How’s everyone doing?

Life update, April 2025

How’s everyone doing?  It’s April, and I’ve got 96 days left until the eBook release of The House. I’m still working on the manuscript, but I feel strangely calm. I started on the first illustration yesterday, and it seems like less of a struggle this time. 

On the art front, I published my first-ever fine art prints based on my paintings. I took the photos and did the post-production in Photoshop, and I’m really happy with the results. 

Renovation-wise, I fixed the shed roof last week (at least it won’t fall off), and this week I’m stuck with trimming trees and shredding green waste. 

Ah! And I started on an audio book edition for the Fragments using ElevenLabs. More about that soon! 

That’s about it from me, really.

New here? I write adult fantasy that sits somewhere between dystopia, post-apocalyptic fiction, and science fiction—complex, a little dark, unapologetically nerdy. 
I’ve published two books in a trilogy called The Spheres—The Fragments (2022), The House (2025)—and am working on Book Three. If you enjoyed this post, why not sign up to my newsletter?
