This site’s purpose is to list everything I’ve created in one place for easy access and sharing. I have no interest in a publishing contract and I’m not trying to be an at-scale commercial bookseller or advertiser, either: my focus is on making things and keeping them available. I try to reduce my reliance on companies like Amazon as much as possible, but I understand the importance of meeting readers where they’re at, so I’ll use Amazon as necessary to host major releases while putting my more niche work (multiple versions of older books, books that I wanted to take formally out of print without erasing them entirely, books in unconventional formats, etc) on Lulu.
I write for small and very specific audiences–sometimes just one or two people–and I greatly enjoy talking about my writing one-on-one with anyone who’s interested. I’ve done my best to carry that conversational approach into this site with plain language and as much extra info as I can share without crossing into spoiler territory.
Once I’ve given a book or other creative project to the one(s) I made it for, I release it into the wild and see if anyone else likes it. Sometimes, I’m surprised who picks it up. I created the Hushed Forest Entertainment imprint to serve as a banner under which everything I make, in any format, can exist together. I’m also open to the idea of publishing someone else’s work under the HFE imprint someday.
