๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป I’m Elijah. I write Sci-fi & Fantasy.

I’m a writer of sci-fi & fantasy from the southeastern U.S.A. Ever since I was a kid with my nose buried into a copy of The Lord of the Rings or The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, I’ve been enraptured by the power that the speculative has to show us things about who we are. When I’m not working on writing a book or attending to my day job, you can often find me honing my baking skills, working through my massive to-read pile, or trying to turn my Sims’ neighborhood into the urbanist paradise they deserve.

My first published work, “The Memory of You is Contained in the Crab Rave”, is currently forthcoming at Crepuscular Magazine.

Currently, I’m working on revising my first novel, Nor Gloom of Night, an irreverent interplanetary romp about a mailman in the 23rd century whose cargo turns out to be more than meets the eye.
