I'm a queer, neurodivergent author and editor. You can read my work in Wyngraf or in my novella The Cartomancer's Curse. When I'm not writing or falling in love with the book I'm editing, I'm swing dancing the night away.

I had the time of my life at Worldcon! I volunteered, met new friends, added books to my TBR list, and spoke on panels. It was a delight to nerd out in Editing as an Art Form, giggle my way through Twenty Years of Twilight, and regroup with my writing group at the end of the day. @seattlein2025.org

I’m so pleased to finally be able to share my winning NYC Midnight story with everyone.

I write about grief often—it’s how I process, and how I work though my fears. This story was no exception.
We are proud to present the winning story from last year's 500-word Fiction Challenge! Read "Watchmaker's Hands" by
