Her first fairy tale, Zookeeper's Gorilla, will be released summer of 2024. Though she enjoys writing on a wide variety of subjects, including creative nonfiction, children’s books, and flash fiction, her passions lie in poetry, song, and tales to enjoy with family. She currently lives in a tiny, blue cottage just south of Houston, not far from the beach and comfortably close to horses. She enjoys living in the quiet, and when not reading, writing, or gaming, loves cooking, backyard fires with family and friends, and a really good cup of tea. Book ISBN: 9789358318609
