Looking for readers who are TIRED of the SAME OLD THING.
We need more truth in our stories. Not more tropes. We need reality—not more fantasy. Why? AI is going to replace us unless we can get back to celebrating the HUMAN experience. I write about things I know. Not things I've read about. Then I blend that experience into fiction. If you care about the fate of humanity in fiction, join my newsletter and support my work. Because I am not doing this for money. I am writing my stories for the people who are overlooked and underserved. Trauma survivors in particular. I need to find people like me, and I hope I do.

The Prequel
This is a story about soulmates.
Not the good kind, though.
The star-crossed kind.
The type that life sabotages every step of the way.
Two beautiful people.
Secret trauma survivors.
About to make some bad life choices.
We are all somewhere aching.
Wishing we were someone else, or with someone else.
But knowing how to seize the things you want in life seems to be the superpower of only a special few.
Not these two.
Which is why their love story feels so poignant, and their struggle feels so real.
I promise the ending will be a happily ever after.
But not yet.
Their love is one in a million, and that means one million circumstances are standing between them.
It's time to start moving these obstacles out of the way for this angry girl and this broken boy.
