Poetry News:
My fourth poetry collection, Between Blue Moons, is currently in editorial, being carefully sequenced.
My debut novel, The Echo in the Flame, is complete and preparing for publication, with an advanced eBook release date of spring 2026. The Echo in the Flame is a literary novel about love, inheritance, and the quiet forces that shape who we become. Centered around Caroline Loraine, the story follows a woman navigating ambition, intimacy, and the weight of what is passed down through family and unfinished choices. Spanning cities, inner lives, and moments of stillness, the novel explores limerence and how identity is forged in the spaces between what we inherit and what we claim for ourselves. It is a meditation on becoming, mindfulness, and finding the courage to listen to one’s fire within.
