Discover "Siren's Song" – Free Prequel to the Ravenglass Legends Series!

I am thrilled to announce that my latest story, “Siren’s Song”, a prequel to Ravenglass Legends series, is now available to read for FREE on Ream! In this gripping tale, a haunting melody lures ships to their doom on the treacherous Braun Sea. When Ragnar, the young heir to the chieftain, learns of the mysterious disappearances, he defies his father and sets sail with his loyal friend Kest to…

Did a father of five fake his own death? And what’s Bigfoot got to do with it? Read “The Truth Is Out There” (issue no. 45) to find out:

Bruce considers himself a cryptozoologist, someone who searches for and studies animals whose very existence is disputed. Unlike some of the more eccentric types in the field, Bruce is organized and methodical. He has published papers every bit as dry as those in other areas of study—they just happen to be about relict hominoids, sea serpents, and lake monsters.

His specific obsession with Bigfoot began when he was a kid, more than 50 years ago. In fact, it was right around the time his father disappeared. Bruce is reluctant to allow that the two things might be connected, but it’s hard to see it any other way.

Bruce hasn’t looked for the truth about what happened with his father nearly as hard as he’s looked for Bigfoot. Still, the truth keeps finding him and his family. Over the past five decades, revelations about a man who left home one day and never came back have taken Bruce and the rest of the Champagnes by surprise—again and again and again.

My hand slipped and I made a timeline of the real lives of all the Poe Party attendees. Just, y'know. For fun.

Interesting notes (spoilers ahoy): - The timeline is SO close to being exactly 200 years: Jane Austen was born December 16 1775, and Agatha Christie died January 12 1976. - The closest two in both life and death dates were Emily Dickinson and Louisa May Alcott: they both lived to the age of 55, and their lives were only offset by two years. - Neither of the two most long-lived attendees, H.G. Wells (died at 79) and Agatha Christie (died at 86), survived the evening. - Hemingway was the last to be born, but Christie was the last to die. - Christie outlived everyone, both in terms of age and death date, but she had the least screen time. - Austen was the first born, and in the show she was the first to die. - Charlotte Bronte was the shortest lived at just 38, followed by Poe (40) and Austen (41). - Fun fact: Mary Shelley is definitely haunted, she kept moving around and loading incorrectly for no reason and I ended up having to retake the screenshot three times.

I put this together out of curiosity, because my roommate and I were musing about the disparate lifetimes of the authors, and figured I might as well share it. If you feel like this is Anne Bronte and Ralph Waldo Emerson erasure, you can make your own!

It is August 26th, which means it’s basically September, which means it’s basically Halloween. Thus, in honor of spooky season’s kickoff, I give you two stellar webseries recommendations from Shipwrecked Comedy.

Headless: A Sleepy Hollow Story is a modern spin on Washington Irving’s Legend of Sleepy Hollow.

Edgar Allan Poe’s Murder Mystery Dinner Party is a Clue-inspired mystery about Edgar Allan Poe throwing a murder mystery dinner party with several famous authors, only for his guests to start dying one by one.

Both are so much fun with spectacular writing and so many incredible performances. You will not be disappointed. Happy spooky season!

Most of my knowledge of classic literature comes from watching Edgar Allan Poe’s Murder Mystery Dinner Party.

I've been thinking about Edgar and Annabel for THREE HOURS

Years ago, when I first saw that shot of Edgar carrying Annabel through the house, just know my brain chemistry was changed forever. Shipwrecked comedy: Breaking hearts since 2013 <3

In need of something spooky but also funny this Halloween season? Love A Series of Unfortunate Events or Pushing Daisies? Want a new take on a well-known classic?

May I recommend Headless: A Sleepy Hollow Story by Shipwrecked Comedy - airing now for free on YouTube. It’s a modern reimagining of Washington Irving’s The Legend of Sleepy Hollow that puts Ichabod Crane and The Headless Horseman together as roommates, searching for the Horseman’s lost head.

In addition to being chock-full of internet faves like Jon Cozart (Paint), Matt Mercer, Ginny Di, Krystina Arielle, Joanna Sotomura, Lauren Lopez, The Tin Can Brothers, and more, it’s independently produced, beautifully shot and scored, hilarious and just spooky and mysterious enough to scratch your seasonal Halloween content itch. 

Shipwrecked consistently puts new, imaginative spins on classic tales, and if you would like to see Hollywood produce more original content rather than just churn out more reboots and sequels, please take the time to watch, support, and share the sort of content that Shipwrecked Comedy creates. If you loved Edgar Allan Poe’s Murder Mystery Dinner Party, you’re sure to enjoy Headless.

So don’t wait! Catch up with Headless: A Sleepy Hollow Story today. Only a few more episodes before the finale airs on Halloween.
