If you'd like to buy my books in paperback, you can now get them directly through IngramSpark. Just click the links below.
You can get some of my books in paperback on a few other sites as well, but I you'll find they're cheapest from IngramSpark.
Personally I prefer to read books electronically these days. I just like the fact that I can fit thousands of books on my device, I can read it in the dark, I can make the fonts bigger, and I don't need a bookmark.
But of course, there is something to be said for old school. I do love that new book smell, and there's something that just feels right about having an actual book in your hand. So if you prefer paperbacks to e-readers, I'm certainly not going to tell you you're wrong.
However, I will say that if you're buying my books, the digital versions are much cheaper. I made the paperback versions as cheap as I could set them, and for most of them I'm only making about thirty cents per sale. But then, I was never in this for the money; I just like writing.
As always, you can purchase the digital versions of my book from this landing site, which will link you to Amazon and other e-book retailers:

Side Quests is a collection of short stories. The tales span a variety of genres, from sci-fi to fantasy to horror.
What stories does this collection contain?
The NPC: A non-player character in a tabletop RPG inadvertently changes the plot.
Different: A group of young friends encounter aliens in a small town.
Playing God: A new method of execution faces scrutiny.
Eyes: In the near future, the government spies on its citizens at all times.
Unfinished Business: A woman encounters an unusually coherent zombie.
The Answer: A ship full of female astronauts encounters a strange object.
Moving On: A woman suspects her new roommate of being a vampire.
Dream Sequence: A high school student believes reality might be a dream.
Road Hog: Two bounty hunters search for a car-obsessed villain.
New World: Society reawakens after a thousand years underground.
Story Nuggets: Five succinct stories for short attention spans.
Are there any content warnings I should be aware of before reading the book?
If you're conservative, you'll have a bad time. A lot of the stories feature my leftist views.
What inspired you to write this collection?
I was let go from work, and I had a lot of free time during my final few months. When I'm bored, I write.
What is your favorite story in Gender Rolls?
New World. It's a concept I haven't written before.
What is your least favorite story in Gender Rolls?
Dream Sequence. I don't particularly like the main character. He makes a couple of questionable decisions that make me question his morals.
What challenges did you face when writing the book?
My wife passed away as I was wrapping up the book. It was hard to find the emotional energy to finish it. I might have to take a break from writing while I recover, so don't be surprised if I don't release anything else for a while.
Who designed your cover?
I designed and photographed it myself. My wife was a resin crafter, and she made the dice.
Is this a standalone collection, or part of a series?
This is my fourth short story collection in what I call the "Random Xinery" series. The other three are Geek Cutes, Rainbow Nightmares, and Gender Rolls. Most of the stories are unconnected, but there are a few that are set in the same universe.
Where can I buy this book?
It’s available on Amazon and several other e-retailers. You can also pick it up on itch.io if you don't like DRM. And if you want to buy everything I've written all at once, it's included in an ich.io bundle.
I have more questions.
Great! Check out my FAQ and see if I answer it there. If not, feel free to contact me on social media.
