Welcome to Line & Verse.
Set at a traditional Southern college in 1997, it’s a story of tailgates, fraternity life, and the unspoken truths that change us. Think warm nights, whispered conversations, and the moments that stay with you long after they happen.
You’ll follow Ethan, a freshman learning the rhythms of campus life, as he’s drawn into the world of Delta Chi — and toward Eli, a charismatic junior whose attention feels as dangerous as it is magnetic.

Beyond Line & Verse, subscribers also get my weekly essays and reflections—pieces that look at books, films, and culture through the same lens of memory, identity, and change. Some Sundays it’s a longer essay on history or politics; other weeks it’s a “Reading & Watching” post on what I’m engaging with right now. Taken together, these essays sit alongside the fiction, creating a fuller picture of the themes running through my work.
You can find these under the “Reading & Watching” section or the “Personal Reflections” section.
Paid subscribers will soon get early access to upcoming chapters, bonus scenes, and behind-the-scenes notes about how Line & Verse is written. If you’ve been enjoying the story so far, consider supporting it — every subscription helps keep it going.
