Books & Stories
Two shelves, one voice
One shelf helps a four-year-old name what they are feeling. The other keeps an adult up past midnight. Both come from the same place: real life, told honestly.
Every full description, series note, and buying link lives on the books page. Longer writing and letters between releases live on the blog.
For the youngest readers
Children's social-emotional learning
Picture books written so a child can name a feeling, ask for a friend, and recover from a hard moment—and so the adult reading aloud has something to say next.

For after the kids are asleep
The other half of the desk. Same author, different register: slower dread, longer shadows, and people carrying more than they admit.
The thriller
Ghosts of Kiokee
A place remembers what the people in it would rather forget.
Written at the same desk as the picture books, out of notebooks, research stacks, and a lot of cold coffee. Ghosts of Kiokee sits on the author shelf alongside The Shelter and Human Ghost—stories about what people carry, and who finally sees it.
