“Her eyes hurry across a field of dust and light and wind. It is sweet relief, like glass shattered against stone, to feel the spectre of her simmering rage tilt her chin upward.”

I enjoy writing stories set in fictional worlds. It’s no surprise since growing up I exclusively read a lot of science fiction and fantasy novels. Of late, I’ve been gaining an interest in free-verse poetry as well and I’m interested in exploring short stories and flash fiction.

 Some of my favourite authors include Leigh Bardugo, Sarah J Maas, V.E. Schwab, and Erin Morgenstern. When I read I try to enjoy stories as much as find lessons I can learn about the craft of writing and how to hone my own, unique writing style.

Right now, I have an entire list of projects in development. Such as poetry books, art zines, collections of prose and short stories, novels and novellas. Below, you’ll find my most recent and favourite of my works-in-progress.

current project.

Progress: drafting
Genres: high fantasy & new adult
Started: May 2020

The Elves have always been regarded as the oldest and most arcane across the continent, hidden within their forests and mountains of the Northern Realm where no one dares to venture. For the first time in 4,000 years a celestial phenomenon known as the Golden Star travels across the sky, inciting chaos in its wake. A company of elves sworn to their courts, but forced to work together, depart from their mysterious corner of the world on a quest for knowledge and power, and a means to undo evil that has been set upon their world.

More details coming soon. Photo credit @ Unsplash.
