I'm happy to be here. I'm the author of the Above the Black YA fantasy trilogy, and I have an adult sci-fi publishing with Blackstone Publishing in November. Excited to be here and connect with others and to continually learn.

I’ve been to Dragonsteel Nexus several times. Maybe you’ve seen me or my buddies?? We’re the ones that always carry around the enormous swords. Fun fact: these blades are EXACT (or as near as) 3D Printed models of the Shardblades in the books. How do I know? We got the measurements and designs from the designer/artist themselves. And they signed them! I’m holding Taln’s Blade in this picture. Can’t wait to go back! (Hopefully as an exhibitor)
