Been writing since I was eleven years old, and writing my main series since 2019. While fantasy is the main genre I love to write in, I’ve been delving into romance, cozy fictions, and absolute horror shows.
Things to know:
I am POC, and have no issues whatsoever in aiding and supporting fellow POC authors.
I have not, do not, and will never use nor promote the use of AI in writing any work. AI has no place in writing books, and I will not argue with anyone who actively chooses to use AI as a form of writing.
I do not tolerate any form of racism, discrimination, hate speech, homophobia, or any harmful language.
As far as politics go: Fuck Ice & Fuck Trump; Free Palestine, Sudan, the Congo, and all marginalized communities and people; no one is illegal on stolen land; the only person who has rights to a woman’s body is the woman herself; Black lives matter; LGBTQ+ rights matter; trans lives matter; I will not deviate from any of this.
Books/Series I’m Working on
Dark Fantasy Romance: (First Draft)
A twist on fated mates. He takes her to his world, she does everything in her power to escape it. Even if it means burning it all to the ground.
Dark Fantasy New Adult: (Sixth Draft)
Book five and start of The Verdian Chronicles.
Thousands of years after a war rippling throughout the universe, both the Verdian and Iliadian star systems suffered the curse of a famed warrior’s blood-thirsty sister. Her plan for dominating planet after planet threatens bonds, magic and power, and very foundation of life and death themselves.
Cozy MM romance; pet grief (Rough Draft)
One lost his baby; another lost his buddy. Their entire worlds crumbled the second their dogs drew their last breath.
One day, they meet, all because of a job opportunity. From there? The healing begins, and romance slowly comes after.
