I write science fiction and fantasy

​

Enjoy my latest reviews, essays, short stories, and other updates. Most of my reviews have writing tips that are inspired by the close reading of works I am fond of. This may be useful for a wide range of fiction writers. All this and more will be found on my blog!

​

I graduated summa cum laude with a BA in English and a concentration in creative writing. Currently, I work full-time in higher education and tutor English on the side for my practicum to earn my TEFL certificate. ​

​

My writing has earned the Steven G. Kellman Endowment (2019) for creative non-fiction and eleven honorable mentions from L. Ron Hubbard's Writers of the Future competition, a world-renowned writing contest. One of my goals this year is to submit a winning short story in this contest or to get a short story published elsewhere (aka 'pro out' as my fellow forumites on the WOTF forum would say).

 

My biggest goal is to complete my five-year-long work in progress and to get it traditionally published. I am considering returning to blogging and YouTube to provide updates!
