Eli is a curious young boy who starts noticing strange behavior from his father, Paul, the local sheriff, who has developed a disturbing nightly habit of watching an old VHS tape. Eli becomes increasingly fixated on understanding what’s on the tape and why his father watches it in secret.

I grew up in New Orleans, experiencing what feels like a different, more magical world then other cities. That sense of enchantment and also adversity from dealing with Hurricane Katrina help to guide my writing into fantastical and sometimes dark territory. Go to bio
