RECENT PUBLICATIONS/ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Daniel's latest novel, Advice from a Cat, is now available in Ebook and Paperback, published by fandango 4 Art House. Following Daniel's previously acclaimed novels, The Woman in the Sun Hat (2021 Seattle Book Review Recommendation) and Graphic Nature, Advice from a Cat is a compelling, psychological tale of Brian, a man in his late 30s, who strives to be an instrument of good: working at a non-profit in the Bronx, volunteering, participating in charity events and heeding the wisdom of inspiring sages, before a harrowing event from his past forces him to confront who he once was. $1 from each purchase will go to the Blind Cat Rescue and Sanctuary in St. Pauls, NC.

Daniel is thrilled to announce that Bottlecap Press has just released his second poetry book, The Concrete Jungle and the Surrounding Areas, available in Ebook and Paperback. Many of the assembled poems take aim at the unflinching reality of life in a formidable city, while others go further back to Daniel’s adolescent past. Within that span, the collection moves seamlessly from transportive odes on the absurdities of life, aging, childhood, survival, along with affectionate homages to the wildlife of the city. Some are about birds. One is about a moth. One is about two feral cats. And most contain the undeniable backdrop of New York City. (Click on image)
