...and this is the about author page on my horror review website, Red Rose Horror (RRH). While I'm passionate about horror it isn't the only thing I care about or write about. In addition to RRH I write poetry, short stories, pop-culture articles, non-fiction essays, and as of recently novels.
My 1st book, Impaired Judgments: A Collection of Poems, is available to download or view as a PDF now. Currently I'm editing a horror fantasy novel, The Fixation, and have more info about both books below.

My 1st book, Impaired Judgments: A Collection of Poems, is available now! All of the included poems were originally written by me between 2010-2025, largely during difficult times to help process emotions. Despite the association with my life nothing is offered as fact or evidence and is rather a rough wireframe of a story made up of my poems put together. Due to this the poems only reflect a singular (often negative & mentally ill) perspective and not the whole truth of any matter.
Often I'd ruminate about the past, devolving into negative spirals spent interpreting myself, others, & circumstances through the warped lenses. These were my impaired judgments about my life, my struggles, and my early recovery from those struggles. Poetry has become a way to get the thoughts or patterns I'd ruminate about out of my head. This also turned them into something productive rather than destructive and over time I've accumulated enough to transform into this book, Impaired Judgments.
I hope that these poems find those who relate to (or connect with) them and at the very least they provide entertainment while reading. Despite the subject matter I do not believe that my circumstances are the worst or even relatively bad when compared to others but rather that they just simply are.
A disgruntled, trapped employee tries to escape an eccentric and domineering boss with extreme measures before she is stuck permanently or harmed seriously.
When her plan backfires and causes even more interest in her torment she must find another way to escape before her boss or any of his other, even more indebted employees, discover her plans.
The first draft is complete and is currently being edited and constantly evolving (thus the vague description). If you're interested in getting updates when they become available use the form at the bottom of this page!
I spend way too much time, money, and energy on horror and Red Rose Horror is the culmination of that pass time. I started reviewing horror in 2021 and since then I've come to believe that everything is horror and that horror is in everything. In part meaning anything can be a horror movie with minor tweaks and additionally that all horror movies contain or pertain to deeper themes and plots that delve into the spectrums of human emotion better than most genres.
My opinion is obviously bias towards horror but nonetheless much of what I post for Red Rose Horror is in pursuit of arguing and supporting those beliefs, which isn't everyone's cup of tea. I strive (and sometimes fail) to incorporate historical & pop culture context, background info, and the audience's reception when reviewing & critiquing horror media.
Theoretically we can learn about broader society, culture, and ourselves by examining the media that we produce and how we all respond to what is produced. I think that horror despite being a bedrock genre doesn't receive the same reverence or respect as other genres like it. RRH and related content seeks to contribute to those broader conversations while also serving as a personal creative outlet.
The horror media I have and plan to review includes but isn't limited to movies, shows, platforms, and books with the overarching view that everything really is that deep.
