I’m actively seeking opportunities to appear on podcasts, panels, book events, and discussion forums. My work, particularly Genesis of a Vampire and the upcoming Shadow of the Legions naturally sparks conversation. The blend of historical authenticity, moral conflict, and supernatural transformation invites readers and listeners to explore big questions about faith, power, identity, and what it truly means to be a monster.

​

With over 25 years of teaching history, plus extensive experience speaking to groups of all sizes, I’m comfortable, articulate, and energetic in front of an audience. I enjoy the back‑and‑forth of a good discussion, especially when it digs into the darker corners of storytelling or challenges long‑held assumptions about the ancient world.

​

Some topics I’m often asked to explore include:

• Reimagining vampire mythology through real history

• How Roman discipline, trauma, and empire shape character psychology

• Portraying a young Jesus (Josh) in a grounded, human way

• The moral tension between violence, compassion, and survival

• Building a 2,000‑year saga through the eyes of an immortal

• Why dark fiction resonates so strongly with modern readers

• ​

Whether it’s a deep‑dive interview, a craft‑focused conversation, or a lively audience Q&A, I bring enthusiasm, clarity, and a willingness to tackle the provocative themes my books raise.

If you’re looking for a guest who can speak with authority, spark debate, and keep listeners engaged, I’d be delighted to join you.
