To Every Writer, Author, and Reader Out There — I Want to Tell You About My Book
I want to talk about my debut novel, "Wonderment Within Weirdness." Not in a sales pitch kind of way, not with a rehearsed elevator pitch or a list of reasons you absolutely must buy it right now. I just want to talk about it honestly, the way I would if we were sitting somewhere having a real conversation. I have been thinking a lot lately about how to share this book with more people, particularly with the writing and reading communities that I genuinely respect and engage with, and I […] -
Wonderment Within Weirdness Is Weirdly an Anti-War Novel
Sometimes you write a book and only later realize what it was actually about. That might sound strange, but it happens more often than people think. Stories have a way of revealing their deeper meanings after the fact, sometimes months or even years after they are written. When I first wrote my debut novel, Wonderment Within Weirdness, I was not sitting there thinking, “I am going to write an anti-war novel.” That was not the plan. The goal was much simpler and honestly much more chaotic. […] -

When Rejection Feels Personal
I’ve always believed that if you put your heart into something — really try — eventually, it will be seen. But lately, I’m not so sure.
