Hello Friends ~

To Writers: 

I'm putting this statement on the website because I've received quite a few inquiries, and it's easier than responding to individual emails, especially since I don't log in regularly. 

As many of you know, I closed down temporarily on December 31 (permanently, January 2026). At that time, I remained open to small writing projects from long-time clients. But after attempting two consultation sessions and two small writing projects, I've decided not to take on any further work. This includes copyediting, though it's worth noting that I haven't performed copyediting since 2021, as built-in editing features in Word and free AI tools have made copyediting widely available to everyone. (And I have never been a developmental editor, so that has never been on the table anyway. 😊)

I want you to know that stepping away has nothing to do with any of my beloved clients — you've all been wonderful. Building worlds for you has been an absolute joy, and we've had a great time together.  Although I'm a very private person, I will say that I'm stepping back to tend to a chronic pain condition that has worsened over the years. 

From the bottom of my heart — thank you for trusting me with your stories. It has been a true honor.

To Readers:

Historical archive of past publications (zines, novelettes, anthologies, and chapbooks) from 2005–2010 and free copies of works from 2002-2004 are no longer available on the website. However, digital copies of many will be available for purchase on Amazon. There will be no bells, whistles, pre-order links, or marketing campaigns.  This is a totally passive legacy project with extremely reasonable prices.  One directional link will be updated when the works are available.

Thank you!
