Stories should take you places—and mine do, from the deepest reaches of space to every corner of the Earth. I write because I love reading, the kind that tilts your world and keeps you up one more chapter, then another, and another, on ‘til dawn. That passion lives in every series I’ve created: Backyard Starship for high-octane adventure among the stars, The Messenger for epic mecha war sagas, Starcaster for sweeping space opera powered by sorcery and intrigue, and Halfway Witchy for magic, humor, and heart here on Earth. Along the way I’ve written more than seventy novels and a dozen short stories, each built to pull you in fast and not let go. If you come to books to get lost—in wonder, in action, in characters who feel like friends— well, you’re in the right place. Start anywhere, and you’ll find clear stakes, big worlds, and the hopeful spark at the center of every tale I tell. Ready to travel? Choose a series, pick a book, and begin your escape today.
