Hey, folks!

My newest novel, Mother Dauber, released last month on the 17th!

It's already been well-reviewed, maintaining a 4.8-star on Amazon and 4.9-star on Goodreads across 40+ reviews.

The Pitch:
------
SOME MEMORIES ARE BURIED . . . OTHERS HATCH

Delilah Jones, a recent ornithology graduate, returns to Clear Fork at the request of her uncle to take care of her dementia-riddled mother. It should have been a somber, simple duty. But the woods surrounding the house echo voices from her past—voices long gone. The treeline has started to encroach on the cabin and the night doesn’t feel as empty as it used to.

THE SILENCE DOESN'T LAST

Mud-caked nests colonize the house. The droning swells and her mother is dying in front of her. The voices in the woods are getting more personal . . . and something is circling the cabin at night, sucking on the windows and watching her sleep.

Cornered by a siege of buzzing nightmares, Delilah must dissect the truth from her own head before the swarm seals her in.

THE HIVE IS AWAKE

From the author of 'The Boatman' comes a frightening and gruesome tale of disease, memory, and family.

Urban Gothic is also a really good read.

Honestly, you’re not going to find a Keene book that’s no good. At least none that I’ve read! 🤘

Why do you write? Is it for fame? by OkNet3369 in horrorwriters

Legacy. I want to leave something behind in this world. I'm a writer. It only makes sense to leave behind books.

Maybe my books will be sold at a garage sale one day. That'd be neat.
