About
I write stories about monsters, magic, mountains, and survival.
​
I'm still angry at the college professor who told me "teenagers don't have meaningful conversations." Every book I write is a direct middle finger to him. And also a hug to all the weird, queer, wonderful kids out there who continue to amaze me.
​And probably a replacement for therapy.
I should unpack that sometime.

Third place WINNER of
Forest and Fawn's Manuscript Challenge!
Sixteen-year-old trans girl Kavya has always struggled to reconcile her Hindu faith with the way her pacifistic community of necromancers treats their skeleton workers. Now that her grandmother is among those ranks, she’s going to confront her grief the only way she knows how: by talking to her dadi’s bones.
Unfortunately, the community frowns on disturbing the skeletons. They’ll think she’s toying with magic that could drive them all murderously insane—a danger that shapes their way of life.
​
Then a new undead shows up: a fleshy monster that couldn’t have been made with their bone-based magic. And Kavya is the only witness when it smashes the leader’s head into a wall.
Thrown into a hurricane of blood-dripping creatures, decades-old conflicts, and insanity-inducing magic, Kavya will need to unravel both the monster and the conspiracy that created it before the community turns on itself.
