Unexpected (but happy) ever afters.
Welcome to my world of fiction and plays.
My stories celebrate young people who never give up the struggle to win their heart’s desire without losing themselves.
Do you enjoy coming-of-age stories in historical settings where the real often stumbles into the other-worldly? Are you lured by literary mash-ups, remixes and retellings? Then we might be on the same page. Please read on!
Coming of age may feel like a fairy tale romance, mythical adventure, dark comedy, or shattering historical drama. And that’s just on Monday. I follow my characters wherever their story takes them.
I believe with my whole heart that history is as wild and varied as any fantasy.
My passion is exploring the mazes of art, music, literature, and lore. My stories do that, too.
My books are mostly stand-alones. My characters are one-of-a-kind, so my novels are too.
