Intrinsic

Rebekka’s family is dead, and Conrad, a private investigator and a father figure to her, doesn’t think it was an accident. Intrinsic is Rebekka’s saga, as she navigates her grief and becomes increasingly aware of a malevolent entity that has latched itself onto her life.

“While my distinct memories of the accident faded, the fire, the smell of gasoline and smoke, and a pair of eyes – dull gray and animalistic – haunted my frequent dreams. And every night as I drifted to sleep, I could feel a dark, heavy presence looming in the shadows. Watching me.”

The Fickle Chronicles

In January of 2018, a group of friends asked me to write a choose-your-own-adventure book based on their celebrity crushes.  So, I did.  And I promised to write a new one every January until the day I die.  What you see here is the continued result of that promise - a series of surreal, often-violent fantasy-romance choose-your-own-adventure books that you will either hate, love, or be mildly concerned about.​ Feel free to explore the whimsical vomit of my often semi-conscious mind at your own risk.

Books Written During My Childhood

​

Proceed With Caution

The Triqan Trilogy

The Triqan Trilogy was the first series I wrote and self-published, and as such, it has a special place in my heart. I wrote The Key to Yamal when I was 14 years old and put it out on Amazon about a year later. The other two books came shortly after, and I finished the trilogy a couple months before I turned 18.


If you are considering reading these books, I must put a huge disclaimer that I was ages 14-17 when I wrote them; thus, they are not my best work. But they were an important stepping stone in my development as a writer. To be perfectly honest, I have been tempted to remove these from sale, out of plain embarrassment. In the end, however, I have decided to leave them up, because I believe it is important for young people to see that not everyone starts out being great at what they do.


So read these books with a salt shaker handy and enjoy the excited imagination of a fledgling writer.

Ten Kingdoms Trilogy

The Ten Kingdoms Trilogy is a sequel series to The Triqan Trilogy and highlights the most developmental years of my young authorship. I wrote the first book, The Walls of Remant, when I was 18 years old, and I finished the last one at 21, a few months after I graduated from college.


As with The Triqan Trilogy, I ask for your patience and grace. I was tempted to remove these books from sale (same as the last series), but I believe it is important to showcase the development of my younger self into the writer that I am today. In these books, you can not only see the burgeoning of my creativity, but you can track the development of my writing skill from knowing practically nothing to learning about concepts such as character development, tension, and perspective.


So grab your salt shaker once again, put away your red pen, and enjoy this entertaining, sometimes confusing, and ultimately very chaotic amalgamation of Me.

Story Starts

The Wild

St. Caleb's

All three of these books fall into a similar category as the previous ones.  They were fun books that I wrote and self-published as a kid, and the writing and plot structures within are indicative of that fact.  They are like a child's art project that you hang on your fridge, not because it's "good," per se, but because you're proud of the kid.  And that's why these books still exist on this website and on Amazon - I'm proud of the kid.  So please don't judge them too harshly.  Just smile and say, "Wow, you really did write those books back then.  Good job."  And consider that the pictures I'm drawing today are likely a lot different than the crayon sketches I was creating back then.
