I got my start in writing with collaborative fanfiction. Eventually, I started doing original stories. I have lucid dreams, and I got in the habit of telling myself stories before I fell asleep so I could try to direct the dreams. Most of my ideas come from those stories and dreams.

Nothing I write is ever set in stone. I'm constantly editing and polishing. If something seems bare-bones and not up to par, don't worry, I'm working on it. I usually like to hammer out most of a story before I go back and dress it up with more details. Always check the publishing date for the most up-to-date changes. The curse of perfectionism.

Disclaimers:
- I am a Christian, and, with rare exceptions, I don't read or write LGBTQIA+ or explicit content, although I don't shy away from mature themes.
- My knowledge of spelling, grammar, and punctuation all comes from my background growing up in the USA and using US English.
- I follow official Wattpad profiles, users who host and judge awards, and favorite authors, so if you follow me and want to know why I didn't follow you back, this is why. But thank you, and I'll try to look into your books to see if I like your style and want to follow you. :)

Technicalities:
I write in Google Docs using the free version of ProWritingAid as an editing tool, which I recommend highly. It has multiple English usages, too, so you can select the one that fits your country.

What I'm up to:
- ADT: massive edit/rewrite underway
- Everything else (ABT, The Hidden Crystal, Second Chances, The Emerald Kingdom, and several more stories I haven't published yet): on hold for edits/rewriting when I get the time and inspiration
- Judging: Science Fiction in the Blossom Awards 2024
- Reviewing: The Touch by @eclipswe__ and The Last Philosopher by @NickfEast
