About

I write books featuring bioengineered pygmy elefantkin short-order cooks. Yep—that’s a thing I do. Also, I see moons.

And when not shifting unpredictably into third person, Richard lives with his wife, two lovely daughters, some cats, and three ducks, in a magical bookstore that is—quite frankly—the only thing that stands between you and raging hordes of zombies who haven’t read a good book in, like, forever.

He has been shortlisted for the International Rubery Book Award (for young adult), an Eric Hoffer Book Award Finalist (for young adult), and a recipient of the Independent Publisher Book Award Medal (for juvenile fiction), the National Indie Excellence Award (for juvenile fiction), and the Moonbeam Children’s Book Award Medal (for pre-teen fantasy).
