My stories are full of action—things blow up, burn down, and dissolve into puddles of goo—but the outcomes hinge on acts of compassion and cooperation. The characters you'll meet in these stories know the cost of hope and the weight of despair. They find safety and shelter with one another, fitting together at their broken places to become stronger together. Their big victories grow from small acts of kindness and understanding. (My goal is to create imaginary worlds that feel as real as the one we inhabit.)

If we meet in real life, you'll find I am short, squeaky, and energetic, with a thirty-percent chance of loud. Nitty-gritty professional details are on my official About page. My personal emblem is a phoenix, and my house motto is Spes Semper Vincit.
