If you are out shopping around and have that need for books, go take a look at Marissa’s Books and Gifts in Salt Lake City Utah and while you’re there, grab a copy of my book, Before the Hunger: Blood, Salt, Dust from their local authors section (it is back by the religion area, go figure, haha!).
This collection was shaped by an ache, the strange beauty of what remains in absence, and the terror it may bring.
Or, you can buy it online here –
A couple of limited release t-shirts are available now as well as a hoodie and some stickers. On demand printing so that I don’t have to sit on a bunch of boxes at home but I will have some extra’s around in case you don’t want to pay for shipping and live nearby.
Cheers!

My first collection of dark fiction, Before the Hunger: Blood Salt Dust, is now available in print through Lulu. Five haunting stories bound in ritual, dream, and decay… each one meant to linger. If you’ve been waiting to hold something strange and beautiful in your hands, now’s the time.
Every marketer knows the customer journey should feel seamless. But the truth? Most of the time it’s chaos. You have emails firing like stray bullets from five different teams. Followed by in-app prompts that collide like drunks in an alley. Lastly, your campaigns trip over each other in the dark.
Whether you’re building lifecycle flows for a SaaS platform, trying to make storefronts feel personal to millions of shoppers, or pushing adoption campaigns to enterprise leaders, the need is the same: clarity in the mess.
Here’s what I’ve learned:
Lifecycle marketing is about the orchestration. Less noise.
Onboarding, activation, adoption: these aren’t one-offs. They’re chapters in a single story. Strong customer marketing is about making the rhythm tight enough that people don’t even notice the seams.
Segmentation works best when it feels human.
When you get it right, personalization feels like the site knows you. Lock step as you dive more deeply. But get it wrong, and it feels like someone is breathing down your neck and eyeballing your screen for weeks at a time. The difference is building experiences that simplify, not suffocate.
Persona marketing is empathy scaled.
You can’t just bucket “Customer Success” and call it done. Leaders are under pressure. They’ve got numbers to hit, fires to put out. Persona-led marketing means telling the story they need to hear at the exact moment they are ready to hear it.
At the end of the day, the job isn’t just pushing messages for the sake of pushing messages out. It’s being the air traffic controller, sequencing what matters, keeping the sky clear enough for the customer to land where they need to.
When you do those things, even at a minimum, your lifecycle marketing stops being noisy. It becomes narrative.
