Hi, there! I'm a young twenty-something who loves historical fiction, fantasy, westerns, and Celtic mythology. 

I am a writer for the Busted Gulch series by @storytellerssaloon - go check it out!

Please feel free to comment on any of my works - I would love the input! Constructive criticism is always welcome, as well as your reactions to my work. I try to avoid profanity in my writing, but some of my stories are set in difficult times, and I feel like my stories should accurately represent how humans behave. All that to say that if I think language is necessary for a scene, I'll use it, but otherwise I won't.

Some of my favorite authors: J.R.R. Tolkien, Rosemary Sutcliff, Louis L'Amour, Brian Jaques, and Christopher Paolini.
