So Excited for this Sequel!

It's been a long time coming, but this sequel is finally going out into the world!

Under the Pawpaw Trees releases July 25th and is available for pre-order now.



Now, do I write a third to make it a trilogy, or do I write the time-travel dystopian I've been planning?

Asking for reviews

Dear readers, the best thing you can do for an indie author is leave a review -- even just a quick "I liked it," and even a negative review is valuable. The more reviews a book has, the more it gets noticed, and that helps the starving artist sell more books.

Help me get to 50 reviews on Amazon by leaving a review for Sitting on Top of the World if you've read it. If you haven't read it yet, I'm so excited for the day you decide to open it up. A great story awaits you!

NaNoWriMo2022!

This November, I'm getting serious about finishing the sequel to Sitting on Top of the World.

For NaNoWriMo2022, I'm aiming for at least 50,000 words, and by the time I finish it, I'm thinking it will be around 70,000.

The working title is Under the Pawpaw Trees. Watch my socials for updates!
