About Me
I’m a voice writer. I love giving my characters separate narrators with unique dialects, philosophies and dispositions. Some snarky. Some sweet. Some utterly deranged. But all possessing enough positive and negative traits to qualify as recognizably human. Sometimes these narrators have their own stories. Sometimes they coexist in the same story. Always they are determined to prove they represent the one true protagonist. There's no omniscient narrator, so the reader has to figure out which characters to trust and identify with at any given moment. This makes my writing an empathy accelerator and critical thinking catalyst.
