About

I write edgy/contemporary novels, and am an author + artist + general non-conformist ;)

My first two books (EyeLeash: A Blog Novel, and 4:Play)are multiple-genre-crossing. I enjoy including psychological andemotional elements in my work, as I believe this adds a level of depthand authenticity to the story + characters.

Story Behind The Book

Reviews

“I was surprised that I ended up liking “Wicked Lovely”. Not too into the whole incest thing, especially in brother-sister relationships. (I have a brother myself, so thinking about that sort of theme is generally something I don’t indulge in.) But it worked in this story. I can only think of one other instance in which a brother-sister relationship didn’t bother me (Angel Sanctuary series). The fact that they were brother and sister is overshadowed by their sheer desire to be with one another, that that other person is the only person for them. That made the story for me.”<br />— Review by <a href="http://basementtime.livejournal.com/5458.html">The Basement Crew</a>.
