The Flames
Throughout my book series, there are constant reminders of a civil war and revolution that took place prior. Whether a character mentions it in a positive or negative way. It is always on their minds. The Bruthaki Flames was the first revolution to topple a monarchy and not immediately restore it. The people of the…

Three Books
One book that has impacted me is the Last Wish by Andrzej Sapkowski, the first book in the Witcher saga. I played the third Witcher video game, which got me into the books. I was in high school and hadn’t read much since elementary school, but starting the Witcher books I fell in love with…

My Own Book…
Is saying that I could read my own books over and over a little too narcissistic? Okay I won’t say my books, plus I’ve already read them multiple times with all the editing and trying to catch any errors. But maybe you’ll like them? So instead I’ll say The Will to Change by bell hooks.…

This might be too deep.
I wish I could do more for the liberation of people. As we enter a harder era for marginalized people in the United States I wish I could somehow save them. Help them. I’m not sure if it’s a savior complex or empathy or just depression… Our trans brothers and sisters, our nonbinary pals, our…

Inspiration
What inspired me to write? There are a lot of reasons I decided to write, and a lot of different things I was inspired by. From television to movies to books to video games. I loved reading in elementary school, but when I entered junior high I didn’t read as much, and in the early…

Elves in my books
I love finding quotes that hold a lot of meaning. I have a book full of quotes that I can pull from, so be ready to see more. The politics in my books, however subtle they be, do deal with settler colonialism and the aftermath of such a thing. I don’t feel like I’m the…

First Post I Guess
Hello world! – that’s what the site had as the title so I’m not going to change it. Decided to make a website. I think it looks good. Mostly to have a place for people to find my stuff, and maybe it will pop up on Google. Also to share things I find interesting, mostly…
