Hi new followers!
I am a culture writer and memoirist based in Kingston, Ontario. I write about music, film, tv, technology, games, mental illness, and the occult. My essay collections contain my entire essence: BE SCARED OF EVERYTHING, and HOW TO RESTORE A TIMELINE.
I hope we can be friends.

you know horror is back because people are judging new and exciting movies *solely* on whether they personally find them scary
a collection of Canadians writing about creeps, freaks, losers, wannabes, and disoriented tourists arrives in October 2026.
you will find my story "THRONE" inside, alongside work from folks like Naben Ruthnum, Zsuzsi Gartner, and Pasha Malla.
