Unfortunately I will not be giving away copies of my current novels, but there will be future giveaways and super low discounts for eBooks (one currently on Amazon), and paperbacks so please keep watching out for those. Also there will be special promos etc., for the last book in the “Bird Trilogy”. I sure hope you get to read one and look forward to your feedback :)(less)

My Creative Influences: From Stranger Things to Chinua Achebe

Every story begins long before the first line is written.
