On The Dark World, Professor Edmunds discovers that, for everyone on Earth, there is another you — an "Other" you.

For Edmunds, a bitter, brilliant man whose wife died in a tragic car crash ten years ago, the discovery of The Dark World is not only proof of humanity's eternal existence - it is a chance to see his wife again.

When Edmunds and his expeditionary crew touch down on The Dark World, they discover that the aliens on The Dark World do not only look like us… They are us.

Edmunds meets his own Other, the Other of his dead wife, and his son's Other - Kal - a boy hellbent on saving himself, his mother, and leading his people out of The Dark and into the promised land of The Light across The Water.

Their ship destroyed, Edmunds and company are forced to fight for their lives against the undead Islanders and the nameless, nefarious secrets of The Island.

What if, instead of expanding, our universe is collapsing, contracting upon itself like a giant, ravenous black hole?

Do you ever wonder what your life would look like if you had taken that job?

What about if you had married your high school sweetheart? What about if you had never met your best friend?

If, Then follows three friends and the alternate realities consequent of their choices (and their lack thereof).

In this world, choices – not time, not gravity – compose the fabric of the universe.

But, as the heroes of our story soon discover, every choice over the course of human history has left a complex butterfly effect far greater than even they – the visionaries who see through the veil and “crack the code” of existence – could ever imagine.

On his way home one day, Christian Camber, a newly minted professor at Georgetown University, sees something strange on the subway – himself.

Beginning to question his sanity, Christian wonders if he is seeing things or if there is actually another him wandering around – an alternate him from an alternate reality – a him who had made the choice he could never make but the choice he always knew he should have made.

This choice, as Christian soon learns, affects not only the course of his destiny, but the fate of his friends, family, and, possibly, all humanity.

In Too Deep is far from your typical love story. In this heart-pounding coming-of-age thriller inspired by my time as a student at a small liberal arts college in the South, the mundane world of a quaint college campus is transformed into a ruinous realm of torture and tantalizing, dangerous desire.

Here at Clearwater College, friends become enemies and lovers strangers.

No one is safe. Nothing is as it seems.

Kyle Bennett goes off to college, doing what so many young men his age do. Little does Kyle know that the place he will call his home for the next four years is a snare shrouded in innocence, a purgatory of peril, a creeping lair of sorrows, secrets, and shadows hell bent on swallowing him whole.

In this heaven soon to become Kyle’s own personal hell, the phantoms of the past and the specters of the future come to life. For Kyle, his fate comes in the form of a gorgeous female face.

Kyle discovers lies, love, and lust. He makes friends, attracts and antagonizes enemies, gets into dramatic drunken brawls at fraternity parties, broods by the lake, and breaks up fights between roommates over territorial girlfriend disputes – all typical college-kid things.

But there is nothing normal about Kyle’s time at Clearwater.

During his final year of college, Kyle lives with a terrible, twisted secret only he and Sussie share. If revealed, the secret will doom them both.

But all paradises must come to an end, even Kyle’s star-crossed romance with Sussie Bishop.

When Sussie leaves Kyle, leaving him lost and alone, Kyle must bear the burden of the secret alone.

But Kyle soon discovers he is not alone.

Betrayed BSC: Making Sense of Birmingham-Southern College’s Closure, a work of history, commentary, and investigative journalism, provides a comprehensive account of Birmingham-Southern College’s 168-year history and a close-up critical examination into the wide-ranging mechanics of The College’s regrettable closure.

Half of the proceeds from this project will go towards furthering activities which promote The College’s legacy.

Placing BSC’s closing in the national context of the rapidly vanishing liberal arts education, this work outlines a historical mapping and analytical overview of the various events, factors, forces, and decisions involved in the death of Birmingham-Southern College.

Birmingham-Southern College’s unfortunate fate is not a unique one. Many small, private liberal arts colleges struggle across the nation, forced to permanently close their doors due to financial constraints and lack of public sympathy and support for the classical educational model they offer.

The reverberations of Birmingham-Southern College’s death will be felt in the Birmingham community locally, in the South generally, and in our nation as a whole as we continue chopping away at liberal arts values.

Informed by the numerous insider accounts of faculty, board members, alumni, administrators, and others close to The College, this book tells the tragic tale (a cautionary one) of a small private liberal arts college in the American South (a dinosaur in our modern age of professional specialization) and its desperate quest to survive in a society bent on stifling its flame.

Forward, Ever.

“Cherished by us all forever,
Alma mater strong,
Hold our faithful hearts and minds
As we sing this song.”
