Current Project: in-progress

I am in the final stages of editing an illustrated middle-grade novel, which I have been putting my heart and soul into for the past few years. 

This is the story I've always wanted to create, and it has been an incredible journey so far.

Below is the only (short) story that I have shared publicly, although I have written many more and there are several waiting to be written.

In this video you can listen to me narrate my story of The Icicle and watch the whole process as it comes to life while I draw.
