I am the award-winning and bestselling author of the novels UNTHINKABLE, NOTHING BUT LIFE, BOY, and SAINTS, UNEXPECTED, as well as the story collection CUT ROAD. My stories appear in literary journals on both sides of the Atlantic, and have won the Bristol Short Story Prize, The Fiddlehead Best Fiction Award, the Lush Triumphant Literary Award, and numerous other accolades. A recovering army medic, tree planter, radio announcer, and high school English teacher, I now spend my time podcasting, writing, teaching, and figuring out what it means to be a family man.
