Indoor skydiving for her birthday, Nosferatu excitement, and an updated subscription plan for her readers.

Fantasy and Archives (& Pics of My Cat!)

Y’all know I love me some fantasy. So when a lovely agent wrote an amazing rejection for me a few months ago, urging me to rewrite Sinner Sharpe or submit something new, I took the chance to write something new. ​

The New Year & A New Focus On My Vampires

I’m choosing, with this round of storytelling, to dive into ‘harder topics,’ and things I want to write about. I want to give my worlds more nuance, my characters more stakes, and hopefully more heart. I write for everyone but I cannot deny my experiences–Black experiences–are what have shaped me and should shape my writing. I’m adamant about this because of the erasure of my Black characters in THE DARK WORLD series by white readers.

Gothic Horror And Inspiration

It was always my intention as of late, with Sinner Sharpe to delve into the horror he’s facing–not physical horror–at least not yet, but the mental horror. He’s seeing horrific visions, he’s losing large gaps of time, he’s being attacked on his ship (an already enclosed space) for weeks.
