Works In Progress

Hello all! 

This page is dedicated to the WIPs that are currently ACTIVE, or I am strongly considering to have published in the near future. I have had several WIPs over the course of my writing hobby, several of which have been retired off of this page - so if you come looking for a specific WIP and it's not here, that's why! 

All covers shown are mock covers created by myself. They are subject to being replaced by more professional covers in the near future.  


Current WIPs





Epics of Verden 1: The White Rose of Duventoliel (TWR)

A princess who lost it all. 

A king who seeks to find it. 

And a princess who may hold the key in her hand. 

Princess Janina Sigurdnir could not be happier as she assists her older sister, Princess Magdalena, in the preparations for the coming Karala Games. As suitors come from all corners of Verden, rumors swell that the malicious Taikan clans are causing unrest....and that King Ealdread would be competing once again to secure a consort to the throne of Aistaraina.

But mere days before the Karala Games are set to begin, a scandal rocks the royal family… 

Thrust into a marriage tournament that is not her own, Janina must learn to navigate around sisterly jealousy, foreign sabotage, and a persistent pair of matchmakers…or Chaos will surely reign!

Epics of Verden 2: The Midnight Cave of Aistaraina

Gail is an ordinary teenage techie junkie. When her parents insist on her taking a camping vacation, she is not at all pleased. But when a storm breaks and she is forced into a cave for shelter, her phone is whisked away to Aistaraina...wherever that is.

With the portal suddenly closed, Gail is forced to adapt to her new surroundings. As she becomes accustomed to Aistaraina's way of life, she becomes aware of several races of creatures. Creatures that seem harmless but Gail suspects of having dark motives. 

When the children of Aistaraina start showing signs of a mysterious disease, Gail is determined to find the cause. What she doesn't know is that she has been lured to Aistaraina...and her tempter is coming for her...   

Main Focus: Prince Conlaoch Leofwine of Aistaraina and Abigail Duncan of Tawra
Themes: the good and the bad of technology in a fantasy setting, social commentary on the coronavirus. 


Stats: 
Stage: 1st draft, in pieces.

Fair Winds
Vol. 1: Adrift in a Fair Wind 

Ciara Arlen has been ostracized by her community for as long as she can remember - her parent's deaths are the final straw to the gossip fire. Anxious to run away from her past, she and her younger sister Grace take up an offer to live with their uncle in America - rashly starting before her uncle's escort can arrive to ensure their safety.

Upon reaching Portsmouth, they meet a stranger with promises to help them reach their uncle's ship. Little did the girls know that they were walking straight into a trap - set by pirates with a grudge against their uncle.

So when another, much more charming and handsome, stranger, attempts to help them escape, Ciara doesn't know what to think. Does she blend into the pirate crew for survival, or does she throw caution to the wind again in an attempt to extradite herself from them?

Main Focus: many aspects of femininity, dangers of gossip. 

My second BP post was dedicated to Ciara and Grace's parents, Leo and Jacinta.

Stage: 2nd draft, halfway complete. 


Vol. 2: Anchored in a Stormy Sea

After running away again, Ciara Arlen has struck out alone in a stolen ship. With the British navy after her, she has little choice left but to head for the Caribbean islands in hopes of gaining a crew. 

After a storm throws her onto the island shore of Moreno with little strength left, she is ready to give herself up for lost forever. A native girl - and her extensive tribe - soon force a change of outlook. 

Just as Ciara is gaining her confidence back, she spots a British flag on the horizon....and her former lover Colin Raeburn on the beach. Will she run away again, or will she finally repair the bridges that she tried to burn? 


Main Focus: continuation of Ciara's journey.

Stage: 1st draft, in pieces.  

 A climactic scene was written into the post, The Ocean, She Plays.
