About Me
Hi, I’m RJ! I’m a writer, poet, and small press editor from the mountains of southwest Virginia. I’m a lover of the Gothic, the uncanny, the Romantic, and the surreal. I recently completed my Master’s Degree in English Literature, and have a particular fondness for medieval death poetry and J. S. Le Fanu’s In a Glass Darkly. I enjoy weird horror, gardening, and classic anime. You can find my work, both published and forthcoming, in the lists below. I’m a member of Codex and the SFPA. Connect with me on Bluesky, or via my contact form.
