Once upon a midnight mild in Lawrenceville, Georgia, an author emerged from a Jeep coated in dust, caffeine, and questionable decisions. A cryptid magnet with a PhD in microbiology, a vet degree, and a vendetta against em dashes. By day, she restored haunted mansions. By night, she wrote tales where banshees found peace, alien warlords found love, and cursed antiques found new homes. Monsters didn’t scare her. Misused punctuation did. Her stories blend cozy horror and sci-fi romance with Southern gothic charm, where every shadow has a story, and every monster gets a second chance.
