Hi and welcome to my tumblr! 📘
I am a long time author who started in my teens writing anime fanfiction. Meaning, I've been writing for over 20 years. And my OG stories still haunt the bowels of fanfiction .net. 😅 I also used to turn in some of my fanfics for high school writing assignments and even had a teacher read one to the class once. It was a Rurouni Kenshin story but with all the names changed. 🤣 And yes, I died a little inside that day, but it's a story I love to tell.
Around 2016, I decided to pursue writing original work and getting it published. In 2019 I achieved that goal when my first short story was accepted to an anthology publication. ❤️ I am still penning a 4 book YA fantasy series that is presently on hold while I deal with burn out from the last few years, but I am working toward getting that behemoth off the ground. I mostly write fantasy of all types, and love to blend genres. And I pile humor on everything like a heavy-handed Olive Garden server with the cheese grater.
Even though my intent is to go indie with my work due to the many issues I have with traditional press, I still have a lot of knowledge and insight to the biz. So if you are a fledgling writer who is also considering getting published, don't hesitate to reach out. I love helping fellow writers. There is a lot of competition and predation in the industry, sadly. But I am not one of those people. I also know how lonely of an experience it can be for writers without a community. I was there for a long time before finding mine. I truly have "been there". If you have questions about anything at all writing wise, ask away! If I don't have an answer for you, I can at least point you in the right direction.
In my non-writing life, I am happily married to my life partner and best friend of 17 years. He is my biggest support and #1 fan. We have two little boys together, whom I homeschool. I have way too many hobbies like cooking, baking, canning, knitting, sewing, gardening, gaming and watching the occasional anime.
