She primarily writes young adult fiction and fantasy novels. In her screenwriting, her emphasis is on the real world with a touch of fantastical. She believes that what we see in media impacts how we see the world, and she hopes to make that view brighter.

Acquisition Announcement!

So thrilled to share the news: In Restless Dreams has been acquired by Parliament House!

If you’re familiar with this incredible press, you should be. They have gorgeous covers, they do exclusively fantasy and science fiction, and have I mentioned their Instagram? The aesthetic is to die for (seriously, go check it out!).

It looks like In Restless Dreams is slated for an early 2020 release, so...

This book has such a horrible premise and world building, but the writing is solid and the characters were interesting enough that I found myself wanting to continue reading, even while I railed against how dumb the setting was. The book takes place i ...more

I read this book a long time ago, and went back to it with trepidation. Would it be as wonderful as I remembered? I've grown up a lot since then, and my politics have gotten more aware. In a book with this much kinky sex, a decade could make a danger ...more

Briggs' novels are always a fun time, though I'm starting to get to the point where I think Mercy's story could wrap up and I would appreciate that. It's been a long ride, and she deserves a rest! But, overall, a fun read.
