The Kindle and paperback editions of Cal’s debut release Hawks Pass are now available via Amazon. Cal also plans to release his follow-up effort The Bad Things in early 2026. While Hawks Pass veers toward the sci-fi and dystopian elements of speculative fiction, The Bad Things is firmly rooted in the supernatural.
In The Bad Things, the narrator thinks he’s scored when a local drug runner hires him on as a distributor, though a series of sinister interactions leads him to question his new gig, antagonistic phone calls, disturbing clients with unsettling quirks, inexplicable breaks with reality. It is not long before members of his crew begin losing their cool, prophesying strange truths and vanishing from the scene. After discovering the “Bad Things” mean to come for them all, it is up to the narrator, a seedy pawnshop proprietor and a loner with ties to the supernatural to not only escape their tormentors, but send them back from whence they came.
A monthly newsletter will also be forthcoming at some point in the future, along with steady improvements to this humble site.
