Verity

Hello, hello, I'm Verity, I'm twenty-one, and I rewrite this bio whenever I feel like it no longer represents me accurately, which is concerningly frequent.

I love people. I write about them, I work with them, and I talk to them when I should be writing. Barring the event that you are an particularly unsavory being, I will aggressively befriend you (kidding, I save the aggression for after we're close enough to unlock my Mom Friend layer).

I work full time - day job and side author gig. I regret that I cannot read your story.

My niche interests include communication styles, fictional languages, cognitive function theory, and church history.

I war with the incompatible longings to be professionally intimidating and eminently approachable. The latter usually wins.

In 2016, I wrote a story about a young man faced with the weight of total responsibility for his family, and his sister who couldn't care less about the concept. For a while, I shared it on Wattpad. Now it's all grown up and published, but you can read an excerpt here and contact me on my website about discounted copies!

In general, you'll find my books are about family, reconciliation, and a touch of the bittersweet. I have three shorter works on here in full, so if you're in the mood for...

tragedy, high adventure, and archaic legend: try Flare in the Darkness, my dear valley of angst with a sweet romantic subplot.

alarmingly short chapters and lots of literary symbolism: are you sure you want to read A Cold Cry?? It's lowkey a disaster? a beloved disaster but still?? But by all means, go ahead.

depressing backstory, realism, and no fantastical content despite being in the fantasy genre: I wrote My 'Deia mostly for fans of my main series, but that's not to say it can't be an introduction to the series itself.

So yes, this be I. Enjoy your stay.
