Writing

My main craft and passion is creative writing, and I have honed this craft for over a decade. Below you will find synopses and sample chapters for my long-form fiction manuscripts. Most of these are currently in progress.

Bread & Circuits is a swashbuckling queer science fiction adventure novel set in deep space. Meet an underemployed asteroid miner, a ruthless alien space pirate, and their gang of oddballs as they travel the galaxy.

The Treespooners is a coming-of-age YA novel about a group of teens, banding together to stop the demolition of their favorite stretch of woods. Watch them come to terms with each other’s wildly different upbringings and do their part; if not to save the planet, to at least save their little slice of it.
