Welcome to My Writing Room

These are my works in progress, whether they are up on the whiteboard for active drafting or in my notebook being brainstormed.

IN THE BRAINSTORMING NOTEBOOK

These concepts are currently sparking to life, generating lore, and building worlds.

  • The Mind Keeper (Standalone): A sci-fi story centering on a unique custodian employed to watch over stored human memories so their living loved ones can visit. The original concept for this story was born back in college, in the same writing community that sparked my first book.

  • The Casebook of Max Hanley (Working Title) (Standalone): A sharp, engaging noir mystery tailored for middle-grade readers.

  • A Cracked Crossroads (Working Title) (Paths Series Standalone): A unique collaborative story borrowing characters from a colleague's work to explore entirely new corners of a familiar world.

  • The Princess in the Wizard's Tower (Working Title) (Standalone): Left in a tower by a treacherous uncle stealing her throne, princess pieces together magic from forgotten scraps to return and reclaim her kingdom.

  • The Unmapped Port (Standalone Novella): A seafaring romance and quest where Captain Cyrus Tyde tries to vindicate his father's legacy with the help of Tilda, a tavern owner's daughter, and a parrot named Compass who holds the jumbled clues to a hidden treasure.
