Welcome Thriller Fans!

I’m celebrating my first month as a published author!

On June 1^st, 2026, I hit the publish button on my website, and my book listing went live for my debut psychological thriller novel, Painter’s Beach. There was a lot more to the process behind the scenes, but with the ups and downs, I am happy to admit that I’m already addicted to being an author.

I’ve wanted to start a blog for some time now, but I wasn’t sure exactly where to begin or what I wanted to say. After some thought, I decided I want to feature a few different blog post subjects. Right now, I’m brainstorming these subjects:

• Author Updates & Events

• My Publishing Journey

• Fan Fiction

• New Ideas

• Poetry

Although none of these categories are set in stone, I love the idea of sharing everything with you if you’re willing to read!

I appreciate your support in my journey as a new indie author, and I am always open to suggestions. Feel free to leave comments about what you’d like to read about and what you want to know!

Happy Reading!
