The Funeral Director's Vampire

Hi everyone! I am so happy with the progress I have been making with this book. I am on chapter five right now in both the novel version and the graphic novel verson, and its so good. I am genuienly so excited with how this is coming along. Some people have told me that they wished I was working on The Rising Heiress book three, but I think I needed this break. Now when I get back to writing it I can see it with fresh new eyes. I posted teaser art on my pages, so go look at them!!

She's Back!!

She's Back!!

June 19, 2024

 Hi everyone! I am finally back from vacation! Since I've been on vacation, I have gotten no writing done, but that's okay. PSA to all authors out there, taking a break from writing does not make you a bad writer :).  I could have worked on it yesterday if I am being honest, but I instead spent 5 hours learning Bella's Lullaby from Twilight LOL.

On a side note, I have been really excited about my webtoon that I'm doing with a friend. She is such a talented artist, so this is going to be so great!!!

I am also thinking about doing a fan art contest, let me know what you think about that idea in the comments!

Love all of you!!

 Hi everyone! I have some fun projects to announce! I have officially gotten the ball rolling for an Audiobook version of my books! I am very excited about this. I have always dreamed of having my books in audiobook version.

Another exciting update, I have been working with a very talented artist towards making a webtoon! Right now its title is "The Funeral Director's Vampire" but that is subject to possible change. I'm super excited about it though!
