Myth Bringer, the final book in the Mythical Menagerie series, is finally here! If you’ve been wondering ever since the day Ambrose discovered the hidden Repository – and the creatures locked inside it – what would happen to them, the time has finally come. I used to think mythical creatures needed protecting. Turns out, the…

If you’ve been following my books for a while, you might notice something new: the Mythical Menagerie e-books are now in Kindle Unlimited. For the past nine years, the series has been available on multiple e-book platforms (Amazon, Kobo, Apple, etc.). But recently I took a proper look at the numbers, and the difference between…

It’s release day for A Whisper of Reverie, the final instalment (at least for the foreseeable future) of my Reverie Flash Fiction series. And I honestly think it contains some of my best fantasy flash fiction stories to date! To celebrate release day, the e-book is $0.99 for a limited time. You can grab your…

As part of planning my writing goals for 2026, I’ve made the decision to wind down and close my Ream subscription. This wasn’t an easy choice, but after a year of trying the platform, it’s become clear that it’s not the right fit for where I am in my writing career right now. I wanted…

Medieval bestiaries are such a wonderful blend of imagination, symbolism, and questionable zoology – and this article…

Think gothic libraries, elite universities, tweed jackets, masked secret societies, moody Humanities students, and a touch of the occult. If Dead Poets Society met The Secret History, that atmospheric space in between is exactly what dark academia captures – and it’s one of my favourite aesthetics. Recently, I fell down a bit of a rabbit…

I wrote Beginner’s Luck, the first instalment of the Mythical Menagerie series, back in 2017. All I had was a spark – a character with an unusual (to me, at least) name who goes on adventures and finds mythical creatures. I had no idea where the story would take me… or how much it would…

Friends, I’m in my rebranding era! After updating the covers for the Mythical Menagerie series, I set my sights on the Reverie Flash Fiction series too. When I first collected the stories into A Spark of Reverie, I hadn’t actually planned to sell it. I’d been sending out a free story each month to my…
