Get the new award-winning short story with a young adult female lead!

I write books with strong female leads! Whether that’s my fantasy books, my nonfiction memoirs, or my short stories. I write them that way because I want to see myself represented in books!

I also write a variety of diverse characters – like AJ Bluehorse in my Idol Maker series, and Chen in my strong women pirate series, because I want to see the diversity I see in the world in my books!

I also write non-fiction books to help writers in their journey, I run a publishing company that publishes books with strong female lead characters, and I’m founder and CEO of Women’s Thriller Writers Association.

I’m also an adventure seeker. I was lucky to go to Iceland (picture above) a few years ago when it was safe-ish to get close to flowing lava! It was a cold and windy day, but worth the hike up a mountain to see it!
