Coming Soon!
I have several completed children’s books that I'm trying to figure out illustrations for, but I hope to be able to share those soon. I also have an adult fantasy series in the works; I'm nearly done with my first draft of book one, and I look forward to sharing that as soon as I am able!
I am working towards a career as a self-published author! I have chosen to pursue self-publishing as opposed to professional publishing for a number of reasons. I fully acknowledge that my writing style does not align with the current professional publishing industry's standards, nor do my books follow the current trends and tropes favored by publishers. I grew up primarily reading books written pre-1970s, and that is still the style of literature I adore and admire to this day. I love omniscient POV (which is a perspective commonly used in old books but currently despised by agents and publishers), which I often write in, and I don't believe in adding random subplots simply for the sake of appealing to the majority (I have heard of far too many authors being instructed by an agent to add a romantic subplot to their fantasy novel—even if it doesn't benefit the plotline—simply because romantasy is '“in” right now). The modern publishing industry prioritizes monetary gain above all, which means it must pander to current media trends rather than explore unique or unusal story ideas. My style will not appeal to everybody—probably not even the majority of people!—but that's okay; I write from the heart and I write what I enjoy. I am more than willing to accept constructive criticism on my manuscript and improve the many issues with it (such as grammar, spelling, plotholes, improve character develop, improve pacing, etc.) but the one thing I'm not willing to do is change my story to suite the trends of an ever-changing market.
