Though I am a man of many passions, horror-writing was my very first. I began as a disgruntled reader until I came across the Alvin Schwartz series Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. I was inspired to write some of my own horror shorts. It’s been 30 years since those poorly scribbled novellas and poems that I taped to my Chicago bedroom walls. My writing has been heavily influenced by my working-class background, my experiences in the military and my spiritual journey spanning four religions. Through my writing, I hope to share with readers the unique perspectives not often found in mainstream novels. Yes, I have a tremendous amount of hope and love in my heart. But, that heart resides in a dark world where repressive governments and evil have no boundaries… a world shrouded in haunted mysteries and located at the intersection between the normal and the paranormal. This is the World of Reyn. And I welcome you in.
