My first book, Many Drops Make a Stream, is a queer fantasy adventure about a vigilante shapeshifter reluctantly teaming up with a seemingly normal human to fight a cult of memory-stealing mages. I’m hard at work on the sequel!

Thanks for doing this!

Many Drops Make a Stream is a queer fantasy adventure in which a shapeshifter vigilante must team up with a seemingly normal human on a rescue mission. Features memory-stealing blood mages, friendly rats, and at least one goose attack.

The shelter found these two in a Wal-Mart parking lot! Snuggliest cats ever—the only cats I’ve ever met who like (or tolerate) tummy rubs.

I am not a heartless monster, so I picked him up to show him the lack of lap real estate. He tested the viability of chest-as-lap, but ultimately gave up.
