I'm getting back into long-form writing after a year of short stories. And of course, despite my other novels being around 70k words, I'm going to attempt a 100k+ book.
Send me strength and patience 🤞

Happy New Year! I published my last story of 2025 last night.
When Krampus and the Winter King make peace, two rival swordsmen are denied their yearly fight. They decide to test their skills more privately. Cocktails and mistletoe follow. 7k.

An absolute banger of a list. If you don't know what to read, let Jamedi pick a book for you <3
It's time to finally talk about my favourite books of 2025, so I made a list, without any kind of order, that pretty much covers it. It may be great to fill your TBR!
