Author of The Relics of War, The Caein Legacy, & Wraith and the Revolution
Celebrating Human Artists My social media feeds have been packed with anti-AI posts for months now, but I recently realized something. With all the discourse going on about how bad AI is for the environment, how it’s taking jobs, and hurting human creators, there have been very few posts in my feed actually celebrating those […]
The Worldbuilder Diaries: My approach to dragons Love them or loathe them, dragons (and their kin) are a fixture in the fantasy genre. From ancient myths to Tolkien to modern authors, dragons are a recurring theme and something I think many people are fascinated with. I’m guilty of that fascination myself, and I’ve written my […]
Typos, Glitches, and Postal Fails: The Unexpected Quirks of Publishing a Book At this point in my authoring career, I’ve published 10 full-length novels, 1 novella, 1 short story, and now, an anthology.

I don’t have many featured in my books yet, but I hope you enjoy a few extra […]
The State of My Writing (an Update) It’s been a while since I made my last writing update post. I don’t actually know when the last one was, but I’m pretty sure it was before Wraith and the Revolution was published in June. Which means I’m probably overdue. By a lot. *Does a quick scroll […]
People Just Want Dragons Let me start off by saying I love dragons. I have a few as decorations in my office. I like reading about them. I also write about them on occasion. My logo is a dragon. But if you get into certain social media circles, there’s definitely a vocal group who think […]
The Worldbuilder Diaries: Research This may come as a surprise to some people, but some research is required when writing fantasy novels.
