This cat is Aegelis, a Christian author and biochemist who invites you to encounter excitement and wonder within books and beyond. Passionate about themes such as purpose, faith, and redemption, Aegelis provides the intensity of Edgar Allan Poe's tales along with poetic introspection inspired by Emily Dickinson.
Outside the writing desk (and the lab), Aegelis enjoys date nights with his wife, online and retro gaming, wushu, theatre, movies, comics, antique postcard collecting, Indian food, and the social connection of yard sales. You'll likely find him driving or dancing (or both) to Techno, Rock, Trip-Hop, Alternative, and World music.
My love of movies, such as "Psycho" (1960), "Silence of the Lambs" (1991), and "Joker" (2019) have long fueled my interest in psychological thrillers. I classify my books as edgy cozy mysteries, choosing to blend suspense, shocking twists, and deeply disturbed villains, with a sprinkle of romance and satisfying endings. My stories prominently feature dogs, which I love, focusing primarily on working dogs because I find their unique skills fascinating. My husband, two wonderful black Labrador Retrievers, and I live in picturesque New England. Some of my best ideas come when I’m out walking with "my guys."
