I’m a writer in Oakland. When I’m fortunate enough to have something published, I’ll add it to the list below.
Fiction
Dagny – novella, published April 22, 2023 by Nat 1 Publishing (link). Available on Bookshop.org and Amazon in paperbook or ebook.
Dagny embarks on what seems like a straightforward quest: to recover her family’s herd of reindeer, stolen by a troll and taken into a mystical Scandinavian forest. And she intends to use a straightforward sort of magic for the job: elven rune magic that her father taught to Dagny and her brother. But to survive an encounter with a dangerous shadow creature in the forest, Dagny must discover her own powers beyond anything she was taught, and she must confront what could present the most danger of all: the wild spirit inside herself.
