Books are political—and so is this page.
I write stories that reflect the world we live in and the world we hope to build.
If you’re here for honesty, empathy, and resistance through story, welcome. 💙

🌈 Happy Pride Month!
I’m writing my first sapphic + bi paranormal fantasy romance — witch foster sisters, ancient curses, and queer love that refuses to be erased.
Because stories are resistance.
Fuck the patriarchy. Fuck the government.

“Write like no one is watching.”
Because they aren’t. Not yet. And that’s the gift. Write the messy drafts. Write the cringey dialogue. Write the scene that’s too much. You can always edit later. But you can’t edit a blank page.

Sometimes the hardest battles aren’t on the field—they’re the ones inside your heart.
This is your first peek at the cover of PERSONAL FOUL, a story about first love, second chances, & the fear of never being enough.
It’s about the boy who wants to be better…& the girl who’s afraid to believe him.

It’s #MusicMonday, & this week’s song pick hits hard for my WIP, PERSONAL FOUL.
“Good Enough” from the Netflix musical A Week Away captures the quiet self-doubt that both Mikayla & Jordan carry—no matter how confident they seem on the outside.
What song would soundtrack your WIP?

Writing Update: Personal Foul (draft 4) is 43% complete and full of angst, heart, and slow-burn tension. Mikayla and Jordan weren’t supposed to fall for each other—but they are. I’m so deep in this story it hurts (in the best way). This one’s going to break some hearts. #WIP #PersonalFoul #yaromance
