I'm trying to update more frequently in the next few months during #selfisolation - hit me up if there's something in particular you'd like to read!

I am a 23-year-old science nerd with a passion for stories!

I never get tired of seeing the same general plot modernised or reworked, just to see how the same characters exist in a new setting. Literally any adaptions - I am there!

My favourite characters to read and write:
1) The bad guy: Someone with arguably awful intentions or opinions who does the right thing either grudgingly or by accident.
2) Not-the-hero: The character who is not the most important person in the story, despite being the protagonist, and both deserves and receives none of the glory.

Who are your favourite general characters?

My writing:
Blood of the Devil - will eventually be completed but I wouldn't hold your breath. I think I started writing this about ten years ago (trust me, you can tell!) and while I've always known the ending it's proven difficult to put into words. I will finish it... eventually...
Katalyst - My first even completely finished novel! I'm very proud. It's the first of 3 and I'm hoping they'll be up here within the next 2 years.
Try to Change Me - I'm going to be honest with you, unless there is suddenly a mountain of interest in this book, it will never be finished. I'm happy to post a massive summary chapter of what would have happened if anyone wants but I don't think anyone is that emotionally invested.
Husband Wanted - This series is my current baby and I am very excited! It's my first foray into Historical Fiction so critical appraisal is encouraged. There will be 6 books in this series (+ a novella) and the more interest there is, the faster they will be written!

If you're interesting in any amateur editing (In a read-for-read, comment-for-comment kind of fashion) then PM me and we can work something out!
