Check out "Siren in the Machine!"

I posted a new short story for Thanksgiving. Without spoiling anything, “Siren in the Machine” came from Chinese folklore, my childhood background as a musician/pianist, and a Japanese anime pop culture icon.

Let’s all be thankful we aren’t Troy Night, the man who killed an industry.

“Troy pressed his forehead against the wooden bar, polished smooth from years of rubbing by greasy hands. He’d driven hours to this foul-smelling dive because it was the only place to get away from her. At least the whiskey made him stop caring about the foul, sticky spot under his left elbow. He tapped the empty glass next to his head as the bartender walked by.”

Enjoy “Siren in the Machine!”
