A question I often find myself asking when reading queries is "Why?" Why these characters, why that disaster, why that journey. Please make sure you answer the why's in the queries to me thank you so much! Which means... I'll be opening June 1st!

Don't always share my author profile, but I'm so excited about this step in my creativity. No publishing, no interference with clients. But storytelling all the same. If you're interested in me as a person or my storytelling, please go follow that account.
✨️Announcement ✨️ My very first webcomic will be live Wednesday at 6pm EST. I've decided to create webcomics because long form writing never really fit me. So I hope yall will use my 🔗 in my bio and follow along this quirky series!

Editing my book and realizing my funeral director self managed to switch coroner vs. medical examiner around (each state has different ones…I accidentally did my home state of NE even though the setting is different 😅)

*screams* You can pre-order TAOLF and add it to Goodreads! 🥂(Link in bio) Now the only question is: will you be team Aris or team Nox? If you like Bridgerton and The Vampire Diaries, then my dark romantasy is for you. An heiress trapped in a loveless engagement meets a mysterious stranger, and as forgotten lives resurface, she's drawn into a millennia-old love-and a deadly rivalry between brothers—that could tear her world apart. Exiled to Earth and stripped of his memories, Aris, the ancient God of War, is haunted by the fragmented image of the woman he lost. When a chance encounter with an engaged heiress, Grace, stirs echoes of his past, their connection begins to unravel a curse that has bound them for centuries. But Nox, the God of Death, and Aris' vengeful brother, has his own agenda. As the brothers fight to save Grace, they face an impossible choice that could leave both of them without her-forever. Coming Nov 3 2026 from @orbitbooks_us ! #romantasy #bookstagram #darkfantasy #booktok #authorsofinstagram
