Hi! I’m a writer (scifi, fantasy, detective thrillers) and an editor. I love TMNT, mac & cheese, and fuzzy socks!
Only 3 weeks left until The Makers comes out! a YA scifi thriller. Pre-order so you don’t forget! (Link in comments)
The Makers determine who becomes a Target for elimination. But you have to kill in order to stay alive.

Had a blast at the (very warm) Kenosha Book Fest yesterday. I only *mostly* melted, but it was lovely to meet other #authors #readers. And James Whitemore there in his HOLLOW T-shirt!
Special shout out to Reggie for all your “stronk” help, engaging company, and of course, ice cold water! 🤣🤣

My #books are in another bookstore!
Anyone in the Kenosha, WI area, check out Studio Moonfall! Besides my stuff, they represent indie and #localauthors, so you should definitely check it out and show your book-love support!
This is me with the fantastic owner (and author/artist), Donovan Scherer.

I had a picture sent to me from JR who went to The Dead Deads concert. He said his face makeup from the concert reminded him of the eye makeup on my IDENTITY book cover! 🤣🤣

Traditionally my family and I (and anyone who joined) would go to watch the sunrise over the lake.
Most years, I couldn’t see it, due to the weather.
But even if I couldn’t see it, faith told me it still rose.
After 15yrs I got to go to the lake again. It must’ve known I needed to see the sun.
