New & Upcoming
The Last Surveyor - Been sitting on the completed draft of the Fantasy novel for most of the last year and generating agent queries for it. Response rate is much higher than with Above the Storms but still no takers. (Makes me wonder if self-publishing and having very good ratings on Amazon, makes agents more likely to reject you politely?)

Had an interview with one agent. She was very polite, but the more I looked at my notes and the questions she asked, the more it seemed she didn't 'get' what I was going for. Still, grateful for the consideration. |
NEW December 2022: A one off fantasy adventure set in my same fantasy world. A young female skeptic (halfling) and young male cleric (human) raised in an abbey are sent across the kingdom to help establish a new abbey. Challenges await them every step of the way: almost killed on their journey, abbey burned to the ground before they arrive, and an entire community set against them.

The first 20k words flowed almost without effort. It's got a classic fantasy feel with mystery and unknown dangers. |
