Current Projects
This series is my first attempt at self-publishing. I’m planning out a six-book category romance series and am about 45k into the first book. This project is a great combination of something I feel confident in marketing and something that I’m thrilled to be writing. I don’t know if there’s much of a superhero niche romance genre out there right now, but there will be when I’m done!
Superhero Romance Series
My first fanfiction story rang in at a solid 163k. I’m outlining the second story in a potential trilogy right now that should be around the same length. It’s just for fun, under a pseudonym, and will probably never be linked to this website, but it is teaching me tons about what I naturally prefer in characters, plot, and tone, why I tend to struggle with endings, and how having limits actually makes me write more creatively and write faster.
Fanfiction
Breathless
Science fiction novel whose first draft is 80% complete. I have a full manuscript request for this, and plans for a rewrite already. This project will be my top priority starting in January of 2021.
The Forest for the Tree
Science fiction short story for Writers of the Future. First draft is finished, but it needs some serious thematic revision.
Minimalism for Dragons: Why Your Hoard Will Never Bring You Happiness
The first in a self-help parody series called "Self-Help for Mythological Creatures." The outline and first chapter are finished.
Possible Future Projects
Of Stone and Glass
Adult fantasy novel with awesome world-building, a handful of cool characters, and no plot. The first chapter won 1st place in the LDStorymakers Writing Conference First Chapter Contest in 2016 and got a full manuscript request because of it, but it literally only has one chapter written. But I love the characters arcs I have in mind, so I'm definitely coming back to this one.
The Deaconess of Sholokov
Adult Russian-inspired fantasy (might end up as historical fantasy) with a handful of characters, a half-baked plot, and whispers of world-building. Needs a lot of prewriting and outlining, but I love Russia and the direction this story is heading, so I'll get to this one eventually.
My Mother's Soul
Adult science fiction novel with 1/3 of the plot and 2/3 of the characters I need to start writing again. I wrote 30K words in an early draft before writing myself into a corner, so this needs a solid outline before I revisit it.
