Why I write
"My goal is to write the kinds of books I love to read:
Epic fantasy with a unique twist.
Dark narratives balanced by humor and wit.
Wildly creative world building and magical systems.
Relatable, nuanced characters who are never perfect.
Cliche-free plots set in a world I’ve never seen before.
Stories that walk a tightrope between fantasy and science fiction.
Clever, thought-provoking concepts.
A physical book that I’m proud to have on my shelf because its design is as much a work of art as the story within.
