My writing inspiration is sprawling novels that sweep readers away in atmospheric murder mysteries, thrilling adventures, political corruption, fraud, and love lost. 'Leaping Into the Abyss' is comparable to Stieg Larsson's Millennium series or James Patterson's Alex Cross series, with a touch of magical realism and cultural elements, such as my hometown hero Virginia Hamilton's The House of Dies Drear.
I am the self-published author of three additional novels: the action/drama Roadkill Pathfinder Pt. I and Roadkill Crossroads Pt. II and the family drama Eat@Zeke's. I first self-published periodicals when I was fourteen.

Review of Eat@Zeke's by Chandra Claypool of 'Where the Reader Grows" Blog, March 2019. "The characters are a lot of fun, and I love that they all center around Mama. Their closeness because of her is on point. The community as a whole is fantastic. I love that you're doing something different, so the work stands out!"
