Welcome to my Website
Welcome to carljshirley.com. I'm a writer and photographer based in Virginia, and this is where I share the activities that keep me busy outside of day-to-day life.
My novel, The Twisted Sword, is under contract with Blue Fortune Enterprises. Check the book's page for updates as the publication date approaches.
When I'm not writing, I'm usually outdoors with a camera. Browse my photo gallery — or head over to Flickr for the full archive. I've also been working my way through every Virginia State Park, photographing each one along the way.
I also post regularly on Substack, sharing stories, essays and photographs at the Four Mile Circus.
