The Work

Darkness is
often more
interesting.

My stories tend to begin where certainty ends: a lost manuscript, an impossible prophecy, a strange inheritance, a survivor trying to remember what happened.

I write fiction that crosses boundaries—literary, speculative, historical, horrific—because the best stories rarely stay where you put them.

Featured Book

Lost Story

A literary mystery built around one of the most famous lost manuscripts in American letters—and the strange lives touched by its disappearance.

About Sean

A writer
with a
library card.

I'm a Colorado-based author and librarian. I've been inventing stories since I was six, and I've spent a lifetime collecting the books, histories and oddities that make those stories possible.

My work moves between horror, fantasy, literary fiction, mystery and the uncanny—usually with an interest in what happens when the past refuses to stay buried.
