I love a good weepy series but don’t like to write them because I can’t focus on the words, which is difficult, because I’ve made myself cry a few times while writing.

I am a storyteller who has always felt the world most clearly through imagination—not as an escape, but as a way to witness and repair what is broken. Growing up, I was drawn to the kinds of stories where wonder walked alongside grief: Treasure Planet, Atlantis, Hercules—tales where flawed heroes stumble toward growth, where loss leaves scars, but where light is still worth carrying forward. Those stories taught me that hope is not naive; it’s hard-won. That same lesson shapes everything I write.
