I’m an award‑winning science teacher, education researcher, and published academic author with a doctorate in zoology, a third‑degree black belt in Zen‑Do‑Kai, and (most critical to this page!) a fantasy writer!
I wrote my first fantasy in fourth grade (it featured a promising blackout scene courtesy of goblins) and started several novel‑length projects as a teenager (one may have included scantily clad vampires ). Life had other plans, so my dream waited until two years ago.
Since then I’ve written over 500,000 words across four books set in a shared universe I call the Chained Continuities. I polish my craft every day: entering writing competitions, gathering alpha reader feedback, and working with professional editors so these books will be as polished as possible when they get to you!
My stories sit where fantasy and horror overlap. I’m drawn to resistance against oppression, alternative ecologies and biofantasy, and the hazy boundary between human and monster. If you like science-inspired fantasy, weak to powerful progression, nuanced characters, or action-oriented plots, welcome aboard the Chained Continuities.
Welcome! I’m Josh.
Journey to the
Chained Continuities…
Worlds of fantasy, mystery, and horror with characters that will linger with you long after the pages end….
What would happen if…
…the very bounds of natural growth and evolution were stripped away?
…a society was so dependent on dwindling magic for survival it wore away their humanity?
…learning and cognition were not just neurological processes, but the very fuel by which magic stems?
