Orsson vs McInroy
R.K. Orsson was a pseudonym that I came up with when I was in high school. I didn’t quite know what to do with it, but it was always there in the background. Then in 2020, I put together a small collection of poetry which was a very heavy process, so I decided to use the pseudonym as a way to put it out without being attached to it.
So, now that’s what it’s become. R.K. Orsson is a way for me to put things out at a sort of distance, whereas anything under my name James McInroy is the kind of writing that I’ve always wanted to be known for.
I hope you enjoy one, or both of these pieces of me.

My Beloved: A word from our readers
This book is a fantastic read with its vivid writing and suspenseful twists. Orsson pays homage to Shelley's classic while diving into how how, in our modern world, we confront loss, madness, and the limits of human emotion. It's a great addition to the Gothic storytelling tradition!
