Owl of the Pale Moon is my first novel and is available now from online retailers. The story is a queer dieselpunk fantasy for fans of Howl’s Moving Castle. Even if you’re not a part of the queer community, I'm confident you’ll enjoy this tale of magic, swashbuckling adventure, and loving yourself for who you are.
What would you do if the chance to escape your miserable life came crashing down to earth?
Cassie, a miserable factory worker and a Changer besides, dreams of learning magic and escaping the capitalist hellscape. One day her wish comes true when a powerful wizard-cum-phantom thief crash-lands in her sleepy town. Next thing she knows, Cassie is whisked away on a magical flying ship, learning wizardry, seeing the world, and discovering the secrets of her beautiful new teacher.
Before long, Cassie is swept up in daring heists, perilous expeditions into fey-infested jungles, tangling with a werewolf, and being stalked by a strange man in a mask. And that’s all on top of her magic lessons and discovering the secrets of the magical flying House Brandwyck.

She got the girl, but lost her home. Can Cassie keep her found family together and save the world?
Cassie was once a miserable factory worker, but when Gwynne crash-landed in her sleepy town, everything changed. Now, she's a fledgling wizard, a phantom thief, and an enemy of the kingdom. Now, House Brandwyck must rebuild by tearing down corrupt capitalists all over the continent if they ever hope to return to the skies once more.
But trouble follows the House wherever they go. Along the way, they'll have to navigate runaway train mysteries, trouble in the tropical paradise of The Emerald Coast, crumbling ruins in the desert kingdom of Osria, cutthroat sky pirates, and a pyromaniacal new religion sweeping the kingdom. Besides, Cassie quickly learns that a relationship isn't all sunshine and rainbows, and she'll have to conquer the toughest trial of all: self-acceptance.
All the while, the Kingdom of Zona is undergoing drastic changes under new management, an upcoming political summit will define the future of the entire continent, and a sinister threat is building beneath the capital.
Cassie, Gwynne, and company will need to use their brains, brawn, and magic to solve mysteries, fight eldritch monstrosities, make new friends, and tangle with cultists. Can they save the world, and maybe learn to love themselves along the way?
