The Abandoned Realm
Genre: Fantasy
Audience: Adult
When a writer abandons a story, its characters are exiled to the Abandoned Realm—a purgatory of forgotten plots and unfinished arcs. But as belief in fiction wanes, the boundary between reality and imagination begins to decay. Now, a once-heroic character turned villain has torn a portal between realms, unleashing monsters and chaos upon San Francisco. Bex, a failed writer haunted by her past and her own abandoned character, may be the only one who can close the breach. Together, they must battle literal and emotional demons in a race to restore balance. The Abandoned Realm is a genre-bending tale of redemption, narrative magic, and the enduring power of storytelling.
The Renna Hood Dulogy
Genre: Fantasy
Audience: Adult
Tags: Romantasy
In this lush, gender-bent Robin Hood reimagining, blood magic pulses beneath the surface of a kingdom ruled by fear and divine control. Crown Princess Renna harbors forbidden magic in her veins, hiding it behind pious rituals—until it's discovered, and she’s forced to flee into the cursed Sherwood Forest. But Sherwood is no deadland. It hums with life, secrets, and a band of outlaws who welcome Renna into a hidden rebellion. As darkness rises from within both the forest and the crown, Renna must decide if she’ll remain in hiding or become the hooded protector her people need. With elemental magic, slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance, and folklore-inspired worldbuilding, The Renna Hood Duology is a spellbinding fantasy perfect for fans of One Dark Window, The Foxglove King, and The Witcher.
