The Otherfolk
The Otherfolk book #1
When Princess Anna Carillo and her best friend Peter decide to run away from the castle, they know it's risky. The east side of the island has always been off-limits, and they've never found out why. But they never thought they would find a whole other world full of mythical creatures and magical plants. As enemies arise, tragedies strike, and mysteries unfold, Anna becomes more and more unsure of who she can trust.
What more does she not know about the island — and what other lies is she being told?
If you like fantastical dystopia and a touch of mystery, this book is for you! Told through alternating perspectives, The Otherfolk weaves the story of Anna Carillo and Peter McCraft, two teens who will give everything to find freedom—and, on the way, stumble into a massive, magical cover-up. I loved the dynamics in this found family, and rooted for them until the end! Perfect for middle-grade readers or anyone who enjoys a good-sized dose of laughter and magic!

Beyond the Wall
The Otherfolk book #2
Anna and her friends are no closer to stopping the fires blazing on the coast of Beyond. There seems to be no end to the list of things Anna doesn't understand—somehow, even her best friend only serves as a reminder of what she's lost and what she could lose.
What will it cost to keep the fires from consuming all of Beyond—and is it a price Anna is willing to pay?
Firefly Tales
Fireflies are like tiny candles flickering in the night, lighting the way through fields and forests alike. Tiny glimmers of hope, they illuminate those unseen pathways that lie just beyond the dark—and the thirty hope-filled young authors and artists who collaborated in this anthology are daring to do just that with their stories.
These twenty-six original illustrated tales invite us to look for the way home, to discover the hope hiding behind the shadows—and to know that the light will always triumph over the darkness in the end.
A short story of mine, The Sanctuary, is one among 26 fantastic short stories featured in Firefly Tales. I receive no proceeds from sales.
