I write because it makes me happy — because stories have always been my way of understanding the world and sharing a piece of myself with others. My work often lives in the spaces between light and dark, where choice, power, and emotion collide.

I’m grateful for every reader who takes the time to step into these worlds with me.

Please note: while I love and respect all forms of art, I don’t accept unsolicited offers for paid art, promotions, or “fan” commissions. If you’re inspired to create something based on my stories, I’ll appreciate it deeply — but genuine connection means far more to me than sales pitches.
