I am the author of The Inkworld Sagas. It is an eight part book series that is a coming-of-age story about Nathaniel Hancock and his relationship with a magical pen.

The first book, Trankarri - The Boy with a Magical Pen has just been re-released and the other seven books will follow shortly behind about every two to three months following their edits and formatting.

It took me sixteen years to write this series and now I am ready to share it with the world.

This is actually the second edition. The first edition I published a little too soon when it wasn't quite ready. This new edition has two new chapters and is arranged much better. After I finished the series I went back and tied a few loose ends and did some final revising.

Writing middle grade fiction

About a month ago I received a pretty well documented review on onlinebookclub.org and in the thread between us she mentioned that she was having a hard time reading other books because she kept wanting to go back to Inkworld; Inkworld being the magical world created by a magical pen.


I thought that was the highest praise because I wanted to write it in such a way that every one who reads Trankarri

“Over time, Nathaniel built an outpost using branches, connecting them with viny growths winding through the brush. He hid a few keys in a few trees and filled his fort with articles of rope, small hand tools, and his trusty sword. Large plastic bags were cut down the center and spread open to make a rain-proof roof.
This was his secret fort. In fact, it was so secret that he kept it hidden from all his friends, even his closest friends; even Juli.
