I meant to write up something sooner, but I’ve been under the weather.
Firstly, HAPPY NEW YEAR! Hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday and is starting this year off with good intentions.
2025 was an interesting year to say the least. I’m sure many people’s sanity was tested. Still, this last year was monumental for me as I published my first novel, Without A Star. That project had been weighing on me for years and it felt incredible to finally release it into the wild. I’m doing my best to take pride in it and not beat myself up for not finishing sooner. Global Distribution is still pending so you won’t find the book on the megalithic sites, but both the physical copy and ebook is available through this website. Check it out if you haven’t yet. Fans of The Little Prince will certainly appreciate it.
As for this year, there are lots of plans and projects! Of course some of those plans are the same from the last few years, but we are still moving in the right direction if only slower than anticipated.
Jellyfish Monster Sequel - writing and illustrations are done, we are now in the formatting process and hope to publish by this summer
The Ghost Collectors - currently working on draft 3 of this novel about a group of friends that have to catch a bunch of ghosts after unwittingly letting them loose on their town.
The Ghost Collectors Sequel - also working on the first draft of the sequel!
Chrysalides - an epic fantasy novel still in the first draft/world-building stage. I’m really excited about all the magic and species that will feature in this story. I’ll definitely be pulling from some D&D experience.
There will be some short stories and smaller projects too (hopefully), but those are definitely the focuses for 2026. I’m looking forward to sharing them all with you!
Wishing you all a great year and hope that all your plans and wishes come to fruition!
