About me

Gender Female
Industry Arts
Occupation YA fantasy writer
Location Boise, Idaho, United States
Introduction I live in a crazy little townhouse with five kids, a bunch of half-finished steampunk projects, and lots of laundry.

My YA steampunk book, Cobalt, is being published by Xchyler Publishing! I'm working on a new YA dark fantasy about sea zombies and plotting Cobalt's sequel.

When I'm not reading or writing fiction, I'm usually doing my day job writing articles for attorneys and other clients, playing dress up, burning food, injuring my feet, fending off hungry kids, or procrastinating on everything else I should be doing.
