About Me
Ever since childhood, stories gave me a way to escape. I'd tell myself stories in the middle of the night to distract myself from fear of monsters. As a teen, I'd gladly spend the entire night engrossed in a story so as to avoid the unsettling thoughts of what my future might hold. Now as a parent I see how stories shape the world for children and how the stories we tell ourselves become ingrained in our very souls. I want nothing more than to share the stories swirling around in my head with readers seeking their own escape. I plan to write mostly fantasy, but check out my Current WIP page to discover my latest story.
