Digs deep into world statistics in various subjects, how to read stats, misleading news headlines, and more.
Well worth the read to get a better sense of asking the right questions.

Instagram post 2187160399248383230_1463475245 COVER & TITLE REVEAL
Fire, Pain, & Ruin. A @rutherford.manor novel.
My upcoming novel for 2020.
It is in beta/proof and the initial feedback from the test readers is astounding. 
Here's some little tid bits about it from the official Rutherford Manor Facebook:
---
Trying to live a normal life in the world of Rutherford Manor is difficult at best and sometimes impossible for the residents of the infamous household. Lisa and Louise Savidge are now young teenagers with a growing interest in the world, boys, and the family business. 
Spalding and Penny Savidge certainly have their hands full with these young and highly curious girls and that doesn’t include all of the trauma, family dynamics, infatuation, past loves, supernatural events, and ancient dark curses that they must all endure. 
All of this and MUCH MORE will unfold in our next Rutherford Manor book; Fire, Pain, & Ruin written by Konn Lavery - Horror Author! 😈
This time around our story includes RMU fan favorites including Spalding, Penny, Lisa, Louise, Nox, Lilith, Billy, Vivian, The Connors, and the mysterious Midwives of Rowley! 
Launching in Spring 2020.  More news coming very soon!
----- Cant wait to get this out to you all!

It also marked the last show of the year for me. Now, it's time to buckle down and get to work on the second @rutherford.manor novel and Mental Damnation IV.
Huge thanks to everyone this year for the love and support for my writing. Through the release of The White Hand, the flash fiction on the blog, and short stories found in @straybooksltd and Constellate Publishing. 
I'll be sure to keep you all updated on progress, post more flash fiction, and share pictures of Spank the cat.
Catch you online.

Future Babble by Dan Gardner.
Pretty fun evaluation on predictions. It is a little dated (2010) and focuses on the 2008 US crash. It also shares major predictions over the past 100 years. Yes, it covers Y2K.
The writing style is humorous which makes it more engaging too.

Started a music project @woke.band
Music has been an outlet for me as long as I can remember. I started learning to write and play back in 2014, mostly in the industrial, noise, and ambient genres. 
It has shown up in the Seed Me novel score and the YEGman novel score, supporting my fascination with transmedia storytelling.
Now, the musical interest has taken a life of its own in a new direction. I'm stoked to start up the project @woke.band.
The first single coming out this month! Stay tuned.
