I was born and raised in North Carolina. I've been working on the Riddle universe since November of 2001, and just recently finished the first book in the trilogy.

I’m Not Quite Done Yet

I wrote the end of the manuscript for Book 3 yesterday, but I am not quite done. There’s still things I want to add to the narrative.

That’s what I’m going to be starting today.

Once these additions are done, I’m going to be moving on to printing the draft for the next stage. I feel like the book is in a better place, and that might be because of how I decided to approach this draft.
