His latest book, The Plain of Pillars, is a subversive retelling of Irish Mythology that has been described as “a mastery of genre fiction, being lyrically impressive and philosophically engaging,” (Independent Book Review) and won the 2025 Fantasy Book of The Year (Independent Publishers).
He is the co-founder of Timshel Wildland, a kincentric rewilding and relational conservation project in Virginia, and Unshod, an organization rooted in kinship and ancient crafts, which also hosts a weekly, long-form conversation podcast.
He lives in Virginia with his wife and three children.
