This is 40 and a sixth time published author. Peep the 7th book waiting for 2026 (and possibly a clue to an 8th book? Nooooo, right?).

Thank you for the support this last year, I know it’s tough and there’s so much going on, but I’m grateful for all of you.

wrote this book in 2017, never subbed it. Finally revised with sharper, better skills, fantastic feedback from my agent, and whewwww. What a book! Scifi. Dystopian. The angriest story I’ve ever written. YA/New Adult. Action-packed. 🤞🏽

Very lucky I live in Germany and could take a little trip over to Scotland for a few days. Some of it for research on another YA cozy romantasy… most of it for food and sights

Remembering when people wrote through my website form to say I should stop writing my crappy books and go back to baking. Anyway, I made these blueberry oatmeal muffins while working through revisions. Don’t limit me! I can do both, thank you.

So anyway, triple chocolate m&m cookies. Because Monday.

This is where I’m working on my cozy YA fantasy about food today. Germany is treating me well these days.
