Musings available in Multnomah County Library

For you lovely Portland people: because they are awesome and interested in supporting local authors, Multnomah County Library recently bought three copies of my book to supply in the Central, Hollywood and Hillsdale branches.

I'm really excited about this because these seven short stories I wrote are for all ages and I want children, teens and adults to have easy access to imaginative stories that make them think differently and give them a desire to create.

So head on over to the library closest to you and pick up a copy, or put one on hold!

Hooray!

The Outskirts

I am hard at work on my next collection book. The stories will again be urban fantasy/magical realism for the young adult genre!

Here are a couple more quote pictures I made for my current piece, The Outskirts.


The story takes place in New Mexico, which is where I took the photo in the upper picture.

Musings now available on websites like Amazon and Barnes and Noble

I don't know if I can properly express my excitement.

So, I started writing when I was a child and developed a dream of being a published author when I was thirteen. The dream has stayed with me since then, though I had a lot happening with school and dance which left me with little time to focus fully on writing. But these past few months I have had more free time to devote to my favorite art form. (Well, besides dance.)

Luckily, over the years the services of self-publishing have become more and more accessible to those who share this passion of writing. I used a great website called Blurb.com to create my compilation book, doing things like formatting it how I wanted, adding cover images from my collection of photos, and making it just right. By following the path of self-publishing I have been able to achieve my dream.

Basically what I'm saying is that I'm really excited that you can actually find my book on Amazon.com as well as Barnesandnoble.com. My dream of being a published author has pretty much been realized. I am so grateful for the services available to enable me to do this.

This is only the beginning!

Musings: 7 Short Stories ready to buy!

I'm so excited to share that people can now purchase a PDF of my compilation book! I am so grateful to those who helped me with these stories by providing feedback, those who supported my last self-published book project, and those who have already bought a copy of this one!

"Here is a collection of musings. Some are playful and friendly; others are haunting and eerie. It is a collection of tales written over the course of eight years, stories of the fantastic and improbable born from ideas starting with a simple "What if..?" Step into a world where the strange and seemingly impossible can happen to anyone. It is a world of fiction, fantasy and fairytales, where imagination and dreams meet reality." 

Buy it here.

Sneak Peek

"A child learns the chilling reason why everyone in town stays inside on the same night every year."

The Venoctes is a story included in my new book, a collection of short stories called Musings, which I'll have ready to sell next week. Yay!
