Hello, wonderful readers! As some of you might have seen in my newsletter, I have several goals for the new year. Am I writing this in the middle of January? Yes, but let's not focus on that right now. Rose's Ruin released at the end of last year to much reader enjoyment! It brings me… Continue reading New Year, New Goals, Same Old Me

Rose’s Ruin Cover Reveal!
It seems almost surreal to type out that title. The last time I published a book was almost five years ago, and the imposter syndrome has been REAL. After all, Rose's Ruin is "only" a novella. Can I even feel proud of this moment? (The answer is yes, of course) This story has taken years,… Continue reading Rose’s Ruin Cover Reveal!
Editing a Series That is Years in the Making
Time changes a lot. I wrote Rose's Wrath as a senior in college who was desperate to actually finish a writing project that I was passionate about.

Happy New Year!
Hello, readers! Happy New Year! I remember being a kid and thinking the 2020s seemed so far away, and now it's already 2024!

Little Bear (my daughter) is… Continue reading Happy New Year!
My Writing | It’s Official, Rose’s Ruin is Happening
*checks Rose's Wrath's publication date* *sees it was March of 2020* Well, it's been a while, I'll admit that. Rose's Wrath was published to positive feedback and a deep love for many of the characters! Due to many different things, the next book, Rose's Ruin, has been MIA. I can say, though, that the first… Continue reading My Writing | It’s Official, Rose’s Ruin is Happening

Writing Update | What Happened to the Rose’s War Duology?
Hello, wonderful readers! This past month I took an unexpected break from all things writing simply because I felt far too burnt out to actually put any effort into my projects. That being said, I do still plan to write. It has been my passion for my most life and it will continue to be… Continue reading Writing Update | What Happened to the Rose’s War Duology?

Hello, wonderful readers! Yesterday marked the end of my first semester in college, and boy, was it challenging!
