Oathbound

COMING EARLY 2026

Never expected her life to turn into a fantasy novel—especially the kind with stolen husbands, explosive magic, unhinged friendships, and adult-only intermissions.

She’s a newly awakened witch with no manual, no patience, and no chill, stumbling through danger with people she loves and language she shouldn’t use in public.

I started my writing career when I was sixteen, writing for Hj Magazine in the Syracuse Herald Journal in the 90’s. In my adult years, I became one of the OG mommy bloggers — back when blogging was basically the Wild West and we were all unhinged in the best possible way.

These days I’ve focused mostly on social media marketing, but I’ve spent decades devouring fantasy novels like they were oxygen. Then, while beta-reading my friend Christy’s book, I had a moment:
I can do this too.

By then, I had just gotten my husband through stage four cancer, moved my father in, and asked myself:

“What would make me happy?”

The answer was simple: witchcraft and love — the two things that have always felt like home. So I put pen to paper, and this world spilled out of me.

I hope you’ll take this journey with me.
I can’t wait to see where it leads.
