Causes of Melancholy according to Robert Burton (“The Anatomy of Melancholy”, 1621)
Original Sin
Venison
Anger
Excessive Solitude
Demons
Standing Waters
Banishment
Cabbage
Too much sex
Admittedly, being banished to a stagnant pond to have angry sex in the cabbage with a dead deer, while alone with your demons and original sin, doesn't exactly scream 'mental stability.' You can’t quite call it depression, but it’s certainly too much work to be considered idleness.

The Alien House
Ralph is Michael’s inner voice. Sarcastic. Brutal. Always watching.
He also thinks aliens are real.
Michael just thinks he’s losing it.
'The Alien House' is what happens when both might be right.

✨ Free for Two Days Only ✨
My literary-speculative novella Sustenance is going free on Kindle this Sunday & Monday (Sept 7–8, 2025).
Always free with KindleUnlimited — but for these two days, it’s free for everyone.
Small-town Iowa. Dust, beer, and rusted pickups. Then a crash in the fields, violet-skinned visitors, and a story about language, desire, and the limits of understanding.
