  • Opinions

    Your opinion comes first. There are all sorts of people with all sorts of opinions, especially when it comes to your work, but the reality is your opinion is ultimately the only one that matters. As long as you’re not writing instruction manuals on how to get away with murder or something similar, or glorifying…

  • Book Writing Hangovers

    Apparently book writing hangovers are a real thing. And apparently that’s what I’ve been experiencing since putting Savior of the Damned up for pre-order.  It was no small feat to get here. I have devoted so much of the last two years to this it’s still a bit unreal I got here at all. I…

  • Discarding Work

    I made the executive decision to throw out fifty thousand words (not in Savior of the Damned, in case you’re worried). It was not made lightly, especially not after throwing out around fifty thousand words just a few months ago. For the record, none of it was bad. Most of it is also salvageable, at…

  • Savior of the Damned is Available for Preorder!

    It’s been a trial to get here, but I’m over the moon I finally made it. Two years of writing, revisions, editing, and beta reading have all paid off. It was not my first book ever written, but it was the first one I managed to get into publishing shape. I learned so much along…

  • Happy Bi Visibility Day!

    Happy bisexual visibility day! Part of my journey as a writer has been figuring out where my sexuality fits into the grand scheme of things. I don’t mean who I date or anything like that, but how honest did I want to be? Did I want to sit on it, considering the current climate of…

  • Savior of the Damned ARC announcement

    Savior of the Damned is done. The ARC is mostly ready now too, I’m just waiting on the cover. And let me tell you folks it has been an absolute rush of feelings. It’s not quite done yet, of course. I still have to format the actual book, and I have to send out the…

  • I Have Mastered Outlines

    Guys, gals, and nonbinary pals, I have learned how to make outlines work. I sort of saw how other people used them but it took a long time to figure out how to make them work. Maybe it’s because I’m neurodiverse. Maybe I just missed it by a mile. For whatever reason, it took a…

  • TW: Death

    My cat Albedo died today. He made it to sixteen when he decided it was time to go. And I’m here to talk about the loss of a cat who I loved very dearly.   I’ve been on this earth for a while now, and that has always included pets. Cats, dogs, birds, fish, you name…

  • Happy AAPI Month!

    It’s AAPI month. For those of you unfamiliar, it’s the month in the US where we celebrate people in the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities. The Filipino diaspora, of which I’m a part of, is the largest in the world, but our stories are vastly underrepresented. So starting Mother’s Day, May 14th, until May…

  • Announcement: ARC Copies of A Field of Beheaded Roses Available Now!

    That’s right folks, I’m releasing a poetry book, and you can get ARC copies for free to read and leave an honest review for! I love poetry, and I love writing it, but coming to terms with the specific type of vulnerability needed to release this volume meant it was languishing in the shadows. It’s…
