I have been crafting stories as long as I can remember. The audience I write for has been, primarily, myself, though I'd label it YA or NA, in nature.

I'm around twenty years old, now, but I still read anything from J to NA, I'm not very fond of books in the Adult category, though I'm a bit partial to the works of Jim Butcher in the arena of Urban Fantasy. I also enjoy Anne Rice UF books, but haven't found the time to really delve into that pool of literature, yet.

Currently, my writing revolves around Fairytale Retellings. Currently, my retellings are, for the most part, pretty traditional in nature. My Sleeping Beauty retelling is largely inspired by Perault's version of the tale, for example, and my vision for a Beauty and the Beast retelling is more along the lines of La Belle et la Bete, rather than Disney's incarnation.

Eventually, I have plans of UF retellings of a smaller selection of these fairytales, including Sleeping Beauty and Snow White.

Currently, I am posting chapters two or three times a week, but this may change, as my writing pace is vastly outstripping my posting pace, albeit with other projects. I believe that, once The Sleeping Prince has come to a close, I will be posting updates for two stories, in tandem with each other, two or three times weekly.

Thank you for reading my About Me, have a wonderful day!

Solidifying my reputation, on Wattpad, is important to me. I don't want it to look like I'm going to flit, project to project, without reserve. I want to show that I finish stories, too.
