I make things, most of them strange, some of them good.

My works thus far include:

• a podcast about a teenage necromancer seeking immortality and revenge
• a young adult novel set in a small town of necromancers
• an adult contemporary fiction about a woman who starts living her life for the first time when she joins a Dungeons & Dragons group
• a text-based adventure where a necromancer has five days to build a creature and make allies before the angry mob comes for them
• short stories and microfiction full of hope, humour, and sometimes a touch of horror.

That so much of my work focuses on necromancers makes sense in an odd way. You see, I’m terrified of death and the dead. So … to write about the things that scare me — to humanize and sometimes humourize them — that’s where I find a deep well of creativity.

As for Dungeons & Dragons — it’s amazing to take something that has had such a profound effect on my life and turn it into fiction. Maybe others will relate to the story. Maybe it will bring others to the hobby. All I know is that I love writing about the experience.

You can find me on Mastodon for a peek into my life, or on Wattpad for a look into the future of my fiction writing.

If you enjoy my work, it would mean a lot to me if you would support me on Patreon or even buy me a coffee on Ko-Fi.

Thanks for visiting.

Soul Jar is an episodic fantasy podcast following Gretel Gravetalker, a teenage “necromancer-on-the-rise” as she attempts to bind her soul into a crystal jar by feeding it a constant story of her life. Each episode takes us deeper into Gretel’s past, as well as revealing new complications in the present.

Gretel is a consummate “classic” necromancer — ambitious, bitter, and hungry for vengeance. But she’s also a young woman trying to find her way in a world that has shunned her, and her journey may not end the way she thinks.

Crazy Cat People is a podcast for anyone who loves to talk about cats. It’s a cozy, casual chat with cat owners — hearing their stories, discussing cat behaviour (in all its oddity), and having a laugh with people about their beloved lifelong companions.

Listen to Crazy Cat People on Youtube.

I have a couple projects in the works, some of which I’m ready to talk about.

NECROLAIR: MAKE FRIENDS

Necrolair is a text-based adventure game where you play a necromancer on the run from an angry mob. You have five days to scavenge for body parts and craft an undead creature to defend you.

The thing is, nobody can really survive alone. Not you, and not your creature.

I hope to have the first episode of Necrolair released this year.

WRITING AUDIO VLOG

I’m audio vlogging about my experiences as a writer generally and during NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month), a writing challenge to write 50,000 words in 30 days. It’s rough and rambling and my accent goes on an adventure of its own — and I think pretty accurately captures what it’s like to be a writer with no clue but the determination to do something.

I’m not someone who has all (or any) of the answers, so it’s less of a writing class and more a peek into one writer’s life. My hope is that charting my struggles and successes will help other writer’s feel less isolated.

You can listen to it on Youtube.
