A thoroughly twisted individual
Smoke Without Ash
Throughout the kingdoms, prophecies tell of a Hero of Destiny who will save humankind from an unimaginable horror: the Smoke without Ash. The dragons of the world are determined to find this hero — they find three.
Gather, Ye Heroes
Tianis is a career soldier. Torg is a young man just coming of age. Elsbeth is the daughter of a master sword maker. Each finds themselves confronted by a creature straight out of myth, a dragon. Each is anointed by the dragons as the Hero of Destiny, a prophesied warrior that will lead the forces of men and dragons against the Smoke Without Ash.
But there can only be one...
Captivating Fantasy and Masterful Storytelling
Gather, Ye Heroes is filled with complex storylines that weave together effortlessly. As a reader, I tend to get easily confused when epic fantasies use multiple POVs — but not once did it happen with this story. Each character’s journey is distinct yet subtly connected, making their stories truly captivating.
Each hero’s journey is filled with vivid side characters readers are sure to fall in love with, from the mischievous Ian trio — One-Eye, Two-Eye and No-Eye — to the king’s quirky philosophers. The heroes’ stories are enriched by their newfound relationships, further bringing these characters to life.
Readers are in for a journey of a lifetime in Gather, Ye Heroes — and even a shocking twist or two. As the first in what’s sure to be an epic new series, the ending will leave readers satisfied yet eager for more. — Katie Bloomer, BookTrib

Onward, Ye Heroes
In the conclusion to the Smoke Without Ash duology, Tian, Torg, and Elsbeth find their destinies entwined. Together, they must face the Dark as it works toward the subjugation of the world. Together, they must face their fates, standing on the front line defending the world from the forces of the Smoke without Ash.
They are driven by prophecies that extoll one of them to be the Hero of Destiny that saves mankind. But prophecy is never clear, and they do not know which of them is the foretold Hero . Their positions may be in question, but still the Dark advances. Out of time, they must find a way to work together, hoping they can answer the question before it is too late.
Join the Heroes as they fight to preserve the living world; for where the Smoke without Ash goes, life disappears.
Current Project
Signifying Nothing
I am currenly working on a new book. A complete break from my former work, I am writing something a little lighter. After all, not every adventure can be a quest to save the world. Sometimes you need save breakfast. Or your sanity.
I am still busy marketing Onward, Ye Heroes, so progress will be slow for a bit. But progress will be made. For those of you who enjoyed my previous works, I hope that this change of pace does not disappoint. I don't believe it will.
P.S. For those of you who did not catch the significance of the title, it is from Shakespere.
