Hi, I’m Dan.

A writer based in Vermont with a five-year-old and a demanding day job as a Director of Digital Marketing and Copywriting for a large tech company. To not go totally insane, or become a “dull boy”, I bring universal mysteries to science-fiction/horror novels grounded in a reality we recognize. By combining accounts of unexplainable experiences with philosophical explorations of what is behind it all, I craft the kinds of mysteries that leave you both contemplative and paranoid. If you’re not curious, you will be. If you’re not disturbed, you should be. If you’re not mesmerized by the macrocosm…wake up!

My stories come from my study of Philosophy and my forty-year-old subscription to Time-Life’s Mysteries of the Unknown. I ponder them on family road trips and dog walks. They haunt me in corporate meetings and nightmares. They beg to be let loose upon the populace.
