Reader, writer, editor, educator

I’m glad you’re here! Please use the navigation bar at the top of the page to find your way around. The Substack tab will take you out of this website to my Substack page. Stay tuned for several works-in-progress that will begin making an appearance over there this summer! I’m excited to bring you more regular content, a greater variety of intentional content, and a few new things.

Coming soon, you can expect a regular schedule of book thoughts (mostly fantasy, YA, and pre-1900); grammar and mechanics explanations; writing prompts, exercises, and thoughts; and my own fiction.

Reading maketh a full man; and writing an exact man. — Francis Bacon

You can always edit a bad page. You can’t edit a blank page. — Jodi Picoult

There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you. — Maya Angelou

The first draft is just you telling yourself the story. — Terry Pratchett
