My story “At Least No One Else Will Suffer” is a brief flash fiction piece about an evil fae king and his new queen. I can’t say too much else without giving away spoilers, but the set up plus the title might give you a clue about what happens. “At Least No One Else Will […]

“Just Smile” is one of a handful of yokai stories I’ve written, generally during Drawlloween (an October art challenge that I use for writing prompts).

But I included it in this collection because the protagonist of the story solves the case and has a happy ending. As the […]

I’ve got several books for kids, including steampunk and fantasy! The Trouble with the Tick-Tock Tabby is a middle grade book featuring girl detectives Chrysanthemum and Marigold Marsh. The setting is a steampunk Victorian era. The characters are 9 and 12 years old, which skews toward the younger end of middle grade, but the reading level […]

A Wild West icon meets her match, a budding scientist tests a theory in a dust storm, fashion turns deadly, a daughter learns the […]
