Books
Stories that spark curiosity, joy, and connection—no matter your age
Whether I’m writing for adults, teens, or children, I’m always chasing the same feeling—that fizz of possibility when an idea takes shape. The age of my reader doesn’t matter as much as play does. I love the puzzle of a story, the rhythm of a sentence, the way writing invites both discipline and delight. Every book is an experiment in wonder—a chance to create, connect, and enjoy the ride.
From young adult novels to picture books, my writing celebrates imagination in all its forms: the way words can surprise us, make us laugh, and help us see the world in new ways. I'm currently working on a murder mystery, which you can find out more about by joining my newsletter.
