Every story has a purpose. For me, writing isn’t just about creating worlds, building characters, or plotting out intense scenes. It’s about bringing raw, unfiltered experiences to the page the kind that make you stop, think, and feel.

When I started writing, I didn’t set out to be an author. I set out to capture the reality of life behind the walls, the untold stories of those who live and work in correctional facilities. I wanted to give a voice to the people who often go unnoticed, to the struggles and triumphs that rarely make it into the spotlight.

That’s why I write about correctional officers. That’s why I write about fractured multiverses and alternate dimensions. Because every story, whether grounded in reality or stretched to the edges of science fiction, has the power to make us see the world and ourselves a little differently.

So, whether you’re here for the adrenaline-pumping action, the gritty realism, or the mind-bending alternate realities, I hope you find something that resonates. Something that hits close to home.

Thanks for reading. Stay tuned the journey is just beginning.
