loved to have seen the performance, but couldn't justify the 14-hour car ride for a 10-minute play. Maybe next time.

Early this year, I sold a poem called Nightmare, to Graveyard Press. I don’t write a lot of poems. Well, that’s not true. I don’t sell a lot of poems, with good reason. I’m not a poet. Graveyard Press will put it out later this year.
