There was a willow I loved by a creek; sometimes I slept there. I was never afraid, alone in the dark. There was nothing to fear from water and trees and fairytales.

The real monsters were always people.

Can we forgive injustice?

Should we fight, no matter the cost?
How do we move on from great loss?
What would you trade to relive one moment?


I write folklore and mythology inspired dark fantasy. Emphasis on dark. I don't shy away from serious issues and emotions: suicide, depression, mental illness, abuse, death, infertility, and assault are all in my books.

I read a lot of books and there's so many to be excited about. My favorite so far has been DIVINE RIVALS and FOURTH WING, which I suppose is similar to everyone else...

A book I have, and haven't read, and should read is SIX OF CROWS. (less)

A Special project...

It turns out that I'm working on another book in parallel with Descendants of the Fates 4! There are:
- pirates
- mythical beasts
- a handsome prince
- and a stubborn princess with some serious scars

I can't wait to tell you more about it!
