My Writing

~Novels~

For the most part, all of my writing is told from the Young Adult perspective. I am a lover of all things magical, mysterious, and mythological; therefore, many of my works incorporate these elements. I primarily write urban/contemporary fantasies that tend to skew more toward the side of magical realism with a literary bent. 

Some people say magic doesn't exist in our world . . . and to those people, I say this: It exists all around us--you just have to seek it out; some people might have to look a bit harder than others, but it's there. It's those tiny, shiny, not-so-easy-to-spot shimmery things that make the world just a bit more interesting.

~Short Stories~

My short literary fiction, rooted in magical realism, has been published in a few print literary journals and online publications.
