I confess to ghosting this blog for over a year now, but I
was busy banging away at a middle grade novel that’s about 80% complete as well
as knocking out some shorter work. I had two awards-eligible short stories
published in 2024 that are linked below. I hope you’ll find time over the
holiday season to check them out. My steampunk/dinopunk story “Clockwork
Dinosaurs” was published by Hyphen Punk
and it’s now free to read. “Strange Rituals” was published in the latest Vanishing Point anthology and it can be
purchased both on their website and on Amazon.
If you enjoy either story, I’d love to hear from you here or
on my preferred social network, Bluesky @matthandle.bsky.social
Clockwork Dinosaurs

A steampunk airship pilot and her crew race against time and rivals to rescue a matriarch’s scepter from dinosaur-infested waters.
Strange Rituals Vanishing
Point, October 2024. 3685 words.
An occult detective takes on the case of an ex-con who had his eyeballs stolen and finds the details of the theft are even stranger than the result.
